Scorpia was known for its lush jungles and hot temperatures (TRS: "The Plan"). Scorpia's capital was Celeste.[1]
Before the First Cylon War one of the major leisure spots of the world was Argentum Bay, despite the colony's trashy reputation (The Caprican: "Argentum Bay: The Ultimate Vernal Break"). The Planet was also apparently well-known for its paragliding (TRS: "Razor") and its particular variant of ambrosia infamous for its potency and sulfur taste (CAP: "Know Thy Enemy").
After the Unification, Scorpia was home to the Scorpion Fleet Shipyards.
During the initial Cylon attack, Scorpia falls victim to numerous massive nuclear attacks, destroying much of the population. Cylon forces also focus on the orbiting ship yards, obliterating the structure, destroying numerous Battlestars and support ships, and causing another one to risk a blind jump in order to escape (TRS: "Razor", "The Plan").
Eladio Puasha serves as the planet's delegate to the first Quorum of Twelve assembled after the Fall (TRS: "Colonial Day").
Notes[edit]
- In an LA Times article, Scorpia is described as having a "scorpion tail-like half-ring".
