Pani Paola

  • Breathable Atmosphere
  • Hostile Biosphere
  • Tens of Millions of Inhabitants
  • TL3
  The Pani Paola system has several planets orbiting a system of binary stars at the center of this stellar region.   A barren planet occupies the furthest orbit from the suns. A gas giant, and then an inhabited world occupy the closer orbits. The inhabited planet has a moon that looks to be hosting some kind of colony. A burning world too hot to host any kind of life occupies the closest orbit.   A small fleet of system ships with a system cruiser as their flagship patrols the system.   The world has organized itself into a Post-Scream world government, who rule the planet from a secure citadel high in the tallest mountains of the planet.   Wildlife on the planet is known to be especially hostile, considering humans far beneath them on the food chain.  

Important Sites

 

Foothold

The city of Foothold was the site of the planet's first continual habitation, settled during the Second Wave of Human Exploration. Despite it being the first settled place on Pani Paola, the seat of power changed to the Worldgov Citadel shortly after The Scream. Foothold remains a large but drab mining town where the air is choked by coalfired machinery, hammers and picks ring out through the night and day, and the mineral wealth of the planet is carried off to the other settlements that need it by small trucks on simple roads. The miners here long for better conditions and have been some of the harshest critics of the world government, going as far as to organize several strikes and protests. These protests become more violent with each passing iteration.  

Tor

Tor is a large city on the eastern coast surrounded by tall forests of timber bearing trees and a large mountain poor in ores, but rich in decroative stone. Smoke billows from industrial smokestacks all over the city as ore from Foothold is made into manufactured goods for the other settlements across the planet. A water-bound port with cargo barges and a large tarmac for cargo flights are located on the west and southern side of the city respectively. The city is covered in a mixture of coal dust and lime wash, and a legion of cleaners is employed in keeping the city from being buried under a second skin of pollutants.
