顺便发下所有物品的一点介绍(按字母顺序排列) :
Argnu beef
Argnu originally roamed wild over the lower foothills of the Argon mountain ranges. Argnu
meat, when processed for off planet export is sold in half-tonne pressed blocks known as
Cahoona Meatsteaks.
Artefacts
Relics of ancient civilisations can be found all over the universe. These artefacts vary in size
and shape but most were built with sophisticated advanced technology. The origins of these
artefacts are still unclear and Argon and Boron archaeologists are working to decipher their
purpose.
Artificial Fertilizer
In recent Jazuras the Argon Agriculture Council has decided that it is unsafe to use Fertilizer
from the Argnu Cattle. This artificial fertiliser created by the AAC contains all the essential
elements that plants need for growth but eliminates the ones that are harmful to other life
forms.
Biological Micro Organisms
These micro-organisms are used by the Boron to create new and advanced pharmaceuticals.
Using their advanced genetic techniques, the Boron have discovered many cures to
previously incurable diseases. The Boron Medical Council now controls the regulation of
these micro-organisms in most sectors. The Boron actively search out new species and have
discovered varieties that are used to manufacture fertilizer and to treat radioactive waste.
BoFu
BoFu meals are known to be very nutritious and healthy. The Boron love them and it is said
that their pilots can live on just a nugget of BoFu for almost a Wozura. BoFu is grown in
special BoFu Chemical Labs from Plankton and other secret ingredients. Even though the
Boron are famous for their delicious Stott spices among other races, the taste of BoFu is no
joy to anybody but them.
BoGas
BoGas. The unusual natural resources found within the planet Boron mean that the planet is
really a huge chemical factory. From these many chemicals the Boron manufactures a unique
gas that is used throughout the universe as the ultimate painkiller and anaesthetic. After the
Boron government stopped any commercial use of the natural resources of its planet Boron
gas is now artificially reproduced in Bio Gas Factories throughout the Boron Kingdom.
Cartography Chips
Designed and produced by the military, these cartography chips contain important information
on individual sectors or the universe as a whole. They detail the positions of all known military
facilities and stellar phenomena.
Chelts Meat
Chelts are natural sea bound animals that once roamed the seas and oceans on the Split
home planet that the Split killed for meat, oil and their skins, which they processed to create
tough leather, like material. However for many Jazuras Chelts were over hunted and almost
brought to extinction. Nowadays Chelts are grown in space Chelt Aquariums and are later
sold to Split food factories.
Cloth Rimes
Argon cloth is one of the most versatile items to be found throughout the X Universe. It is
traded in great bolts of cloth known as Rimes. Produced by merging the stems of Delexian
Wheat with various animal fat based oils, it provides the raw materials for hard wearing and
durable clothing, such as work suits and leisure clothing. The Argon also use this material for
all kinds of packaging. Argon Cloth is also further processed into explosive materials and
used in weapons manufacture.
Computer Components
Computer Components are important resources for the production of all modern technology.
From wristwatches to gigantic spaceships, computers control everything.
Construction Equipment
Modern construction equipment is designed to allow the construction of vast space stations
safely and quickly. It is vital for the economic growth of all races
Crystals
Crystals are important for the production of various weapons. They are produced in Crystal
Fabs from Silicon wafers.
Delexian Wheat
Delexian wheat is grown on the plains of Argon. Argon settlers have taken this plant wherever
they have colonised a planet, and nowadays even grow it on gigantic farms floating in space.
It is a yellowish green plant that stands four to five feet tall. The top of the plant produces
grain which, when threshed, produces a versatile flour like substance which forms the
substance for all Argon foodstuffs.
Energy Cells
Energy Cells are the unified energy storage used throughout the whole known universe. The
unification of the energy storage specifications allows for interstellar trading with this most
basic of all products.
Engine Components
Engine components are used in the manufacture and repair of spacecraft engines. The
plasma drive is the most common engine system used in modern spacecraft. It makes use of
a high-energy ionised plasma stream from a fusion core to propel the ship. These drives are
very stable and simple in construction and need little maintenance.
Entertainment Chips
Entertainment chips contain films, books or interactive entertainment. They are used all
throughout the known universe. Many Boron titles, however, have been banned in the Split
sectors.
Food Rations
Small packs of food usually used in combat or refugee conditions. These packs of food
contain freeze-dried Argnu beef, dried BoFu and water rations. Although not appetizing, these
foods can mean the difference between life and starvation.
Hand Weapons
There are many different designs of hand weapons to allow for the physical capabilities of
each race. They range from knives and swords to sophisticated military guns and rifles.
Hackerchips
A new and expensive computer chip created by some pirate factions. These Hacker chips are
designed as an adaptive hacking tool, automatically redirecting signals, creating viruses and
generally making a hacker's life easier. They are easily identifiable because they contain their
own power source - a small fusion battery that powers the chip for a Jazura. They cannot be
obtained through the usual sources and are used by some pirates to hack station reputations.
Luxury Foodstuffs
Many planets produce they own Luxury Foodstuffs that are coveted by connoisseurs all over
the universe. They are packed into refrigerated boxes and shipped quickly to their destination.
