Beyond

== Beyond ==
Beyond was a planet inhabited by humans of UNSC and other factions as a mining center. It was one of the first outer colonies that the UNSC inhabited and used as a money maker rather than a residential planet. The first ones their named it Beyond because it was beyond inner reach and could be an independant area if ignored. A lot of Innies took up residence in Beyond because of this, and it was considered an independant planet as of 2530. In 2539, the planet was glassed by the Covenant, and this caused it to be a winter waste later on, adding to it's already cold, Hoth-like environment. As of 2625, the planet now has a summer witch lasts 1/10 of the year. On top of that, a common illness people get here is Frostyte, a disease wich causes the cells in the host body to "freeze" over, or develop a cryo coating around it. The coating produces spikes, and when they puncture the other cells, those cells develop it, and so on. Over 3000 Frostyte victims get sent to hospitals on Beyond each year, and over 50 die.
==== Politics ====
As stated previously, this planet was independant and nearly Innie, but it was also affiliated with the UNSC to a small extent. As of 2625, the planet is independant, as are it's residents and it has lost contacts with the UNSC.
==== Culture ====
The culture of Beyond was mainly like the culture of colonies like Meridian, incredibly Xenophobic and unaccepting of the UNSC and others. Ironically, the ODST Katlyn Cathers was born here.

==== Oro ====
Oro is the only moon of Beyond and is also considered habitable. It has an independant research station on it, witch deals with things like xenology and xenoarcheology. Other than that, there's nothing notable about Oro.
