System Data

Bay-Tepok System

The primary is Bay, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.0268 Sols, a mass of 0.4258 Sols, and a diameter of 658,000 km. (I) an exotic atmosphere radworld orbits within the habitable zone. (II) Lemm, a small gas giant, (III) a trace atmosphere iceworld, and (IV) a trace atmosphere iceworld form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

Oswold Subsystem

The companion is Oswold, a magenta-coloured L-type brown dwarf orbiting primary at approximately 22 AU (orbital position (IX), 3.29 billion km) and has an orbital period of . It is not luminous, it has a mass of 0.063 Sols and a diameter of 60,000 km. (I) a vacuum worldlet forms the outer system. The world does not retain satellites.

(II) Lemm

(II) Lemm is a small gas giant that orbits Bay at a mean distance of 0.37 AU (55.4 million km) and has an orbital period of X year XX days XX hours. It has a diameter of 24,000 km and is a banded dark green colour. It retains a family of two major satellites of which the outer, (IIb) Tepok, is designated the mainworld.

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

Tepok possesses a Technology Level of TL–9.

  • Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics and satellite communication and data networks.
  • Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fusion power.
  • Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
    • Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
    • Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
    • FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.

World government

Tepok 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.
