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.

During the sixth year of the War in Heaven, the genocidal Second Wave attacked and destroyed Ordifica (PROSE: The Book of the War) in the year 2596 of normal-time, (PROSE: Interference - Book One) in order to remove the Remote, a cultural project of Faction Paradox, from the Spiral Politic. However, the House Military hadn't done the usual method of "erasing the text of the history-book" (which could be rewritten), but had "ripped the page itself out of history", creating a hole similar to that of 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 universe.  (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)
