From publisher blurb:
Rock Dread was considered so minor that in its initial survey, it wasn’t even given a name, but an alphanumeric designation. By the time the designator had been bastardized into the world’s name, it was on the front lines of an interstellar war, transformed into a strategic flashpoint bristling with weapons emplacements. After the war, the interstellar government reformed the installations as prisons housing some of the worst offenders in known space. Guarded by uncaring authorities and the planet’s hostile environment, the prisons have become crucibles where only the strong survive and the few who eventually leave — legally or otherwise — take their hard-bitten attitudes with them.
Port of Call: Rock Dread introduces Cepheus Engine and Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game (OSFRPG) players to this danger-ridden duality of a planet. Inside is an overview of how the information would appear in the PCs’ library database, physical planetary and system information, a brief history, a look at its administration, technology, and society, a quick guide to crafting characters that would hail from such a place and a diagram of one of the prison facililties.
Port of Call: Rock Dread. Dropping the soap is the least of your worries.
