Outsaerrghfars is a small, forgotten dust-ball of a world featuring only a corporate-held environment dome housing roughly 5000 [[Vargr]].

The neglect of the original, token D-rated [[Downport]] has eroded it to a class-E. Faded signs advertising the crossroads importance of Outsaerrghfars are relics of this world's first survey, before the [[Democracy of Greats]] passed to Spinward and Coreward in their conquest.

Sytstem Data[edit]

The Outsaerrghfars system has no planetoid belts to draw prospectors and is largely barren of mining attention on the mainworld due to the cost of maintaining such operations. The third of its three Gas Giants is home to a Corsair Base that is mainly used as a transfer point to other Corsair Bases in the subsector. Refueling at the outermost Gas Giant incurs an increased chance of piracy. This backroads route is ideal for the underworld slave trade in Ourdzoeg Subsector.

The system's solar primary is busy consuming the local White Dwarf star; the pair are nicknamed "The Dancers" as the two bodies affect each other's rotation slightly.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Outsaerrghfars is a small, forgotten dust-ball of a world featuring only a corporate-held environment dome housing roughly 5,000 Vargr. Originally meant as a stepping-stone system to Coreward interests, Outsaerrghfars has become neglected as business was re-routed to Spinward; the Charismatic Great of the subsector drew more attention, business and security along their Jump-1 main. Since then, this mainworld has seen little other than the occasional trader or monthly resupply vessel meant to keep the landing field open in case the subsector route need be taken. The neglect of the original, token D-rated Downport has eroded it to a class-E. Faded signs advertising the crossroads importance of Outsaerrghfars are relics of this world's first survey, before the Democracy of Greats passed to Spinward and Coreward in their conquest. As of 1105, only the corporation of Thaeghz Hvaek Engnigharr ("Pack Pact to Success"; T.H.E. Corp) has provided minimal support for the oasis. The backroads of this world see little trade other than as a pipeline for a chain of Corsair Bases engaged in slaving and raiding of other ignored worlds in this subsector.

World Languages[edit]

World Government[edit]

Corporate Government is a running joke on Outsaerrghfars. Law is barely mentioned and weapons are carried openly on one's hip holster. The most frequent enforcement of the law is -- backwardly -- from the Corsairs who drop in for a quick refreshment or to have hushed planning huddles. Outsaerrghfars suffers only mild "business" visits by Corsairs. They extort protection money from the local Downport, as there is little Naval presence other than quarterly patrols.
