HISTORY

A planet in the Acrux star system, dominated by a humaniod race, Aoran was the homeworld of a brilliant scientist who invented a device called the Starband to gain eternal life and great power. However, it also corrupted the mind of the originally good-hearted scientist and transformed him into an villainous being called Evil Star (II). Evil Star started terrorising the population of Aoran, including his own family. When the Aorans finally gathered their forces to oppose him, Evil Star annihilated them all – six million people and an entire civilisation.

Aoran was later re-populated by "the Freeminds", refugees from the planet Garon.
