Bikini Bottom



In 2401 a small research team from the Omega Research had finished 10 systems without any results or prospects. When it entered NSC-3302-13, it found Yoimy, a half frozen water world that hide an abundance of resources. Rather than share that information with the rest of the New Suns Consortium, Omega Research mismarked the system as without value.

Secretly OR would send a science team back to survey the water world. Wanting to avoid any detection, temporary colonies on what few land masses there were would cannibalized for undersea research stations on the ocean floors.

As the rest of the NSC was embroiled with infighting and uprisings, Omega Research was able to make huge advances. In order to safely explore the depths, technologies that would become the basis for ECM, Active Probes, and Null Signal. Even communications systems that would functionally be akin to C3 networks would be developed in order to in order to explore the world and it's fauna.

When the uprising occurred Omega Research was one of the few companies to escape violence. In fact, they had been instrumental in aiding several of the various resistance groups.

With the influx of aid from the Inner Sphere, the planet has become home to the NSR's only blue water navy. In exchange for technical and science technologies, the Free Worlds League as provided several vessels to assist in the defense of Bikini Bottom. The pride of this fleet are two ships, the NSRS Joshua Marik, a 4500 ton pocket cruiser, and a 13,000 ton light carrier, the NSRS Alys Rousset. Both ships lead a small fleet that includes a missile cruiser, and two submarines, along with other smaller craft.

A planet-wide, deep ocean covered by ice everywhere except near the equator. Vicious smooth-skinned ambush predators lurk in the ocean. They have large fangs. The air contains pheromones that induce an insatiable hunger.
