System Data

Chenku-Emderim System

The primary is Chenku, an ordinary red main sequence star. It has a luminosity of 0.0202 Sols, a mass of 0.3942 Sols, and a diameter of 604,000 km. (I-I) a vacuum worldlet, (I-II) a very thin atmosphere radworld, (I-III) Darlu, an exotic atmosphere radworld: (I-IIIa) Emderim is its only moon and is designated the mainworld, (II) an exotic atmosphere bigworld, (III) a dense rocky planetoid belt, (IV-I) a small gas giant, (IV-II) a ringed large gas giant, (V) a large gas giant, (VI) a ringed small ice giant form the outer system. Many of the worlds retain satellites.

(I-III) Darlu

(I-III) Darlu (UWP Y6A0000-0) is categorised as a radworld. It orbits Chenku at a mean distance of 0.33 AU (49.4 million km), within the outer system. It has an orbital period of 110 days 7 hours: it is tidally locked to Chenku. The axial tilt is 2 degrees. Darlu has a diameter of 9,984 km, a density of 5.88 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.83 G. The world is geologically active. Its atmosphere is rated as Exotic, with a mean surface pressure of 0.88 bar and a composition of 93% carbon dioxide (CO2), 4% nitrogen (N2), 1% abiotic oxygen (O2), 1% argon (Ar), and 1% carbon monoxide (CO), water vapor (H2O), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The world has relatively high levels of background radiation: emission rates exceed 45 rads per hour. The world has no hydrosphere. Mean surface temperature: -62°C. The atmosphere is dynamic strong weather systems driven by the star sweep surge across the globe. The climate is static.

World starport

Emderim has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few 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 a downport.

World technology level

Emderim 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

Emderim has no central government or substantial government apparatus; an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.
