'''Binterall''' is a barren [[planet]] situated among the [[Unified Earth Government]]'s [[Outer Colonies]] and located within proximity to the [[Human colonies|human colony]] [[Conrad's Point]].{{Ref/Reuse|htte3}}
 
==Overview==
===Topography===
The planet is described as a dry, rocky semi-wasteland,{{Ref/Reuse|hr32}} known for its dusty atmosphere.{{Ref/Reuse|htte3}} One of Binterall's major population centers, the trading community of [[Port Joy]], was settled in a short mesa in the south end of a dry lake bed, consisting of small buildings on the surface of the mesa with a few cut into its rocky sides. South of Port Joy were a series of hills.{{Ref/Reuse|hr32}} [[Water]] is a limited resource on Binterall.{{Ref/Reuse|hr33}}
====Locations====
*[[Port Joy]]
 
==History==
One of Binterall's early colonists is regarded as a heroine for locating [[water]] beneath the mesa that [[Port Joy]] would be settled around.{{Ref/Reuse|hr33}}
 
===Post-war===
In [[2557#August|August 2557]], the crew of ''[[Ace of Spades]]'' arranged a trade with Agent [[Walter Hahn]] of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] in the middle of Port Joy on Binterall, knowing that ONI would be reluctant to apprehend them in a colony filled with those disloyal to the [[Unified Earth Government]]. The meeting went south when the party was attacked by bounty hunters pursuing the bounty on the head of [[Rion Forge]], captain of ''Ace of Spades''.{{Ref/Reuse|hr33}}
 
ONI operative Maya Sankar had an old farmhouse in the outskirts on the planet, which served as a personal safe house she would retreat to whenever her cover got too deep. In mid-[[2558]], Maya had confined [[Mshak Moradi]] inside her safe house, depriving him of outside communication with a blackout array.{{Ref/Reuse|htte3}} After the [[Human-Covenant War]] came to an end, [[Chur'R-Zhal]] took to piracy around the planet and became stranded in the system after her [[Rampant Perdition|ship's]] [[slipspace drive]] failed.<ref>''Hunt the Truth'', Season 2, Episode 04: JACKALS</ref>
 
==Government and society==
Binterall is settled by a sparse [[human]] and alien population, serving as a waypoint for traders, [[Piracy|pirates]], mercenaries, and [[Salvaging|salvagers]]. The planet is home to a rough society with limited technology. Ruled by a crude system of government, Binterall is an insignificant, remote [[Outer Colony]] of the [[Unified Earth Government]] that held virtually no military presence. As a result, the planet was a haven for those eager to avoid the watchful eye of any government or military. None who frequent the colony are sympathizers of the [[United Nations Space Command]] or [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].{{Ref/Reuse|hr32}}
 
[[Port Joy]] is a major trading settlement on Binterall, a haphazard maze of small buildings offering varied services and goods for traders. Trade often resulted in the settlement holding enough ships to create several [[fleet]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|hr32}}
