Velo is an agricultural world with the potential to become an industrial power.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import many manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This world is a "Twilight Zone World", a planet that is tidally-locked to its star. It has a hot side that permanently faces the star, a cold side that permanently faces away, and a narrow twilight zone in-between.
• It is a subject world of the Korsumug Empire located in the Mainsend Subsector of Mavuzog Sector.

• This world-system hosts a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.
• 70% of the population is composed of baseline humans.
• 30% of the population is composed of Jaibok.
