Testing space for a lot of weird shit. Examples of most infoboxes are commented out in the source for this page. Look at your own peril. Also, Starbase Kickass and its associated shenanigans are Totally Canon. All events are real and undocumented as no one wants to admit they exist.

Kolar Blight
A throwaway joke about an Orion post-modern punk band that has taken on a life of its own. It's more like a super-group, constantly evolving, members coming and going. They've been around since at least the mid 2370s. Hits include
- Agency Crisis
- Fight for Paradise/Kick ‘em before they Stand
- A foulmouthed anti-fascist rant directed at one Admiral Layton and his attempted coup during the Dominion Cold War. The chorus is notable for rhythming Layton with as many expletives across as many Federation languages as is reasonable.
- Pah-Wraith Disco
- Did poorly on the Bajoran Top 100. But made the Top 100. What does that say?
- Martian Rhapsody
- You wouldn't think a punk band to do a dirge, but somehow they pulled it off. Noted for beating the Bajoran and Klingon entries in the 2386 Bajoran Dirge Competition.
Kyban
Kyban is one of the more populous worlds in the Archanis Sector, featuring a population of just over 300 million citizens spread across the equatorial archipelagos that form the majority of the planet's usable land surface. Not far from the Federation-Klingon border, this world saw its share of tragedy in its early years, even briefly occupied by Klingon forces during the first Federation-Klingon war. Over the last century however the world has prospered thanks to the Organian Peace Treaty and subsequent Khitomer Accords largely protecting the peace of the shared border. A stable border, a temperate if not desirable climate and abundant resources on the world and within the star system have contributed to the prosperity of the world as well.
In the last few decades however Kyban authorities have taken it upon themselves to work towards ensuring the safety of their world independent of Federation security promises. While this is a work in progress, the Kyban Defence Force has completed the construction of a Class 1 orbital defence system and is working towards expansion to a Class 2 system sometime in the next five years. They also now count five system defence vessels in their inventory, primarily using them for system patrols and rescue work where required.
Notable locations
Ardot’s Café
This café, owned by the Bolian information broker Ardot Kresh, who also serves as the head chef, is known in better circles as a delightful well-known secret of Banksy City. Specialising in experimental recipes and fusion styles, the menu at Ardot’s Café will change repeatedly throughout the day based on a variety of factors - time of day, the weather, what Ardot has in stock and 'the whims of fate' as Ardot will profess when changes are updated.
For those with less savoury tastes Ardot's Café serves as the premier information brokerage for the entire Archanis Sector. This terribly out-there secret helps to add to the mystique of the café - one can never be entirely sure one isn't seated next criminal mastermind selling secrets, a superspy seeking his target or just a mild-mannered businessman seeking something a little different for lunch today.
Kyban Rookery
Kyban Rookery is the Starfleet Intelligence headquarters on Kyban. This facility oversees operations within the Archanis Sector, including those taking place inside the Klingon Empire. The Rookery's location is no secret as it is located at Federation Plaza, a small sector of Banksy City's CBD given over to the various branches of Starfleet and the Federation's bureaucratic organs that require a presence on the world.
