Jump map from Travellermap.com

Solitude is a ring of many small worldlets (planetoids AKA an "asteroid belt"), not capable of retaining an atmosphere or water, and nonindustrial in nature.

• These worldlets warrant hazardous environment precautions.
• Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
• The worldlets require extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• It is a member of the Protectorate of Leset in the Xelan Subsector of Far Home Sector, which is part of the Distant Fringe.

• The far companion star is a territory of the Worlds of The Leader.

Astrography and Planetology

This star system is detailed using the Fringian Variant System Description.

• It is a member of the Ritos Cluster.

Solitude has three stars in the star system.

System Data

Wysoki-Solitude System

The primary is Wysoki, a dim red main sequence star: it and Chib, the companion star, orbit a barycenter located at 40.8 AU (orbital position (X), 6.1 billion km) and have an orbital period around one another of 335 years. Wysoki has a luminosity of 0.007 Sols, a mass of 0.331 Sols, and a diameter of 498,000 km. (I) a vacuum worldlet, (II) the Solitude Main Belt, designated the mainworld, (III) a planetoid belt, (IV) a large gas giant, (V) a trace atmosphere iceworld, and (VI) a vacuum worldlet form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

• The star experiences occasional flare activity.

Chib Subsystem

The companion is Chib, a dim red main sequence star that lies 81.4 AU from Wysoki (orbital position (XI), 12.2 billion km): the two stars orbit a barycenter located at 40.8 AU (orbital position (X), 6.1 billion km) and have an orbital period around one another of 335 years. Chib has a luminosity of 0.004 Sols, a mass of 0.273 Sols, and a diameter of 414,000 km. (I) an exotic atmosphere stormworld, (II) a thin atmosphere radworld, (III) a sparse stony planetoid belt, (IV) a ringed small gas giant, and (V) a ringed large gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

• The star experiences periodic flare activity.

Ordin Subsystem

The far companion is Ordin, a red subdwarf star that lies approximately 3,830 AU from Wysoki and Chib. It has a luminosity of 0.00103 Sols, a mass of 0.081 Sols, and a diameter of 109,000 km. (I) a vacuum worldlet, (II) a trace atmosphere iceworld, (III) a sparse icy planetoid belt, and (IV) a small gas giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

• The Ordin Subsystem is a territory of the Worlds of The Leader. The state maintains an active military presence in the subsystem.

Mainworld Data

(II) Solitude Main Belt

(II) the Solitude Main Belt orbits within the outer system and is designated the mainworld. It lies at a mean distance of 0.38 AU from the star and is primarily made up of carbonaceous bodies with diameters of less than 50 km. The inner edge of the belt, with a higher concentration of nickel-iron bodies, is considered to lie at around 0.29 AU from the star and the outer edge of the belt, with a higher concentration of icy bodies, is considered to lie at approximately 0.47 AU. The main inhabited body is named Lonely, with a mean orbital distance of 0.36 AU around Wysoki and an orbital period of 137 days 3 hours. It has a long axis of 188 km, a density of 3.87 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.01 G. It retains no atmosphere and has no hydrographics. Mean surface temperature: -75°C in sunlight, -175°C in shadow.

Native Lifeforms

Wysoki-Solitude System

No world in the system is known to have native life.

Chib Subsystem

No world in the subsystem is known to have native life.

Ordin Subsystem

No world in the subsystem is known to have native life.

History & Background (Dossier)

The primary and companion stars of the Solitude system are members of the Protectorate of Leset.

• It is the site of a Protectorate forced labor camp.

The far companion star is a territory of the Worlds of The Leader. That state maintains an active military presence within the subsystem.

World starport

Solitude 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.

World technology level

Solitude 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

Solitude is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.
