Planets of Interest
for Tarazet the Role-playing Game
High Corolant
High Corolant is a game planet just outside the Breach. An area in the sphere of influence of the planets of the Old Kingdom, an area of space in the Tarazet science fiction role-playing game.
High Corolant is a desert planet and the only vegetative life is a unique string-like plant which is found on only this planet in the game.
There are no fixed geographical political units on the planet.
The planet instead has nomad mining tribes who mine a commodity, which is very valuable in the game, known as “Cane”. Cane is an ingredient in many legal products such as perfume, but it can also be made into a drug.
The plants of the High Corolant deserts resemble giant bean stalks or sugar canes at the surface and these cane like structures extend very, very deep under ground. The plants become richer and richer in Cane the deeper underground they go.
The deepest mines produce the highest quality cane.
The mines are city-sized cylindrical structures with huge mining machines mounted in the nose. Often a tribe is a mixture of something like 10% humans (from all ethnicities), 5% other game races such as Tigron and 85% robots. The tribes are rich despite their simple lives and they invest heavily in their robots which are bejeweled shiny chrome humanoid things which wear fine clothes and are fiendishly intelligent.
Adventure Idea for this setting.
The player characters buy a cargo on the local space station the Tower and come down to the planet to collect.
