Canceron (Colony)

Canceron is a major Terran Federation colonial world.

Ancient History
Canceron was once home to a technologically advanced species capable of interdimensional travel. However, the species vanished from the planet 2,000 years ago when refugees vanished after large tidal waves placed most of the planets cities underwater. Ruins have been observed underwater, sometimes protected by large sea serpents.

Human Colonization
In 2145, the planet was discovered by a probe launched by the Planetary Colonization Administration. The planet was later colonized by the Terran Federation, with its first city, Cancer City, being built along the side of the eastern beach of the largest continent. Over the years, farms were estblished along the surface of the planets oceans. The farms were used to harvest kelp and manufacture food from the kelp, exporting it off world. However, a failure in kelp crops led to some adapting, less than legal activities.

Illegal Activities
In 2155, Bruno Jenkins, the Governor of Canceron violated the Three Laws of Colonization by establishing a mining station on the floor of the ocean. The station was meant to mine a chemical known as Keltug, which serves as a powerful protein supliment in responce to kelp crop failures on the planet. However, a group of colonists began to suspect the governors actions and launched a private investigation. When evidence of the governors actions was discovered, they presented it to the population, that the governor was secretly stockpiling the kelp in order to continue the mining operation. The governor was eventually desposed and Luke Gaert took his place and shut down the mining operation.