Because of the cost and short shelf life these foodstuffs are usually only used at important
functions.
Majaglit
Majaglit is made from the shell of the Maja snail and is a very precious material used by many
races for creating jewellery and ornamentation. Due to its precious nature it fetches high
prices. The few space jewelleries capable of processing Majaglit are famous for high quality
artworks.
Maja Snails
Maja snails are found in pools and rivers deep underground on the Paranid home planet.
Their shells are very shiny and, when subjected to certain light sources, produce a myriad of
different colours. In Space they are cultivated on Snail Ranches.
Massom powder
Massom is a powdered form of Scruffin. It is a basic yellow powder produced by the Split from
the Scruffin, a sweet potato-like food grown by the Split. Other races that use it to mix and
enhance their own foodstuff trade this powder. It is manufactured in Massom Mills found
everywhere in the Split territory and sold in large, one-tonne bulk containers.
Meatsteak Cahoonas
Argon Meatsteaks are traded throughout the universe. They provide a nutritious meat-based
food suitable for most types of races. Some races prefer to use Argon Meatsteaks in
conjunction with different Boron Spices. It is traded in blocks known as Cahoonas.
Medical Equipment
Medical equipment can be found all over the universe. This equipment can range from small
medicinal bottles to life support systems and portable operating theatres.
Microchips
Microchips are manufactured from silicon wafers that are especially treated with various
coatings to create the required conductivity. They are mainly used in the production process
of computer components.
Military Personnel
The military always have to move personnel around at short notice. For this purpose they
often employ freelance pilots. These passengers usually carry weapons and other goods and
their destinations might be dangerous
Mining Equipment
Mining Equipment, produced by the Galactic Mining Authority, is used to repair or replace
equipment on asteroid mines. The equipment ranges from the standard mining drill to
advanced laser equipment.
Narcotics
Narcotics are used widely within the pirate community. These drugs alter the person's
perceptions and brain functions. Unfortunately these effects cannot be controlled and the
narcotics can usually result in unwanted side effects and in some cases death.
Nividium
Nividium is a rare mineral that is found in some larger asteroid fields located in the universe.
Its use is limited, although it has been used as a superconductor. Nividium in its purest form is
traded as a unique and valuable commodity.
Nostrop Oil
Nostrop or Teladian sun oil is the main Teladi food product. It is mixed with various spices
and sold in different flavours. The Teladi produce and mix it in so-called Sun Oil Refineries
based on sunflowers.
Ore
Ore is the most common mineral throughout the whole known universe. It is used in the
production process of almost all technical goods. Ore is produced in Ore Mines which are
built on suitably mineral-rich asteroids.
Passengers
All races have access to commercial spacecraft; these ships can take large groups of
passengers to space stations or to other planets or systems.
Pirate Sidearms
Unlike the military issue hand weapons, these Pirate sidearms have been declared illegal by
most races. They are popular amongst Pirates as they are very effective at short range and
even minor wounds can be fatal. The favoured pirate sidearm is the rare IMB-42 Blaster
which literally rips the molecular structure of a living organism apart. Transporting and owning
these weapons is a capital offence in some sectors.
Plankton
Boron plankton is found as a scum like surface that floats on the surface of the chemical
swamps on Planet Boron. It is produced naturally from certain chemical reactions that are
found in the swamp mixing with the ammonia-based air. This scum is collected and then
treated with additives and other Boron minerals to produce a wide range of different, and
nutritious spices. Since the Boron seas are now completely protected from any industrial
usage, Plankton is mainly produced on huge Plankton Space Farms everywhere in the Boron
Kingdom.
Quantum Tubes
Quantum Tubes, also called Planck Tubes, are used inside the engines and controls of many
of the larger transporter ships and destroyers. The manufacture of Planck Tubes is both
costly and complex, making Quantum Tubes one of the most expensive trading goods.
Radioactive Waste
Radioactive waste is a by-product of weapon production, especially the Hornet Missile. Until
recently the only way to dispose of the waste was to dump it in disused silicon mines. The
Boron have discovered a micro-organism in the sector Light Water that digests the harmful
waste and excretes an inert material. How this useful radiation-resistant organism evolved is
unknown.
Rastar Oil
Rastar is oil produced from the animal fat of the Chelt, a farmed sea-bound animal on Split.
This oil, once refined, is very fine and is used by most races to lubricate engines and other
moving mechanical parts. It is refined in Rastar Refineries and sold in large barrels known as
Gretts.
Scruffin Fruits
Scruffin is a large type of edible vegetation similar to sweet potatoes. It is grown by Split
farmers in large open fields, as well as on gigantic space installations called Scruffin Farms. It
is a versatile foodstuff that, when processed, provides a number of Split food types. Even
though scruffin is traded inside and outside the Split territory it is mainly demanded by various
Split food factories..
Silicon Wafers
Silicon is the main mineral resource that all modern technology goods are based on. It is
usually found just below the surface of asteroids and mined in huge Silicon mines in space.
Slaves
Pilots who lost their freedom and are captured by pirates often end up being sold as slaves on
illegal markets.
