History & Background (Dossier)

This industrial world is one of the oldest civilisations in the Core Sector. It pledged to help revitalise the wider Chant Subsector, which is in economic decline.

World Starport

Skeen 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.
