Terran Confederacy (formerly)

You may be looking for Brontes IV, the setting for StarCraft: Insurrection, or the Brontes system.

Brontes had been an important terran colony, a core world of the Terran Confederacy.[1] Settled by 2478, it appears to have been a comparatively peaceful world during this period.[2]

Its connection to the Brontes system is unknown.

[edit] History

In 2496, Senator Canon and his bodyguard (and lover) Agent Nuura Joss campaigned there, pledging to fight corruption. He narrowly survived assassination by a Korhalian upset at the destruction of his world. Joss rescued Canon and killed the would-be assassin. The two were later ambushed by a ghost, who knocked Joss out and killed Canon with a knife, framing Joss for the murder. She was arrested and charged with treason, although the public generally viewed it as a crime of passion.[3]

[edit] Great War

A skirmish called "the Battle of Brontes" took place in space between Confederacy forces led by Edmund Duke and the Sons of Korhal. The wrecked ships continue to float in space.[4]

Brontes was infested by the zerg early in the Great War.[1]

[edit] Dominion Reclamation

The Terran Dominion made the space around Brontes into a salvage yard as it needs all the ship parts it can get. As a result, the salvage hasn't been cleaned out by salvagers, raiders and thieves. The Dominion assigns a low priority to this region of space, however, so it is not well-guarded; criminals such as Rosemary Dahl are sometimes able to sneak in and steal something.[4]
