Planetary Description & Notable Landmarks
Homer is a Clan world found in the Kerensky Cluster. The planet is noted for its rich mineral deposits and slight heavy gravity.
The planet Homer has low-water table, but largest bodies of water have toxic taints. The planet is dominated by large landmasses, named Caulder & Fortune. These super-landmasses are futher broken down by five pesudo-continents, mountain ranges, and four landlocked seas. The world has few rivers which draw water from both seas and underground lakes.
Massive water processing plants dominate the landscape, to support cities and their agricultural settlements on the planet.
Notable Landmarks
- Ochre Sea - Homer's largest landlocked body of water, like other seas, the water is tainted with heavy-metals rending them usable by humans. The Ochre Sea seperates superland masses of Cauldron and Fortuna. The Ochre, like other seas have non-eible life known as gila toad. Chief pretador on the planet, these toads are used for foot ware, which they are highly prized for. City of El Ghaza is off its north coastline.
- Sakros Mountains - This is the mountain range that breaks up the pesudo-continents of Amis and Ortin.
- Isthmus of Param (Mountain Range) - Mountain chain in Cauldron landmass which connects to the pesudo-continents of Bargin and Amis.
- Cauldron (landmass) - One of largest forms of geography on the planet, this region has been reserved for settlements for other Clans. Firebase Hermes, former Jaguar military installation is noted base in this region.
- El Ghaza (City) - Planetary capital city of Homer and Clan Cloud Cobra. The city located off the northern shores of Ochre Sea. It is the home of the Cobra's genetic repository and its majestic park known as Field of Remembrance.
Planetary History
Settlement and the World's original name
The world was originally settled in 2839, by settlers from Clan Cloud Cobra. These early first settlers had named this world Zara. In 2850, Clan Jade Falcon forces fought a Trial of Possession for the world, during this Trial Cloud Cobra Khan, Homer Telinov was killed. His death spurred the remaining Cobra forces to defeat the Falcons for control of the planet and named it after the fallen Khan.
Other Clans & Conflicts in the 31st Century
The Clan Smoke Jaguar was on of the early Clans that were allowed to settle the planet. As like all non-Cobra colonies, they were allowed to settle with Clan Steel Vipers to the Caldron region. This remained the norm until, Jaguars annilihated by Inner Sphere 's Great Refusal on Strana Mechty. The destruction of Clan Smoke Jaguar in 3060, caused Steel Vipers to attempt to seize Jaguar's enclave and their military outpost, Firebase Hermes. However, Cobras Khan, Din Steiner, dispatch forces and repulsed the Vipers from attempting taking the former Jaguar terriory, and offered it to the Snow Ravens.
In late 3061, Steel Vipers tourman had returned from Inner Sphere after loosing their Occupational Zone in war with the Jade Falcons. Viper brough vengenance down on Homer, soundly removed the Snow Ravens from the former Jaguar holdings. The Viper than threaten to retake rest of the planet for themselves. This caused Khan Steiner to bring consider mount of defense to capital, which intimidated Vipers from making any further incursions into Homer's interior.[1]
