Shiss-Taa

Homeworld of the Shiss, Third planet in the Binary star system Zazz nz Uzzz

Shiss Taa is a GWC 3A planet with diverse climate and environment zones. The largest of the three continents is dominated by a huge and dry desert. Called the Naws-Sat desert. According to Shiss lore, it was here where the first Shiss crawled upon the White Rock and in doing so left a white streak on that Shiss, thus becoming the first White Throat.

This Shiss became the first of all First Nestlings, the semi mystical Zazuhr. He united the desert Shiss and then conquered the rest of the planet bringing it under the control of the "White Throats". Also developing the complicated and strict Color caste system of the Shiss Society.

The Naws-Sat desert is long gone and covered by the Mega City of a star spanning society, the City of Naw.

There are several space ports (in size comparable to Union Class A ports )

Center of the city is the Palace of the White Dune, the very center of the Shiss society and center of its power. It is here where the First Nestling resides and where the Shiss government is located.

The Room of the sacred White Rock in its center displays the white rock that is the most sacred object of the Shiss.

The City is somewhat strange to Union visitors, as it has no advertisment anywhere, there are no open visible shops or restaurants. There is very little air or surface traffic.

Restaurants and shops are strictly separated by Castes and hidden behind plain facades.

Shopping or eating out is for low castes. The High casts have everything they want delivered.

Low casts are not allowed to be above the High casts, therefore fliers are restricted to High Caste members.

The Low Cast members must travel in tunnels below the surface.

Foreign visitors are not exactly welcome. Dignitaties of foreign societies are accepted but seen as a neccesary evil. It is not entirely uncommon for foreigners to be mugged, beaten or evern killed. It is then always done by rouge elements, the government issues a strong statements and promisses justice.

It also denies to have any control over rouge elements.

There is no foreign trade reaching Shiss-Taa directly.
