Char was formerly one of the thirteen core worlds of the Confederacy, but it is
most notorious as the primary hive planet of the alien zerg. Upon its discovery,
Char was found to be an inhospitable volcanic planet with thick ash covering
most of its surface and tainting its acrid atmosphere. The hazardous environment
is further intensified by extremely high levels of cosmic radiation from Char's
volatile pairing of binary stars, a class VI F0 sub dwarf orbiting an M8
irregular variable. Char's elliptical orbit means whole regions of its sunward
face can become molten seas during a close approach, with temporary islands
forming in them due to rapid cooling as the planet swings away to the frozen
outer reaches of the system.
殎曾经是联邦的第13个核心殖民地,但目前为异形种族的主要巢居星球而恶名远播。从发现
时的探勘显示, 厚重的灰烬覆盖住大部分的地表,大气层也充满强蚀性气体,殎被认为是
不适合居住的火山活动星球。殎所处的活跃双星系统 - 一个等级四的F0次白矮星以不规则
的方式环绕着另一颗M8恒星, 所放射出高强度宇宙辐射,让殎星球的危险环境更加恶劣。
殎的椭圆轨道,造成地表向阳面在接近时有如翻腾的海洋,离开恒星时反而急速冷却形成不
稳定的岛群。
In spite of the hellish conditions, Char was originally settled to exploit its
fantastically rich reserves of heavy metals to fuel the rapidly growing
Confederate economy. However, the planet became a source of friction between the
Terran Confederacy and independent mining guilds operating out of Moria.
不论其地狱般的环境条件,殎的殖民地原本最为人称道的,是挖掘其梦幻般的丰富重金属矿
藏,并支持着联邦的经济发展。然而,这个星球也成为了人类联邦与莫瑞亚独立矿业工会摩
擦不断的争端。
When these disputes escalated into open conflict, some of the bitterest battles
of the Guild Wars took place on Char as both sides attempted to secure the
planet. In areas like Death Valley and Glass Flats, unrestrained use of nuclear
weapons awoke slumbering volcanoes into fiery new life and pushed the already
heavily irradiated surface to levels that were lethal even for armored marines.
当这些争论最终演变成台面上的公开对峙,双方为了争夺这座星球,公会战争里有些最惨烈
的战斗就在殎上面展开。如死亡谷地与镜面平原这两个战区,毫无限度地使用核子武器的结
果,是唤醒了休眠的火山群进入喷发期,让已经遭受严重侵蚀的地表不断隆起,其恶劣的环
境比全副武装的陆战队更致命。
In the aftermath of the Guild Wars, the Confederacy presence on the devastated
planet was limited to a few maintenance teams for automated mining sites. All
personnel lived on a space platform, Char Aleph, which was built in near orbit
over the planet. During the zerg invasion ten years later, Char was rapidly
overrun by the Swarm and became the zerg's primary hive planet in the Koprulu
sector, to the extent that zerg tunnels are now estimated to extend beneath more
than 40% of the world's surface. Char Aleph was also infested and began serving
the zerg as an orbital nesting site and hatchery.
在公会战争的後续发展中,联邦在这个经过严重摧残星球上的势力,仅限於少数几个维护小
组以及自动化的采矿厂址。所有的人员都居住在近地轨道的太空平台 - 殎.阿利芙上面。当
异形开始侵略的十年间,殎很快地被群体所攻陷,并成为异形在克普鲁星区的主要巢居星球
。目前估计大约有超过40%的地表,被异形的扩张管束与和渠道深入岩层。殎.阿利芙目前也
被异形感染做为轨道上的巢居与孵化基地。
There has been a great deal of speculation over the zerg choice to occupy Char,
given its harsh environment and total lack of any organic life forms to exploit.
Theorists are evenly split among the ideas that Char forms a useful jump-off
point to the core worlds of terran and protoss space, that its inhospitable
nature makes it easier for the zerg to defend it, or that Char's high radiation
levels promote an increased rate of mutation in zerg organisms to enable forced
evolution of specialist strains.
对於异形为何要占领殎行星有着许多猜测,尤其是因严峻的环境条件以及完全没有任何有机
生物能存活其上。研究学者分成众多意见,主要的观点还是在於殎是个重要的舰队跳跃点,
能抵达人类的核心殖民地与神族领空。它无法居住的自然特性也让异形防守起来比较简单。
或是殎星球的高度放射性,提供了异形生物组织突变良好环境,更容易演变出特殊品种。
Regardless of the reasoning, the zerg presence on Char has ensured that the
planet has remained a cauldron of battle. Protoss and terran forces have
attempted infiltration missions on the planet with varying degrees of success.
Huge and bloody battles were fought there amongst the zerg themselves as the
Queen of Blades overthrew the cerebrates controlling the Swarm. Four years ago
three entire fleets met their demise when they confronted the Queen of Blades on
Char. The Queen of Blades emerged as the dominant power in the sector after an
apocalyptic battle that destroyed a Terran Dominion fleet, a protoss armada, and
finally the UED expeditionary force. Since then the zerg have remained
curiously quiescent, apparently content to remain on the worlds they infested so
rapidly during the initial invasion.
除了这些因素,异形在殎上面的出现,也让这个星球成为如沸锅般的战场。神族与人类武力
尝试着渗透进入星球内部,并获得某种程度的成功。在刀锋之後推翻脑虫们并且掌握群体之
前,异形彼此间也发生过大型且血腥的战斗。四年前,三只完整舰队试图在殎上面挑战刀锋
之後,得到的却只有彻底死绝。刀锋之後在一场毁灭性的战斗中,击败了人类帝国武力,神
族舰队,以及UED的远征军,并成为这个星系的统治力量。但令人不解的是,相对於他们初
期极为快速的侵略与感染,目前的异形保持着一种不活跃的状态,
