Ubar!

Ubar is a dusty, dirty little rock with no oceans and an atmosphere too thin to breathe. It’s a poor world; miners and ranchers live a fitful existence out in the dry hinterlands. Ubar’s only saving grace is the Pit, a 977km-wide asteroid impact basin, an 11km deep hole punched into the planet’s surface. Down at the bottom of that crater is air thick enough to breathe comfortably. Most of the population live inside the crater.

It’s the outcasts and the impoverished who must weather the nasty extremes of the hinterlands up on the high grounds. That’s where most of the real adventures are to be found!

Planetary Tool Kits are a collection of tools that you can use to build adventures, they aren’t just world write-ups but tool kits! Each includes:

  • Array of useful and imagination-catching world locations
  • Typical NPC encounters
  • Several animals with stats
  • A vehicle unique to the world
  • Character ‘personalities’
  • Encounter table
  • List of adventure seeds tailored to the world in question
