Arcadia is a tropical planet orbiting the star [[Procyon]],{{Ref/Reuse|enc298}} once famed for its dense, lush forests and jungles that covered most of the world's surface. Arcadia's landmasses were divided into six designated continents: [[Eire]], [[Pacifica]], [[Mu]], [[Caledonia]], [[Lemuria]], and [[Avalon]]. Even before [[human]]s colonized the planet, Arcadia already maintained environments and natural resources suitable for human habitation, requiring no aggressive [[terraforming]] measures.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint}} Arcadia's surface was largely unexplored beyond the colony's limited settlements and tourist zones, preventing the discovery of the [[Forerunner]] [[Arcadia Forerunner ruins|ruins]] on the planet for a long period of time.{{Ref/Reuse|enc298}} The [[water]] in the jungles of Arcadia likely contains many bacteria and protists that cause disease; [[Cadmon Lasky]] contracted diarrhea after drinking a mouthful of river water.{{Ref/Reuse|p2}} | Arcadia is a tropical planet orbiting the star [[Procyon]],{{Ref/Reuse|enc298}} once famed for its dense, lush forests and jungles that covered most of the world's surface.
