Hellas

Hellas is short for Hellas Planitia, a large landmass on the southern half of Mars. It is also the site of a United States military base. The base commander is Col. Ambrose Fuller.

The base, nicknamed "Hell" by the soldiers stationed there, is unarmed. However, the soldiers are all highly trained in martial arts and unarmed combat, and serve mainly as a deterrent to any factions wanting to start another conflict like Luna's War. The base is mainly used for top secret research and design work, as no other country has landed a population of any significance on Mars.
