Oban is a mountainous human colony.
History
After the Human-Covenant War, the UNSC discovered the planet and used it as a home for millions of human refugees.[1] The UNSC Navy maintained a presence on the planet, using it as a staging ground for a number of highly classified military exercises, including Operation: DAYBREAK, located in the highlands of Saviron.[2]
On July 16, 2558, the planet was attacked by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant and his Promethean allies. The attack was advocated by Doctor Catherine Halsey, who believed that a bold move would attract UNSC Infinity. As Halsey predicted, Infinity was deployed to the planet and Commander Sarah Palmer led a joint Spartan-UNSC Marine operation in response to the attack. The UNSC eventually repelled the attack, and only minor damaged was inflicted upon a new power station halting the colonization of the planet. However, Jul's Covenant attacked Oban just to lead Infinity into a trap.[3]
A new, much more durable type of Promethean Knight was encountered on Oban during the attack.[4]
On October, 2558, a Guardian awoke on Oban taking an UNSC Marine who was on patrol.[5]
Trivia
It is likely the planet is named after the Scottish town Oban.
