System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

Mainworld Data

Gilet is a satellite of a gas giant.
500 px.

Mainworld Size (S)

Gilet is a Small World between 2,400km and 4,000km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.1G and 0.17G. The horizon will appear about 2.5km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Gilet has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask. This atmosphere also contains an unusual taint such as disease, a hazardous gas mix, pollutants, or sulfur compounds, which requires the use of a Filter Respirator Combination Mask. Some taints may require more protective equipment. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

  • The world has an abiotic oxygen atmosphere.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Gilet has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.

Satellites:

None.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No information yet available.

Native Lifeforms

No native life: the world has an abiotic oxygen atmosphere.

History & Background (Dossier)

Gilet is a former colony of the Wuaye.

  • It has been abandoned for more than a thousand years.
  • Only a few ruins of the former settlements remain.

World Starport (St)

Gilet does not have a starport. The Class X Starport is an indication that no starport exists in the system. There are no facilities or services available, and no site marked for landing.

Facilities

None.

World Technology Level (T)

Gilet has a die back Tech Level of TL–2.

  • The world has no functioning technological base.

Salvage

  • Remains on this world include worked raw materials, and metals and alloys.
    • These may be salvaged.

World Government (G)

Gilet 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.

World Military

None.

World Law (L)

Gilet has no law in practice. It is an Anarchy. On many worlds, this by itself justifies an Amber Zone advisory. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.

World Economy

  • Resources: 7 (few)
  • Labor: 0 (unpopulated)
  • Infrastructure: 0 (non-existent)
  • Efficiency: -5 (extremely poor)

Trade Data

  • Importance: -3 (very unimportant)

World Demographics (P)

Gilet is unpopulated.

  • Rumors persist that a population of Wuaye got left behind when the world was abandoned around the Year 0. If this is indeed the case, these unfortunates would likely have quickly starved or dehydrated in the world's harsh, unforgiving environment.

Urbanization

A few derelict urban centers are surrounded by abandoned satellite communities.

  • The ruins are concentrated into a single region.

World Culture

  • Homogeneity: 0 (none)
  • Acceptance: 0 (none)
  • Strangeness: 0 (none)
  • Symbols: 0 (none)
