Kedakek is a poor, nonindustrial world.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• This world has few prospects for economic development.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Zachrisson Subsector of Fulani Sector.

• It is a mainworld which is a satellite of either a gas giant or another world.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• This is a hot world, with a climate of high temperatures.
