Earth:

While many colonial citizens have never set foot on the home world of the human race, Earth still holds a special place in the history and politics of humanity. As heavy industry moved into space and terraforming technologies were developed, the once overpopulated, polluted planet has been restored to the lush paradise it once was. It is still home to nearly a third of the human race and remains our cultural center.

 


Oasis:

One of the very few planets yet discovered that is teeming with indigenous plant and animal life, Oasis is a paradise in space. It is home to millions of colonists, as well as the Colonial Defense Force Training Command (CDFTC) and Advanced Projects Research Facility (APReF).

 


Ragnarok:

A planet just outside of colonized space, Ragnarok is a barren wasteland of ice and very little atmosphere. Except for a handful of remote telemetry probes (which have since ceased functioning), it has been untouched by humans, or any other life form.

 


Mikhal's World:

Countless military personnel who have been assigned to garrison the remote listening post here have cursed Mikhal Ivanovich, the astronomer who discovered this tiny piece of rock. On the frontier of human space, this post was established to monitor radiation signals in hopes of discovering intelligent life. Thus far, it has found no evidence that we are not alone.

 


Novus Prime:

Though not as verdant as Oasis, Novus Prime is indeed a planet of valuable resources. Her history is filled with battles between rival corporations fighting for the right to exploit her riches. Today the planet exists as a kind of commercial center, exporting huge quantities of foodstuffs to less hospitable planets such as Anubis. The ever-increasing population of Novus Prime may yet lead to the problems that once marred Earth. As for now, it exists as one of the more impressive and important planets within Colonial Space.

 


Anubis:

Rich in mineral resources, this desert world is only barely habitable by humans. Hobb's colony, the only human colony on the planet, is a commercial mining facility established six years ago. The lower altitudes of the planet are blasted by constant high-speed sandstorms. Tall, thin mountains and mesas jut above the chaotic storms into the calmer, cooler middle atmosphere.

 


Hobbs Colony:

Hobbs colony is named after an eccentric man named Jacob Hobbs. A new age zealot, he had been run off of several planets for his radical teachings before he and his followers arrived at the barren planet of Anubis. To fund the colony, Hobbs made a deal with Draktar Mining Corp. to run their ferrobauxite extraction operation. Draktar executives jumped at the chance to hire the Hobberions since they were the first people who actually wanted to live on Anubis. Before Hobbs took over, their mining operations had failed miserably due to unreliable personnel. In contrast, Hobbs' zealous followers actually volunteered for hard labor, and the mining operation became profitable. In return, Jacob Hobbs and the Hobberions were free to practice their beliefs.
