Orishada is a poor, low-population hellworld with a population less than 10,000 sophonts struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment.

• Hellworlds often offer daily, and sometimes even hourly, life-threatening situations to their inhabitants. Survivors often develop intense survival skills and tend to be grim realists.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Velous Subsector of Far Home Sector.

• Orishada is a Voluntarily Regressive World

System data

The primary is Shalos, an ordinary orange main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.42 Sols, a mass of 0.825 Sols and a diameter of 1.263 million km. The inner system consists of (I, II) two small vacuum worlds. (III) Orishada orbits within the habitable zone and is designated the mainworld. (IV) a large gas giant forms the starward part of the outer system. Orbital positions (V) through (X) are unavailable due to the presence of the companion star and its worlds. (XI) a sparse icy planetoid belt forms the spaceward part of its outer system. Orishada and the gas giant retain satellites.

The companion is Manar, an ordinary red main sequence star that orbits Shalos at a mean distance of 20.2 AU (orbital position (IX), 3.021 billion km). It has a luminosity of 0.04 Sols, a mass of 0.489 Sols and a diameter of 356,000 km. (I) a small standard atmosphere world orbits orbits within its habitable zone. (II, III) two small gas giants form the outer system. Both of the gas giants retain satellites.

World starport

Orishada has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World technology level

Orishada possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone and telegraphs, widespread printing.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Trains and early automobiles.
  • Water: Clippers and steam ships.
  • Air: Dirigibles, balloons, very basic rockets.

World government

Orishada is governed by a Participatory Democracy where eligible voters determine laws and policy. What determines an eligible voter varies. There may be smaller councils or regional bodies to draft the policies voted upon. Leadership of the government and all members of the bureaucracy are determined by the voting population.
