Jump map from Travellermap.com

Obrella is a nonindustrial vacuum world, which warrants hazardous environment precautions.

• Life in a vacuum requires great discipline. After all, it only takes one forgotten seal on a vacuum suit to spell death. Those who survive tend to be very methodically-minded and attentive to small detail.
• 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 Tomon Trade Federation in the Clatt Subsector of Matzen Sector.

• This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions make it dangerous to visitors.
• This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or over technology standards for Charted Space.
• This world-system hosts a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x9 secondary rocky worlds.
• x3 gas giants.

Mainworld Data

No information yet available.

Mainworld Size (S)

Obrella is a Small World between 900km and 2,400km in diameter. The world has very low gravity between 0.05G and 0.09G. The horizon will appear about 2km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Obrella has a pressure of less than 0.001 atmospheres which requires the use of a Vacc Suit. TL–8 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Obrella has no free-standing water or ice on the surface. Wilderness refueling isn't possible on this world. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are classified Desert World or a Hell World depending on their atmosphere.

World Starport (St)

Obrella has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

• No information yet available.

World Technology Level (T)

Obrella possesses a Technology Level of TL–16 or TL-G in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Personal holovideo and personal meson communicators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Miniature super-batteries, collectors, and advanced Fusion+.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land, Water & Air: Advanced gravcraft.
  • Space: G-Carriers & advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-7 and prototype Hop Drive-1.

World Government (G)

Obrella has no central government for the world, an Anarchy. The largest governmental structure would be a family, tribe, or single clan. The largest group will be between 50 and 100 individuals, and there may be dozens to hundreds of them. This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.

World Military

Despite heavy automation and advanced robotics the small population does not support massive shipyards for naval vessels. The system is dotted if deep weapon sites. Advanced meson weapons provide {TL|16} levels of overlapping fire to annihilate invader forces.

World Law (L)

Obrella has no law in practice. It is an Anarchy. On many worlds, this by itself justifies an Amber Zone advisory. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.
