Station Name: Hara Station Environment: Tight and junky mechanical halls, deteriorating spaces that were once flourishing. Rusty server rooms. Resources: Spaceship remains. Population Size: ~2,600 Culture: . . Two thousand and six hundred people have been labeled as residents of Hara Station. Most of them don’t get along. It is a disjointed melting pot of different cultural beliefs and stationary duties tied together mostly by the ultimate need to survive and their innate distrust of the outsider. You do not want to be known as a foreigner to Hara station, as it comes with immense scrutiny and distrust. . . Some have labeled the people here as racist or bigoted, and while to a minor part this is true, more broadly the station is self-interested and pragmatic. They look to the outsider and ask “What can you do for us?” and it is left to you to answer, or leave. . . All long term residents of this spacial salvage colony fulfill an important cultural or logistical role, and self-organize into loose ‘unions’, headed by ‘representatives’ and ‘negotiators.’ Their political system elects a ‘president’ every four months, who has ultimate choice in matters of the colony for the four months following. Presidents are known to be assassinated, lynched, or banished if they become too unpopular during their term. Backstory Permissions: Semi-Closed Out of Character Intentions: . . Hara Station’s codex has been made intentionally sparse. This is because the intended experience of a player is to get immersed in a dense foreign culture, which they can rise to prominence in through action and understanding. . . Additionally, Hara Station is intended to stay on a very small power scale. Being a prominent person in its walls, even being its president, is nowhere near the same level of prestige as being an elected senator of Haven or an Atlesian department head.
