Faun Hakkor
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Faun Hakkor is a planet in the Charum Hakkor system, which was once settled by ancient space-faring humans.[1] It shares its system with Charum Hakkor, Ben Nauk and twelve other planets.[2]
The Pheru were an animal species indigenous to the planet, and were popular amongst humans and San'Shyuum as pets.[1] It was also home to a type of semi-sentient tree, forests of which covered the planet. The trees had acquired a form of long-term intelligence, using insects, viruses, bacteria, and fungi as carriers of genetic and hormonal signals in order to communicate with each other over centuries.[3]
Around 100,043 BCE, the system was the test site for Installation 07, one of the twelve original Halo rings. The Halo was set to a low power setting, but still managed to kill every organism with a nervous system on the planet, the sentient trees included; all that remained were primitive organisms such as mosses, fungi and algae. The planet then went into a state of gradual ecological collapse.[3]
