Coos is a nonindustrial fluid world.

  • A fluid world has an oceanic geography of a liquid other than water such as ammonia, methane, hydrocarbons, or other exotic liquids.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • This world is a member of the Duchy of Trelyn (or Trelyn Domain) located in the Coos Subsector of Vanguard Reaches Sector.


This world has a nearby naval base, capable of handling warships.
