History & Background (Dossier)

Howarth is a small world with a relatively high population (700 million) and a good tech level (TL13). The pressure of population and the continous water shortage as led to a clear governmental objective, and a significant importance being placed on ordinances related to movement, housing, and water use. As a result whilst the government is entrusted to a competent President the real power lies in the Bects, or courts. These are drawn from a judicial profession which Howarthi can elect to enter from age 30, subject to passing a rigorous socio-ethical examination and legal apprenticeship. The average age of Becten is 45, and they are well regarded by the majority of the population, due to their near ideal balance of experience, good sense, and relative youth. It is this trust in the Becten that enables Howarthi to live easily with the prevalent extreme law level.

The Howartian jungles are the original home of the Vesu gliders.
