Soon I'll be starting a larger Mothership campaign, and I want to provide the background for the story, even if I incorporate shorter scenarios. I've started creating the locations and factions for world-building, and I'll share the better ones here.
The first one is a remote planet, intended as a rim-world where players can trade or lick their wounds. The planet is called Hortius-3, a terraformable but lifeless rocky planet located far from the busy trade routes. Its atmosphere is thin and unbreathable, and terraforming began only 20-25 years ago. The population is around 10,000, divided among a military base, a prison camp, several research outposts, an independent colony, and mining facilities. There is no agriculture, so food must be imported from off-world. Additionally, there is a space station functioning as an orbital garden. Due to their dependence, tensions exist between surface dwellers and the station.
On the surface, there is water, but it doesn't form oceans, so the temperature undergoes quite extreme changes, and the atmosphere is dominated by strong winds, shaping the planet's cloud cover consisting of long tendrils...
