OXPs
Famous Planets 2.0
Xezaor is known for its tundra and swamp landscapes. Xezaians have found a way to refine the swamp mud into swamp oil. This swamp oil is an industrial lubricant used in ship maintainance. When not at work the Xezaians gamble their daily wages in the planet's numerous, if utilitarian, Hoopy casinos. (Famous Planets 2.0.OXP)
Fiction
The Dark Wheel
The Dark Wheel is a novella by Robert Holdstock. It was included with the original game Elite, and is available on Ian Bell's Webpage on Elite.
| Out of Witch-Space: the dizziness, the slight shudder, the brief disorientation. Ahead of them, the distant, red-blue disc of the planet Xezaor was only slightly brighter than the gleaming field of stars around. The planet's sun was dim and very close by. It glowed red. A dying star, as the world ahead of them was a dying world, a cooling world, a world whose wealth and industrial development could not hold back the process of Galactic ageing. Xezaor was a world where luxuries and warmth meant everything, now, and Shanaskilk fur, with the multiple heads still intact, would fetch a high price. |

The Traders Almanach
If every Credit counts, try this: Best choice in Xezaor is to haul either antique Xezaorian hunting crossbows or microprocessors to Solageon. 's best to take those crossbows, they give a quite nice 55 to 63%. As another thought, you can also transport those crossbows to Reesdice or Edorte, although they give you not as many credits there.
