History
Settled a year after Seersana and Karaka'Ana (the first planets colonized by the Pelted). The year of the settlement of Selnor, the Accords were signed, which marks the birth of the Alliance as a political entity. All dates in the Alliance reckoning begin from this year (1 BA).
Flora and Fauna
- Flowers: fluorescent oranges, bright blues splotched with magenta and pink, coral petals shading to bright red at their curling edges. [6]
- Ducks with plumage in startling rose pinks or bright oranges edged in black. [7]
- Double-wings, ray-shaped aquatic mammals with four wings, set at right angles to one another, and forked tails [8]
- the hook-nosed eagle, which is found only at very high altitudes; this is the bird featured on Fleet insignia and flags. It's most commonly found in the mountain ranges around and near Terracentrus.
