- The planet Filve has become a huge service station for passing starships. An Imperial class starport services virtually any vessel (though smaller ships tend to be put off by Filve starport's inflated docking fees). The Filvians, noted for their mechanical aptitude, have turned a hot, uncomfortable planet into a major trade and information nexus.
A large number of ships pass through the Dulfilvian system, mostly restocking at Filve. A number of the galaxy's wealthiest corporations, such as Sienar and BlasTech, have opened branch offices on Filve. Filvian computers and computer operators are highly sought after by many corporations, due to the large amount of computerized recordkeeping that is part of the daily operation of such an organization.
The planet itself is hot, dry and uncomfortable. The climate is almost monotonous: constant sunshine, ovenhot winds and a complete lack of vegetation make Filve an inhospitable desert planet.
The Filvians have created gigantic, self-contained cities to house themselves and the off-worlders that live on the planet. These cities are completely climate controlled and are protected from the uncomfortable outside environment. These huge mega-cities are interlocked, and it is possible to visit each city without ever walking outdoors.
