Hellas

Hellas was a human colony world during the Insurrection.

History
Along with Fumirole, the colony was one of two on which Insurrectionists were known to utilize Rumbledrugs in a vainglorious attempt to fight SPARTAN-IIs. Unencumbered by the body's normal safety limits, subjects were capable of feats of enormous strength, but the subsequent lack of control and mental instability together with the immediate physiological damage meant that users often died long before they ever laid hands on an actual Spartan.

The planet was glassed in 2451 during the Human-Covenant War.

Trivia
The colony is likely named after the Hellenic Republic (commonly known as Greece), a nation located on Earth.
