History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The University of Imaparlu is a major supplier of qualified medics in Gushemege Sector.
The planet is also noted for a rare type of stone found only here. It is known, for obscure reasons, as "Denebian Oil Jade" despite having no obvious link to Deneb Sector.
Imperial Landed Nobility[edit]
Imaparlu, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of two members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
World Starport[edit]
Imaparlu has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
World Technology Level[edit]
Imaparlu possesses a Technology Level of TL–10 or TL-A in Hexadecimal Notation.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land & Water: Grav belts and maturing gravcraft.
- Air: Greatly improved hybrid grav-aircraft.
- Space: Improved interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
- FTL: Jump Drive-1.
World Government[edit]
Imaparlu is governed by a Charismatic Dictatorship. Charismatic governments justify their ability to rule by simply asserting their right to rule. Charismatic dictatorships are young governments, coming as a recent change and rely on the leader(s) to supply head of government.
The Efont of Imaparlu has authority as Supreme Civil Leader of the planet.

World Economy[edit]
The Rurevayn Institute of Advanced Medical Physics & Bioengineering is well known for its developments in prosthetic and replacement surgery, medical instruments, biosensors, scanners, and medical software. The Institute forms part of the larger University of Imaparlu campus with many of the staff and students actively involved with both establishments. The Institute retains its independence with separate funding and a governing body divorced from the University. The Institute holds 35% of Abir's tradeport as a major part of its income.
Trade Data[edit]
The world forbids export of the Denebian Oil Jade as raw stone. Non-Imparlu immigrants are also strictly controlled, and outsiders who wish to work in the material have to convince the Efont that they understand the significance of the substance and will do it the proper honour.
Point of Industry: Medical Industry[edit]
The University of Imaparlu is a major supplier of qualified medics in Gushemege. Many of the newly graduated medics transfer to Rurevayn Institute of Advanced Medical Physics & Bioengineering (also on Imaparlu) where they undertake extensive research in the biotechnological fields. The university also boasts one of the best biogeneering facilities outside of Solomani or Hiver space. The whole biological science field is well supported within the university.

History-Era: New Era[edit]
Imaparlu hosted one of the most important naval bases in Strephon's safe area. The 912st BatRon/231st Fleet assigned as a Penetration Fleet and the 12146st AssltRonCol/1148th Reserve Fleet shared the facility.
When Virus arrived in form of a modern empire builder, he took control over the naval base and delivered a suicider to the mainworld's TL–A network. The local economy collapsed to TL–4 and became ruled by a brutal dictator, who claimed ownership over his population by his Imperial Nobility. A restrain of the Naval base in 1142 was successful, and an decap assault a year later replaced the former government with a representative democracy.
The Naval base is on a moon orbiting the inner gas giant. Over 20 million sentients, 74% of them robots, are living and working here. The facility has grown several times. The inner housing ring around a dock has still the flair of old imperial navy. Narrow corridors for hot bunking up to 5 stages, are frequently used by human workers who need a short sleep. The newer areas show the typical unification housing structure of the FDR fleets. Several large rooms around a central recreation area, shared by a group who is used to work and live together. A smaller complex has replaced parts of the old bunking. Those inner uniflats are special assigned and quite a lot are allocated for crews waiting to have the annual overhaul of their ship completed.
The facility was built completely subterranean during the rebellion. The main graph dock has a size of 600 by 200 by 90 meters and is able to host vessels of TF11. Two smaller docks were designed for the BL14, but even their size with a length of 305 metres is more than sufficient for more than one modern vessel. These three docks are often called the vac docks, as they are not under pressure, to distinct them form the so called suitless docks and bays, where most of the work is done. The base is divided into several sections, each with its own power supply, life support, a meson screen, surface sensors and deep mount meson defense, grouped around one of the large docks or 5 of the smaller bays. Deeper sections are grouped around fabrication facilities or storage. Each section has its own holographic network, a redundant TL-8 backbone shared between them.
Transport is mainly by grav floaters in the tunnels connecting the natural ilmeniti antra. The largest tunnels, between the 3 main docks, call once a year for the "traders race". Any starship able to carry 100dt of cargo can take part in the race.
