0206 Rhadamanthus E 9A6867-3 Fluid Hydrographics, Gas Giant
Starport Type E - Frontier installation. Essentially a bare spot of bedrock with no fuel, facilities, or bases present. The starport primarily serves to supply scouts from neighboring Wayaway with food they can not easily produce themselves. A small amount of trade occurs with Brodyr which controls Rhadamanthus.
Planetary Size 9 - Approximately 9,000 miles in diameter.
Atmosphere Type A - Exotic. The atmosphere has very little free oxygen and has various other exotic compounds. The native population is able to survive in this atmosphere for a week or so with primitive equipment while standard humans will need supplemental oxygen to survive. The high protected valleys have a somewhat more reasonable atmosphere. Even in these valleys, the atmosphere is still quite unusual, but at least the plant-life produces sufficient oxygen and cleans the worst of the unusual compounds out of the air (though the air nominally is not poisonous, very long exposures however will have a detrimental affect even on the natives).
Hydrographic Percentage 6 - 60% of the world's surface is covered in oceans of very nasty water. High in the mountains, in isolated valleys, some large lakes are part of the more reasonable environment. All but one of the nine major continents are well connected and most trade is by land with a very few brave souls utilizing sailing craft.
Population Size 8 - 700,000,000 inhabitants. In the best valleys, cities ranging from several hundred thousand to a million inhabitants have developed, with perhaps 2-3 times that population outside the city. Each valley is ruled by a small cadre of people from Brodyr (TL B).
Government Type 6 - Captive Government. Ruling functions are performed by an imposed leadership answerable to an outside group.
Law Level 7 - Shotguns are prohibited. bla bla bla ...
Technological Index 3 - One of the lowest technological levels in the sub-sector, The native population of this hell hole has managed to develop weapons similar in accuracy and reliability to the flintlocks of Earth's history. In fact, the population and technology level are quite compatible with 1700s Earth. Traders utilize a native oxygen producing symbiont to enhance their ability to breathe outside the valleys.
The challenges of the environment and communication made it easy for the high-tech Brodyrians to subjugate the population.
