Frenzie is a nonindustrial vacuum world, which warrants 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.
  • 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.
  • The world serves as the subsector capital with the significant extra trade and prestige associated with that role.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Vilis Subsector of Spinward Marches Sector in the Domain of Deneb.
  • This world has an Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.

Description (Planetology)

Frenzie is a very cold planet, orbiting a tired red-dwarf star.

  • There is some evidence that the world once had an atmosphere and even supported life.
Frenzie has two stars in the star system.
