The MekPurr colonists on Outis originated from the Baast group in the Terran sector and formed a united colony which was granted Mm'srrl status in 2134. These MekPurr are not aligned with the inhabitants of Fastar which is a member of the Carthaginian Confederacy.
The MekPurr of Outis are quite numerous, considering the harsh conditions on the planet and live in well-automated semi-submerged dwellings which are as often as not covered by the shifting sands. The whole system is well patrolled, ensuring the safety of the water supplies which are extracted from the two gas giant taps in operation.
The air on the planet is thin and dust levels are high, so protective suits and respirators should be carried / worn at all times and personnel are advised to check the storm forecast well in advance of any travel which goes more than a few kilometres from a settlement.
This planet was once prosperous with life as is evidenced from the petroleum deposits found in many regions. It is not yet know what caused the decline in complex life forms but they have lost all hold on the ecosphere as it is all very dusty and desert conditions. The MekPurr have chosen not to exploit the planetary hydrocarbon deposits because of the high level of mechanical breakdown sue to the dust, it being easier to extract the required hydrocarbons from the gas giants in system.
