Hades

Location Mars
Type Planetary Colony

Demonym Martian

- This is a playable location -

Hades Colony is a controversial location. It was originally one of the first settlements and holy grounds built by the members of Home One and its First Generation, under the Veerhoeven Air-Space Corporation, it was torn down and a colony named Wayfar was built instead. Drawing the ire of the Coalition of Free Martians, Wayfar was mercilessly bombed, and rumor had it, that it was the site of a nuclear detonation as well. With the arrival of A.R.E.S however, a new attempt to create a new location was carried out, this attempt was eventually named Hades Colony.

Hades Colony was a medium sized colony (Between 10,000 to 20,000 inhabitants, not counting floating population) that was not under the direct command of any corporations. In fact, corporation presence was minimum in the colony. Sometime in 2489, the Donovan Commercial Cartel was brutally massacred in the Colony by A.R.E.S forces, with rumors of a few survivors, a new organization would silently move in, the Kakusareta Akuma, also known as the Hidden Demons. While still relatively new in the colony, the Hidden Demons pushed for business opportunities for the inhabitants (As reflected by the creation of the Water Merchant Guild, and the recently instated Heavy Metal Industry). Today, Hades Colony has seen a resurgence after being rebuilt, and with increased industry and housing opportunities, it now houses over 50,000 inhabitants, it is also known to be the Hidden Demons' main base of operations on Mars.

It has one of the best orbital defense systems ever created, the complexity of our defenses allows us to mix both elegance and exotic design, with efficiency and uncanny accuracy, there has never been an intrusion in the history of this location, and there shall never be one. Some companies have established its Headquarters on the Colony, like Morpheus Management Group or Genetectic, some others just live here and work in different places.
