Peblfliens is a moderate population world with over a hundred million, but not yet a billion sophonts in population size.
- It is a member of the Izrats Kriezhlas Unity in the Bilahew Subsector of Fulani Sector.
- It is a chilly tundra world, with a climate of low temperatures.
- This world has an exploration base, which is similar to an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling explorer personnel and exploratory starships.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)
The system has a single primary star.
- The worlds that make up the system follow near-Bodean orbits around it.
Peblfliens has a solitary primary star. Peblfliens

System Data
The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:
- The mainworld.
- x7 secondary rocky worlds.
- x2 planetoid belts.
- x2 gas giants.
Mainworld Data
The mainworld orbits just beyond the habitable zone, within the stars outer system.
- The world orbits inside of the stars jump shadow, requiring long manoeuver times to or from a safe jump distance.
Mainworld Size (S)
Peblfliens is a Big World between 15,200km and 16,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 1.1G and 1.5G. The horizon will appear about 5.7km away. Vessels with only 1G of thrust should avoid landing on this world.
Mainworld Atmosphere (A)
Peblfliens has a pressure of 2.5 or greater atmospheres. A Dense & High Pressure Atmosphere typically requires no survival gear under many conditions. Pressure at or below sea level is too great to support life but the atmosphere may be breathable at higher altitudes. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.
- Temperatures at sea levels are far above normal for outer system worlds.
- They are significantly increased by greenhouse gases, geological activity, and by the high atmospheric pressure.
- Temperatures fall rapidly with altitude.
Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)
Peblfliens has 45-55% of its surface covered by liquid water. Wilderness refueling is possible.
- The oceans are warmed by geological activity.
Satellites:
Peblfliens retains three close trace atmosphere moons.
- The three worlds orbit every few weeks.
- Their tidal pulls cause seismic activity on the mainworld.
Mainworld Geography and Topography

Native Lifeforms
Extensive native life. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

World Starport (St)
Peblfliens has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. 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 (T)
Peblfliens possesses a Technology Level of TL–7.
- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Early video and early satellite communication networks.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fuel cells, solar energy, and geothermal power sources.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Improved automobiles, hovercraft, and bullet trains.
- Water: Hydrofoils and early triphibians.
- Air: Hang gliders and supersonic jets.
- Space: Deep space probes and interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
World Government (G)
Peblfliens is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy, and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.
World Military
Approximately 1.5 million personnel.
World Law (L)
Peblfliens has an extreme law level which covers every area of interaction. Laws are complex, detailed, and difficult to understand. Every interaction with the government requires an Advocate. Law enforcement is omnipresent and strict. Legal proceeding can take months to years to resolve and may involve dozens of people. A few worlds with this law level may be a Red Zone and others will be an Amber Zone. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (with no exception for private residences; visiting starships are only protected so long as they stay within designated starports and approach corridors). Civilian movement is rigidly controlled. Travel documents are frequently checked, and destinations must often be declared when traveling substantial distances across the world.
