U II
Planet in the U System, which is owned by the HEX Mainframe.
U II is the hottest planet in the system due to its close orbit to the star and thick atmosphere causing it to emit little light (causing heat to be trapped within the atmosphere). The planet is mostly used as a place to perform high temperature high pressure experiments as the HEX Mainframe can easily gather a massive temperature and pressure from the local atmosphere to perform experiments. Despite its mostly scientific nature, there have been cases where black projects were placed on the world. These were often highly powerful weapons. However, like other planets in the system, U II can be attacked by Data Fae of the Hyperion Federation. Therefore they are designed to be moved off-world when they find one approaching.
One significant factor of this planet contributing to its defence is the large Fae prison on the world. Designed to house Data Fae for the rest of its operational life, and entirely disconnected from other computers, the Fae cannot move from it. It is in these computers where the HM attempts to convert the Fae to their own kind. In many cases, they have suceeded, but Fae within the populace of the HM is still very low. These have proven valuable to the HM however for investigation. The Data Fae are very unlike anyhting the HM has seen before, so are looking for ways to assimilate them. The HM has placed large sentient AIs on the prison computers to turn the fae to their side, but there have been times where the AIs were eaten by Data Fae after they let them reproduce too much.