Spaceflies
This creature is a small unintelligent spacefly that lives in the vast emptiness of deep space.
They are the size of a small bird and seem to be made out of delicate shining gossamer that
reacts to light and shimmers and shines in a multitude of colours. The Markus live in vast
complex hives in hollowed out parts of asteroids and perform a valuable function by collecting
space junk and other debris, which they capture and take back to their asteroids to be used in
the construction of their hives. They travel together in great swarms and communicate with a
series of musical notes, similar to bird song, that impossibly echo in space. Their beauty, and
the beauty of their music, is famed throughout the X Universe and all intelligent space races
delight in seeing them. Pilots will stop to watch a swarm fly past. Creatures working on the
outside of ships and space stations have claimed that the Markus will fly near them and even
perch on them, singing all the while. However, throughout space, sightings of The Markus
Space Fly are becoming very rare. This is mainly due to the actions of The Split, who capture
and use the small space fly to power their spaceships. Currently the Foundation Guild are
pressing for the Markus to be made a protected species and pressure is being put on the Split
to change their system of powering their spaceship engines. It is believed that, despite a
universal ban on their capture or trading, some pirates still hunt and capture this creature in
order to sell them to the Split.
Space Fuel
Members of the Argon race never trade Argon Whisky openly. It is known as Space Fuel and
is smuggled in containers known as Fuel Tanks as only few stations have a trading
concession. A cheap imitation of Argon whisky, called space fuel, is produced in whisky
producing plants, and smuggled into all other race sectors.
Spaceweed
Space weed can be smoked or ingested through the mouth. Because of its intoxicating effect,
and the fact that it is supposedly habit forming, the governments of all races, with the
exception of the Teladi, have outlawed this plant. It is suspected that the Teladi produce
Spaceweed in a factory they called the Bliss Place.
Soja Beans
Soja beans grow naturally inside large caves found throughout the Paranid home planet. As
they grow in the dark they are white in colour and retain a large amount of moisture. The
Paranid farm them and gently squeeze out this moisture, which they then use as a source of
water. The dry beans are then mashed, and processed to produce a type of basic foodstuff
used as the base for many of the Paranid different food types. It is traded as Soja husk. The
space installations growing these beans are called Soy Farms.
Soja Husk
Soja husk is the dried and processed form of the Soja bean. It is the number one food in the
Paranid territory. It can be mixed with many different indigenous things to produce a wide
variety of flavours. Soja husk are produced in space factories called Soyeries
Stott Spices
Stott Spices also known as Boron spices are highly regarded by all races in the known
universe. They are used to mix with many different basic foodstuffs to provide tastier foods
with more exotic flavouring and different flavours and tastes. They are traded in containers
known as Stott Jagos. It is not known to outsiders how the chefs working inside Space Stott
mixeries archive those delicate products out of just Boron Plankton and only few other
ingredients.
Super Slave Chips
Slave chips are neural implants used to allow pilots of spacecraft to have direct control over
his or her ship. The Super Slave has better range using the same hub technology, improved
perception, longer use and most importantly a built-in failsafe device.
Sunrise Flowers
Teladi sunrise flowers are large plants with blue leaves and stems and large white flowers
that originally grew in the vast open swamplands found on the Teladi home planet. Sunrise
Flowers are grown on Flower Farms nowadays because of the superior light and gravity
conditions in space. These flowers provide the Teladi with a number of different resources.
The stems and leaves are used as vegetable matter and provide the Teladi with their basic
foodstuff. The flower heads of these plants are gathered and pressed to produce a crude oil,
which is used for cooking and for heating purposes.
Swamp Plant
The Teladi Swamp plant is a small moss like plant that when dried and processed acts like a
narcotic known as Spaceweed. Swamp Plants are grown on small space installations the
Teladi call Dream Farms. Swamp Plants are also used as the resource for Nostrop and other
Teladi food products.
Teladianium
Teladi mud is a very fine silty type of sediment found at the bottom of rivers and swamps on
the Teladi planet. This mud when dried out becomes a hard mineral called Teladianium. This
mineral later can be mixed with certain chemicals, processed and can even be added to
synthetic plastics to create a tough flexible material stronger than hardened steel but much
lighter. In space Teladianium is produced in chemical plants called Teladianium Foundries.
Teladianium is used throughout the X universe by many races in the construction of buildings
and the interior structures of spaceships and space stations.
Teladianium Panelling
Teladianium panelling as produced in rolling mills at shipyards and when added to a ship's
hull provides extra protection from space borne particles.
Very Important Passengers
Very special passengers who have very special requirements when travelling. They usually
have several security guards and travel with a large amount of luggage.
Warheads
Warheads are needed in the production process of missiles. Most technical details about the
internals of warheads are kept secret.
Water
Water is transported in large gas-free containers all over the universe. Many sectors have few
natural sources of water and have to import their water requirements for drinking and
cleaning. In these sectors the water supply is the most important commodity.
Weapon Interface Chips
More commonly known as WICs, these weapon interface chips are used in large laser-based
weapons. They are an interface between the ships computer and weapon, designed to help
regulate the energy flow and to prevent illegal modification. Weapons cannot operate without
these chips. |
