Elissa IX, more commonly known simply as Elissa, is the ninth planet in the system and has a single moon named Miranda.<ref name="otprc6"/>

===Planetary History===
 +
Originally settled by people looking to escape from technology, Elissa was subsequently conquered by the [[Oberon Confederation]] during the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]]. Allegedly part of the nature preserve that formed the [[Elysian Fields]] the Confederation actually strip-mined the world for the few resources it offered and brutalized the population.
 +
 
 +
In [[3049]], Clan forces "marked with wolf's-head Insignia" attacked Elissa, facing only token resistance from the planetary garrison and issuing personal challenges. [[ROM]] Agent "Mirrorshades" managed to send an emergency report out as the HPG complex came under fire. The report abruptly cut off as the HPG was destroyed.  In truth it was not [[Clan Wolf]], but [[Clan Ghost Bear|Clan Ghost Bear's]] 312th Assault Trinary, the Silver Kodiaks, whose insignia is a bear's head in profile. Their commander, Star Captain [[Edwin Gilmour]] had hoped to find a top-secret Star League research facility for Project Achilles. Instead, they found abandoned mines in the mountains. Refusing to garrison a planet that was the source of such shame, the Ghost Bears left.<ref name=CS65/><ref name=ICp18f>''Invading Clans'', pp. 18–19: "The Invasion Begins"</ref>
 +
 
 +
Rid of their pirate overlords the population heaved a sigh of relief and went back to their own lives.<ref name="otprc6"/> In [[3052]], Tukayyid [[Conal Ward]] initiated a Trial of Possession for the world, after which it became the base for [[Thirty-first Wolf Solahma (Clan Wolf)|Thirty-first Wolf ''Solahma'' Cluster]] as they pursued bandits and pirates through the Periphery.<ref name=ICp18f/> In late [[3055]], the inhabitants noted that traffic to an abandoned mining facility in the mountains increased dramatically, but didn't alert anyone because they didn't want the Clan leadership to interfere with their lives. Though persistent rumors claimed the [[Red Corsair]] was on the world, it wasn't until the [[Kell Hounds]] arrived that anyone believed them.<ref name="otprc6"/>

Elissa was a stronghold of the [[One Star Faith]], who settled there prior to the Clan Invasion. Several One Star adherents even traveled from Elissa to the Clan Homeworlds where by [[3067]] the faith had spread among the lower Castes and [[Clan Cloud Cobra|Clan Cloud Cobra's]] [[Star of the Magi]] [[Cloister]]<ref>''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 11</ref><ref>''Interstellar Players'', pp. 77–78: "Faith Among the Clans"</ref>

The world was taken by [[Clan Hell's Horses]] sometime during the [[Jihad]]. They remained in power through [[3085]], but by [[3086]] they had left Elissa completely. In [[3087]], Elissa joined the [[Ferris Collective]], a group of several systems that had been abandoned by the Horses.<ref>''Interstellar Expeditions: Interstellar Players 3'', p. 43</ref>

The Wolves didn't garrison the world once they had captured it. The only thing the world really offered was its position, but even this was better handled through other locations. In 3052 it became the baseworld and repair depot for the [[31st Wolf Solahma (Clan Wolf)|31st Wolf Solahma Cluster]] as they pursued bandits and pirates through the Periphery. In late [[3055]] the inhabitants noted that traffic to an abandoned mining facility in the mountains increased dramatically, but didn't alert anyone because they didn't want the Clan leadership to interfere with their lives.

HPG ClassB (Destroyed, 3049),[38]
None[1]

Elissa IX, more commonly known simply as Elissa, is the ninth planet in the system and has a single moon named Miranda.[1]

Planetary History[edit]

Originally settled by people looking to escape from technology, Elissa was subsequently conquered by the Oberon Confederation during the Succession Wars. Allegedly part of the nature preserve that formed the Elysian Fields the Confederation actually strip-mined the world for the few resources it offered and brutalized the population.

In 3049, Clan forces "marked with wolf's-head Insignia" attacked Elissa, facing only token resistance from the planetary garrison and issuing personal challenges. ROM Agent "Mirrorshades" managed to send an emergency report out as the HPG complex came under fire. The report abruptly cut off as the HPG was destroyed. In truth it was not Clan Wolf, but Clan Ghost Bear's 312th Assault Trinary, the Silver Kodiaks, whose insignia is a bear's head in profile. Their commander, Star Captain Edwin Gilmour had hoped to find a top-secret Star League research facility for Project Achilles. Instead, they found abandoned mines in the mountains. Refusing to garrison a planet that was the source of such shame, the Ghost Bears left.[38][25]

Rid of their pirate overlords the population heaved a sigh of relief and went back to their own lives.[1] In 3052, Tukayyid Conal Ward initiated a Trial of Possession for the world, after which it became the base for Thirty-first Wolf Solahma Cluster as they pursued bandits and pirates through the Periphery.[25] In late 3055, the inhabitants noted that traffic to an abandoned mining facility in the mountains increased dramatically, but didn't alert anyone because they didn't want the Clan leadership to interfere with their lives. Though persistent rumors claimed the Red Corsair was on the world, it wasn't until the Kell Hounds arrived that anyone believed them.[1]

Elissa was a stronghold of the One Star Faith, who settled there prior to the Clan Invasion. Several One Star adherents even traveled from Elissa to the Clan Homeworlds where by 3067 the faith had spread among the lower Castes and Clan Cloud Cobra's Star of the Magi Cloister[39][40]

The world was taken by Clan Hell's Horses sometime during the Jihad. They remained in power through 3085, but by 3086 they had left Elissa completely. In 3087, Elissa joined the Ferris Collective, a group of several systems that had been abandoned by the Horses.[41]
