Planet Background

A scarcely inhabited planet, it is in the prime of its lifespan. A fair portion of the planet is water, but there are three major continents, two being roughly equal in size (23,000 km wide, about 9,000 long). These two are on the east and west side of the third continent. They are all three separated by what has lately been called the Xafurst Sea.

No signs of mayor cities have been left on the planet's landscape. Most structures, such as the itc_headquarters and the Legion V military base, are solitary and don't stand in one place on the surface. They are however on the same continent thus far and are connected by primitive dirt roads. The ITC is working on improving the infrastructure. There are a few forests; most are on the eastern continent. The biggest forests, on the east continent, are called the Bolenn Woods and is nearly 2,000 km long and 4,000 km wide. The highest point is known as mount Kraz, on the island of Diborc Key, which is about 80,000 m(260,000 feet) high. The deepest point lies in the southern part of the Xafurst Sea, and is known as the Ketzuil Trench, about 6 km(20,000 feet) deep.

Surface temperature averages between -4 and 33 Celsius. There are two seasons: a sun season, in which temperatures rise to a average of 25 Celsius, and a rain season, in which temperatures may drop to a average of 5 Celsius. There is one large desrt on the planet, known as the Tzuik Desert, were temperatures lie between 50 Celsius at day, and 4 Celsius at night.

The planet has two moons, Dokusei and Usuikuki, one with a thin layer of superheated toxic xenon gas(Dokusei) in the atmosphere and the other with very little atmosphere(Usuikuki). They can both be seen in the night sky, Dokusei high above and Usuikuki close to the surface.

Several small asteroids orbit the planet as well, and are collectively known as the Nakama Rocks.

History

In late ye_28, the star_army_of_yamatai captured the planet from the Mishhuvurthyar fleets. It served as the first_expeditionary_fleet's headquarters for that year, and in ye_29, it changed hands to the Second Fleet. A kyoto-style base occupied the eastern continent. The smx later retook the world.

In YE 34, Legion V retook and occupied the planet.

In YE 35, an industrious Iromakuanhe merchant set up a BEST KEBABS stand outside the military base. Business is good.

In ye_35 the newly formed intergalactic_transport_corporation built their headquarters on the western continent.

In ye_36 the ITC built danketsu_station orbiting around Ushobrakflug. It became the first artificial moon orbiting around the planet.

In ye_36 the ITC started building on prototype_city_alpha in the space between the Legion V base and the ITC HQ. Progress is still ongoing.

Important Places

Legion V Base

Located south on the western continent, on a hilltop known as the Stryhm Pinnacle, the Base of the planet's protectors, legion_v contains a command base, a communications office, and a small space-port for incoming shuttles. Most of the soldiers are housed beneath the structures, in provisioned catacombs. This to prevent bombardments to kill all the soldiers at once. There are some refugee camps outside the base,of which the legion has guaranteed protection.

ITC Headquarters

Located eastern on the western continent, only 50 km (30 miles) north of the Legion V base, this structure has only recently been completed in ye_36. It is the home to most of the ITC personnel and commanding offices. The area surrounding the structure is known as the β€œBattle-Torn Fields”.

Danketsu Station

Home to the R&D division of the ITC, this is the first artificial satellite orbiting around the planet. It is still under construction, but the main core along with the cargo area and spaceport have been completed.

Prototype City Alpha

Considered the first civilian site on the planet, this project is supposed to bring in more citizens to the planet. Currently, there is enough housing to hold at least 200 people. It is located in the middle between the Legion V Base and the ITC HQ.
