Aerilon
The planet of Aerilon (also written Aerelon) is unique amongst the Colonies in having not just one, but three moons, with their mass sufficiently large enough to exert considerable tidal forces on the surface of Aerilon. Even tectonic activity has been modified by the presence of the three moons moon, making Aerilon the most volcanically active Colony. Aerilon society is similar to Picon cultural in that they are also a militaristic society, though the Aerilon of today is no more likely to start a fight than a Picon would. Aerilon society places great emphasis on physical prowess and skill, almost to the detriment of all other factors, including intellectual and cultural pursuits. As a direct consequence of this, Aerilon culture is considered almost barbaric by the other societies and the Aerilon sense of humor is not sophisticated, and has a distinct bawdy to it.

 

Aerilons are undoubtedly the best ground troops, which are why Aerilons have the highest membership of the Colonial Marine; in fact, Aerilon is host to the Marine Headquarters. The Aerilons are also a very athletic people, producing a good number of Golden Laureates at the Colonial Games. The Aerilon combat tactics, strategies and doctrines are unsurpassed by all other colonies and excel at combat. In general, Aerilons are rowdy, jovial and boisterous. They are rarely ever serious, except for physical competitions, matters of pride, and military issues where they display an amazing and surprising amount of determination and drive that is not visible in their normal behavior. They also tend to be courageous, and when the situation demands it, they can be tough as nails.
