Luken is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Laraa Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector in the Domain of Vland.
  • During the Long Night this world was named Shamem Er.
