Planet Toledo, home of the Order, was discovered and settled by Order forces in 730 A.S., while they were scouting in the edge worlds for a suitable location to establish a forward base in the Edge Worlds. A barely-hospitable ice world, the Order engineers focused much of their effort on establishing a sizable main base and several mining operations scattered around the planet. Eventually, living quarters and production facilities were installed, and the Order started using Toledo as their main base of operations, as well as for construction of their fighters. The population grew steadily, as the Order carefully recruited through their Zoner and Liberty government contacts, ensuring a constant stream of engineers, scientists and pilots to keep the Order functioning effectively.
Near the end of the Nomad War, Toledo was heavily bombarded by Nomad capital ships, damaging or destroying many of the Order settlements and bases on the planet. Following the war, with the planet Toledo no longer being a closely guarded secret, the Order embarked on a huge expansion project to encourage many more settlers, pilots and other technical staff to live there, as well as starting a terraforming project aimed at eventually making the whole planet bearable to live on. As of 816 A.S., the planetary population was estimated to be around 17 million people, most of whom are Order personnel and their families, who work in the support sections of the Order organisation to assist the ever growing naval forces.
With the Nomads seemingly on the move again, and the construction of a new bounty hunter base in a nearby Omicron system, the Order has stepped up its ship production, and freighter traffic to the planet has increased dramatically as more and more supplies are brought in to fuel the industry needed to protect the guardians of humanity.
Basic Information
Planet Toledo is located in Omicron Minor, one of the two systems under full control of The Order. It is the home of the Order and the main base from which operations occur.
Planet Toledo is a small frozen planet. All water on the surface of the planet is frozen. To obtain freshwater the Order has set up multiple drilling operations. The entire surface is covered in snow and ice and is home to very few lifeforms. Toledo does, however, have large plateaus that are high above what would be sea level. These lifted surfaces contain canyons in which various Order outposts have been built. These outposts offer protection and safety.
The atmosphere of Planet Toledo is very dense. To land on the planet one must make use of the installed docking ring or mooring fixture above the planet.
Settled Outposts and Landmarks
When the Order first discovered Toledo there were no human facilities in existence. As soon as they decided to settle there they began construction on one large outpost. This base then became to be known as Cape Hope. Cape Hope is at the end of Admiralty Canyon and is the only base accessible once entering the planet via the docking ring or mooring fixture. To get to the other facilities, one must fly close to the surface of the planet. Not many facilities have been constructed, however Cape Hope has become quite large, and the other facilities in existence are also very impressive and complex bases.
Current Order Outposts
- Cape Hope Station
- Pryde Station
- Hoff Station
- Orillion Shipwright
- Heathland Research Institute
- Chillmark Research Institute
These bases were constructed in key locations across the Planet. The Order had limited resources and used the environment to their advantage, constructing outposts inside the mountains of Toledo. Some locations on the planet have been noted.
Major Landmarks
- Admiralty Canyon
- North Pole
- South Pole
- Frio Plateau
- Calt Plateau
Native Lifeforms
Toledo may seem like a barren planet, however there are native life forms. The vast majority of the native lifeforms remain undocumented as the Order has other priorities and members of other factions allowed on the planet are restricted in their access to the the planet's surface. Known lifeforms include everything from microscopic viruses, to insects and larger animals.
Known Native Lifeforms
- Glacius Ice Beetle
- Bouyouc Shark
- Blanc Wolf
- Others
