Planetary Description

Babylon is one of the five Pentagon Worlds. It was the second established colony by the Star League-in-Exile. The planet has several large landmasses. It is a dry world, but has considerable mineral wealth.

The planet's system is rich with resources including a number of neighboring asteroids and planets. One such planet is Babylon VI (also known as Sinclair), which has several moons and a considerable amount of natural resources.

Notable Planetary Locations

  • Snaefell Mountains - Large mountain chain which shields a livable area from harsh elements of the Babylon's dry and windy climate.
  • Spiked Heart Desert

Planetary History

Colonization

Babylon is a dry world and was initially unpopular with League settlers when they first established their colony in 2786.[3] Early settlers ended up being struck down by what was called the "Babylon Plague", which consisted of pathogens and germs in the atmosphere. When colonists moved to more of the arid lands, they discovered the arachnid Goliath Scorpion. The Goliath Scorpions had attacked many of colonists with their deadly poisons when their nests were disturbed.[4]

The League established a Large Naval cache for decommissioned SLDF WarShips, the largest in the Pentagon Worlds.[5]

Operation Klondike

The 4 Clans assigned to liberate Babylon during Operation Klondike were Clan Sea Fox, Clan Ice Hellion, Clan Coyote, and Clan Cloud Cobra.
