This is the official lore archive, where you can find all pages that are lore-canon. If you would like to propose some lore, please link it in the lore proposal section. Official lore pages have been approved and are canon to Beestation (although they may still change at any time).
Lore Rules
- New lore should be consistent with old lore, thematically and in terms of coherency.
- Over-detailing should be avoided; the headquarters of the syndicate in the 1900s is not relevant information and doesn't help anyone. Don't be overly specific and leave room for interpretation.
- For example, give a century or relative timespan instead of an exact date ("The emergency response team was founded after the loss of a key station due to fire" rather than "The emergency response team was founded in 2643")
- There may be long texts in lore or detailed logs, however there should be a bullet point summary at the end which marks the rules for future lore entries.
- No fan-fiction level writing, don't include your characters in the lore. Characters should only be included if they are absolutely relevant (They are a legend, not just some normal worker or admiral)
- Lore pages should know what someone in the universe would know. Most lore pages may be from the perspective of Nanotrasen.
