Mainworld Data[edit]
Karbi is a hot, inhospitable planet.
Point of Interest: Karbi Polymers[edit]
Unique chemicals which exist openly on the surface form an extremely flexible but hard wearing natural polymer. In order to have sole rights to the material, ReClaim-Tec, a Solomani plastic manufacturer, entered into a partnership with the sector Duke to establish an underground colony. The polymer is manufactured into a vast number of everyday products, but best known for its production of self-heating food packs, and use in filter masks, aqua equipment, and space suits.
History and Background[edit]
This world was colonized late in the Rule of Man.
Karbi has remained little more than a worker's dormitory and factory site. Only a small percentage of its population are permanent residents. Under the planet's charter this group is the only segment can vote in company elections or stand for office.
World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Karbi has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
Linguistic Topography[edit]
The following languages are among the most commonly used here:
- Anglic: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
- Vilani: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
