Earth

The Earth is the third planet from the Sun and is considered to be the densest and fifth largest planet in the Solar System, though most of its surface is covered in water. It is also the only terrestrial object known to support life.

History

For several thousand years prior to the Great Catastrophe (75000 BCE) Earth was dominated by the Isu, a progenitor race to humanity, whom the Isu artifically created to serve as a docile workforce. Following the Great Catastrophe, an extinction-level event that wiped out most of the Isu and human populations,[1] the Earth was devestated and took tens of thousands of years to restore. When a second catastophe threatened to once again devestate the Earth on 21 December 2012, the Assassin Desmond Miles made use of the Eye, an ancient Isu construct designed specifically to protect the planet, at a cost to his own life.[2]
