System data
The primary is Konstanz, an orange giant star. It has a luminosity of 350 Sols, a mass of 5.26 Sols and a diameter of 64.3 million km – the corona extends to 0.21 AU, beyond orbital position (I). The inner system consists of (IV, V and VII) three inner rocky vacuum worlds, and (VIII) a sparse stony planetoid belt – orbital positions (II), (III) and (VI) are empty. (IX) Nerent, a large exotic atmosphere world orbits in the habitable zone: (IXa) Risa is its satellite and is designated the mainworld. (X) a large icy thin atmosphere world forms the outer system. Risa is the only major satellite in the system.
(IX) Nerent-Risa
(IX) Nerent
(IX) Nerent is the major component of the Nerent-Risa system and has a UWP of Y7B0000-0. It orbits primary at a mean distance of 19.2 AU (2.872 billion km), it has an orbital period of XXX years XX days and a rotation period of XXX hours. The axial tilt is 7 degrees. Nerent has a diameter of 11,434 km, a density of 4.88 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.79 G. Its atmosphere is rated as Corrosive, with a mean surface pressure of 75 bar and a composition of 95% carbon dioxide, 4%, nitrogen, and 1% sulfur dioxide, argon, carbon monoxide and other trace gases. The world has no hydrographics. Mean surface temperature: 440°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and powerful weather systems, driven by the star, sweep across the globe. The climate is chaotic and weather patterns do not follow regular cycles.
(IXa) Risa
(IXa) Risa is the only major satellite of Nerent and is designated the mainworld. It orbits Nerent at a mean distance of 25 Diameters (XXX,XXX km), it has an orbital period of 14 days 5 hours and has a rotation period of 14 days 5 hours – it is tidally locked to its parent world. The axial tilt is 7.5 degrees. Risa has a diameter of 5,004 km, a density of 5.88 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 0.42 G. Its atmosphere is rated as Thin, with a mean surface pressure of 0.43 bar and a composition of 81% nitrogen, 18% oxygen, and 1% argon, carbon dioxide, neon and other trace gases. Approximately 2% of the surface is covered in lakes of liquid water. Mean surface temperature: 34°C. The atmosphere is dynamic and powerful weather systems, driven by the star, roll across the globe. The climate is seasonal and weather patterns follow regular cycles during the local year.

World starport
Risa has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few 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 a downport.
World technology level
Risa 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
Risa is governed by a Corporate Polity with a single corporation with a typical corporate structure as a government. A company town, or world. The typical corporate run world usually has a single purpose. Examples include mining, agriculture, or other kinds of resource extraction. But rather than a simple base of operations, there are facilities for housing workers and their families including hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure. How, or if, the children of the workers are incorporated into the workforce varies with companies. The corporation running the world may be a subsidiary of a larger interstellar corporation.
