Mainworld Data[edit]

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Nitengixag is a Small World between 4,000km and 5,600km in diameter. The world has low gravity between 0.24G and 0.34G. The horizon will appear about 3km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Nitengixag has a pressure of 0.43 to 0.70 atmospheres. The Thin Atmosphere does not require survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)[edit]

Nitengixag has 45-55% of its surface covered by liquid water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Nitengixag is a link on the J-4 Gn'hk'r Jump Bridge.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Nitengixag has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the 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 only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Population (P)[edit]

Nitengixag has a population of 60,000,000 sophonts (tens of millions).

  • The population is mostly K'kree with some client races in servitor roles.

Linguistic Topography[edit]

The following languages are most commonly heard here:

World Government (G)[edit]

Nitengixag is governed by a Non-charismatic Dictatorship. This is a continuation of the charismatic dictatorship, where the original leadership has died or retired and been replaced by allies or protégés. The justifications for the original change in government remain as well as the assertion of rights to rule.

  • The local steppelord has let his world's important position on the jump bridge route go to his head a little, leading to this government rating.

World Law Level[edit]

K'kree worlds do not use a fixed Law Level scale, other than to forbid weaponry to anyone of any race who is not of the K'kree Warrior/Bodyguard caste or an active member in the military of the Two Thousand Worlds (which makes them a Warrior caste temporarily).

  • By Imperial standards, this world is Law Level A.
  • Generally, K'kree justice is merciful to other K'kree. Misunderstandings and the rare criminal matters are judged by the Krurruna (herd "boss") or their representatives. Their decisions are final, and obedience is near-absolute. Towards non-K'kree, the authorities are far less charitable, as K'kree are highly chauvinistic and mistrustful of aliens.

World Technology Level (TL)[edit]

Nitengixag possesses a Technology Level of TL–11 or TL-B in Hexadecimal Notation.
