==Home World== | |||
* '''Proper Name''': Devron | |||
* '''Diameter''': 18,438 km (11,457 miles) | |||
* '''Gravity''': 0.92 standard gravity with a density of 3.5 | |||

*with a year of 332 days, each day 37.6 hours long | |||
*primary terrain features are sand and rock | |||
===Resources=== | |||
Devron has an over abundance of industrial metals, (Both light and heavy) which was the original reason for the [[Caraadian]]s to establish a colony on this planet. As for other types of resources there are some crystals (Dilithium included but not a major resource) and gems with the quality ranging from sub-standard to excellent, no rare metals, and there does not seem to be any radioactives. | |||
===History=== | |||
Several noble and Merchant houses call the planet home along with a large settlement of commoners who dwell around the planet's busy space port. A space tether connects the ground spaceport to a busy orbital starport for shipping vessels unable to land. | Several noble and Merchant houses call the planet home along with a large settlement of commoners who dwell around the planet's busy space port.
