Zowie is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • In a technological universe, societies without industrial capability generally suffer as nearly all manufactured and high tech goods must be brought in at significant cost.
  • 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.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Arar Subsector of Massilia Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
  • The world has a Data Repository or a centralized collection of information and data.
  • During the Long Night this world was named Lirla.

Kiur (Lishun 0125) is a large, very dense world, rich in heavy metals with a dense hydrocarbon atmosphere, making Kiur almost a sub-gas-giant in a system entirely composed of gas giants.

  • Its 71 million inhabitants live in orbit to escape the atmosphere of methane and ammonia.
  • The atmosphere can be easily skimmed and purified for fusion fuel, but what really sweetens the dismal aspect of this world is the ocean of pure hydrocarbons.
  • These are scooped and sold to lower tech planets that still burn them for fuel.
  • A good example is Surli (Lishun 0529), 5 parsecs away.

During the First Imperium and Second Imperium this world served as a branch for Argushiigi Admegulasha Bilanidin, the Vilani library.
