==History==
An insignificant system appearing on few navigational charts, the explorers who first discovered the three-planet system reported its inhospitable nature, a mixture of prehistoric monsters and heavy volcanic activity. With minimal water and no useful ores, most simply chose to forget the unexceptional planet and the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] led it to fall off what few charts it appeared on, save those maintained by [[ComStar]].

The largest planet, and the only one even barely capable of supporting life was dubbed Roxborough in [[3051]] after the eccentric ComStar [[Precentor]] Julian Roxborough who lead a small group of determined [[Terra]]n colonists to settle the world. While Roxborough died shortly after the planet was settled, the colonists realized that the planet lacked the conditions to allow them to establish a truly thriving community, but chose to stay in relative peace. Supported entirely by supplies and consumables from ComStar, the colonist established a small base, a cluster of ten buildings, concealed under a canopy of the planet's equatorial jungle for the use of the Explorer Corps based on the lack of records on the system and hostile environment, which was hoped would provide protection again a [[Clan]] attack by way of anonymity.

The "colony" is surrounded by barbed wire to protect its inhabitants against the various prehistoric creatures, the most notable of which is the [[Pteroraptor]].
