Liberté

Liberté ('Liberty' in French) is a former colony bordering to the territory of the Frontier Militia. It is unknown when it was founded though it is believed that the first Human settler arrived sometime after Humanity's acceptance into the UGC.
Under the watchful gaze of the Upyri Federation this small colony developed around mining rare earth minerals. Eventually the colonists broke off from their corporate overlords, claimed independence and founded their own government. This government would also collapse, splitting the people of Liberté into numerous houses battling over resources.
Since then the planet has been a haven for military entrepreneurs, mercenaries and, later on, criminals.
The SSOID classify Liberté as a "high-risk location" due to some of the houses offering shelters for anti-Sol groups and terrorists.
== Climate ==
Predominately arctic, Liberté suffers from constant winter followed by week-long blizzards and hailstorms. To survive the harsh climate locals reside within reinforced bunkers, fortifications, castles and tall metallic structures built on elevated points. 
Anyone caught in a blizzard while traversing the deep valleys and ravines will have to battle against extraordinary odds to survive.
Local wildlife and flora revolve around the same principle: hard shells for protection, reinforced claws for defense and advanced ocular sensors for traversing the many underground caves. Most plants are, like the crab- and crayfish-like animals, carnivorous.
== Infrastructure ==
Industries on Liberté focus mostly around mining sites. Processing sites are found off-world as the locals lack the space to maintain such advanced equipment on the surface.
