Randal in the Vulsara Galaxy

The Planet Randal is in the outer Perseus Arm of the Alpha Quadrant of the Vulsara Galaxy

Description

• System Population:780 Million. Approx.
• 12 orbital bodies in its solar system. 87 Artificial-spaced based habitations. 18 moons. three asteroid belts representing unformed planets.

Randal One

• • 770 Million on Randal (Randal One).
  • A medium sized M class planet circling a small G type yellow star. .
  • Habitable within human tolerable range.
  • Dynamic mountain ranges. One large land mass, many archipelagos with large islands.
  • 3 moons. Cira, Bene, and Filch. Small local atmospheres and constant .4 Gravity. Habitable in artificial domes.
    • All three moons have been used as construction facilitates in the past. The maintenance of artificial habitations requires constant maintenance which is a constant topic in system politics.
    • Cira: Pop. 600k. Cina Corp manages vast hydroponic farms covering much of the surface of the moon. They specialize in processing food for space travel on ships without replicators. Emergency rations, energy bars,
    • Bene: Pop. 59k
    • Filch: Pop 3K. Filtch maintains a small population of craft industries and residents with long history on the moon. Filch suffered a dramatic asteroid contact near the End of the Randal Corp ownership of the System and never regains full functionality. System government maintains a small habitable presence but does not recommend immigration for new residents.
    • Gretileon Station: Massive artificial structure for repair of Star ships by an automatic system. Established by the Gretilion Corp, the structure is responsible for the renaissance and transformation of Randal from a damaged system after the micro-singularity passed through it.

Randal Three

Known Locally as Polgasa

Tentar Associates

Denton "Tenten" Tentar was a managing director when the Randal Corp abandoned the facilities. One of the few Randal executives who remained on planet when the company abandoned its ties to it. With the remaining personnel he managed to refocus remaining facilities in the Landas region into the production of land vehicles and space shuttles.

New Randal Industries

NewRanCorp manages small scale personal Replicator services.

Gretilion Industries

Delwin Gretilion brought a large space based repair station of unknown origin and parked it outside the orbit of this world. Soon ships from all over the quadrant were coming for ship repairs and visiting the planet during the time required.

Neural Processing Units

Individuals serve as Neural Processors and receive substantial funds. They are linked into a complex computer system using their brains ans high speed processing units. They are intravenously fed and hydrated and physically maintained.

Randals entry in the “Hitchhiker's Guide to The Federation Galaxy"

• Randal: Reasonably small M type Planet around a boring G Type Star.
• Recommendations: Currently a recreation and Shore Leave planet outside the fashionable circles of the Galaxy. Popular with race enthusiasts, gamblers, layabouts and those on the lamb.

“The planet was called Randal, though originally it was a Ferengi world, and had been sold during the early years of Ferengi/ Federation contact to the old Randal Corporation which intended to transfer all its holdings and manufacturing to a world outside the Federation's legal control. It had worked well enough that the Randal Corp had moved a million people and a material for constructing orbital ships and low orbital private crafts and a wide range of land vehicles.”

"In 2509 A Singularity passing in the region of spae near Randl lightly tapped its atmosphere, removing all but 5% and greatly ravagin the northern edge of the main continent."

"The Federation stepped in and restored the atmospher of the world but the bills were staggering. Afterwards the fines and fees were enough that the Corporation all but walked away from the world. They declared it an independent planet, established a puppet government, transferred all the debts to its treasury and abandoned it to its own fortunes. The grateful settlers, misunderstanding the situation, kept the planet's name out of gratitude.”

“The government, mostly comprised of lawyers, middle managers, layabouts, and sportsman, billed the world as a vacation spot with rugged adventure locations, extensive athletic and sports facilities. They built dirt tracks to race anything they could find and soon it became a squalid world of gamblers, layabouts, race enthusiasts and people dropped off here when their passage money on civilian passenger ships ran out. The world became popular with the kind of people with no place to go and not enough money to go anyplace else anyway”

"In 2521 Delwin Gretilion , a space pirate of the Resarian Realm, brought a “Starship Repair Station of unknown origin” to Randal and parked it in orbit. He hired people to spend a month as some kind of ah.. no idea what this means ..-Neural Processing Unit- He paid them enough to live on planet for a year it seems. Soon ships from all over the quadrant were being brought here and repaired, upgraded, and otherwise empowered. In time he set up connected repair stations on the planet and began repairing everything, and the government paid for it all.”

“Soon this Gretilion repaired several replicator plants. Refuse was collected, used by the units to build things, and power the replicator plants. The Neural Processing Units business was booming and only a week a year was needed from each volunteer but the payout remained the same. Refuse was traded for replicator charges and in a decade the place was cleaned up. Apparently there were also some rather bloody purges and duels.. The details are murky. However the race tracks had stadiums built around them, a few hotel chains refurbished slums, and the planet began attracting a less desperate clientèle. In a decade the place was back on the star routes and had become a legitimate vacation destination for weary star faring peoples.”

"Attractions include Hunting medium and big mammals and extensive fishing opportunists. It is on the list of all race specialties and hosts many interplanetary leagues."

"Various balance formats of motorcycles and zipp speeder racing is extremely popular. Figure 5 Course racing may have originated on Randal and remains its most popular race sport.'

"Warrior Core and Lord Gladiators Association participates on Randal and generally use the 10 Called Rule format.'

"Its rugged northern continent, the largest land mass on the planet, Is filled with adventurous mountain ranges from 3000' to 19,000'. Gretillion Vale is at 18,000' and has access to Mountain climbing peaks as high as 22,000' and guided Environmental Suit tours to the top of Mount Ranadl Corp at 31,000' feet. "
