Ordifica

Ordifica was a water world (PROSE: Down) and the site of a 26th century human colony set up by the Faction Paradox. The planet's first settlers came to Ordifica in the 23rd century.

St Augustine City was one of the cities of the colony. The Cold was found to be present there and officials removed Fitz Kreiner from it after he had been in the Cold for the past six hundred years.

In 2596, (PROSE: Interference - Book One) during the sixth year of the War in Heaven, the genocidal Second Wave attacked and destroyed Ordifica because of Faction Paradox's Remote project located there. They did this by quite literally blowing a hole into the very fabric of the Spiral Politic itself, in a nature similar to the caldera. As the caldera caused the war against the Yssgaroth, the ruling Houses quickly patched up the hole with HEM (highest entropy matter) in fear more Yssgaroth may come through from their under-history.  (PROSE: The Book of the War)

Many of the survivors of this attack, including Laura Tobin, were set up on another colony by the Faction Paradox warship known as Anathema. (PROSE: Interference - Book One)

Frans Nils Kryptosa was born on Ordifica. When MEPHISTO rebuilt Tyler's Folly based on Kryptosa's memories, it designed the outside to resemble Ordifica. (PROSE: Down)

As a young girl, Sandra Johansen flew bugsprayers over the sea farms of Ordifica, but as a teenager she stowed away on a Hotop Company cargo shifter and worked passage to the Central Stars. (PROSE: Ghost Devices)
