Drogs

Drogs

Drogs is a multi culture occupied marginal garden world in the outmost reaches of Freespace.

This sweltering Jungle planet with more mud and bogs than Quagmire, the highest possible air humidity. Temperatures hovering at around 80 degrees.

It had been a pirate and criminals base and hide our for many decades but was always a distant second to SIN 4. With the demise of SIN 4 (Becoming a Union World) Drogs virtually exploded in activity. Unlike Sin 4 it does have very little in existing infrastructure. The only large settlement was Drogs, a wild place of tents, shacks, temporary buildings, containers, log homes and simple brick and mortar structures. Drogs is established on a large island that has been cleared form most of the vegetation and usually is drowning in knee deep sticky mud.

There is a muddy landing field that could service a few smaller space ships with fuel. Due to the sudden increase of traffic, larger ships land in the shallow water around the island. Several ad hoc refineries have opened and sell fuel (competing and fighting each other)

There are two local syndicates and the surviving syndicates of SIN 4 fighting for control of this world. Brutal killings, explosions and fights happen daily.

The Jooltar, who are the closest spacefaring civilisation, maintain an enclave and are the strongest faction. There is a weekly slave market and a busy trade market in space ship parts, weapons and looted goods.

Drogs has no native sentient population but plenty of nasty swamp and jungle beasts and a local fungus that causes lung infections in NiOX breathers.
