Markosian City


Markosian City is the Capital of Tarthos, and hold the major starport for anything and everything coming in and out of Tarthos.

Overview

Markosian City is the Seat of Power in Tarthos, with a population of nearly 250,000. Located almost perfectly on the equator, it experiences almost even dark and light periods, and for a few weeks each year the weather can almost be described as tropical. The gubernatorial mansion is in Markosian City, and it is also home to all government services on Tarthos. It here here that the appointed Governor of the Dlarit Corporation executes his command and control of all operations and residents on Tarthos. A garrison of 18,000 troops is always on Temporary Duty Assignment to Markosian City from Kar Alabrek. They are at the direct command of the Mayor of Markosian City, who is appointed by the Governor.

Though small in population on a planetary scale, the city itself is quite expansive, with a land area able of accommodating a populace 9 times its current size. A planned city, Markosian City has five zones, each accessible only through a checkpoint, with military troops stationed at each checkpoint to prevent unauthorized entry and exit. The zones are determined by the distinct functions they serve, with each segmented by a shield controlled by the generator within that zone.

Five planetary shield generators are installed in Markosian City, providing both protection from attack and planetary weather control. Because the atmosphere within the city is maintained as a different concentration of gases (more oxygen, less nitrogen) than the rest of the planet, a bubble appears to dome the city. Central control for the shield generators is housed within the Black Zone, and restricted to high-level government officials and military personnel.

Zones
