During the [[Star League Era]] Necromo was best known as a minor shipping and transportation hub between the Capella and St. Ives Commonalities.<ref name=NNp4/>
  
While a relatively undeveloped world of rolling hills and forests, Necromo was of immeasurable importance to the Capellan military thanks to the self-contained [[DropShip]] repair facility and shipyard located in the system. The sole industry of the planet, with all goods and services having to be imported from off-world, operations in the system were so secret that only the intensely loyal workers were allowed on world, with no visits from family members and stringent censorship of all inbound and outbound communication. The [[Maskirovka]] had relaxed several of these restrictions by [[3055]].<ref name=HLp145/><ref name=NNp4/>

By [[3055]] the [[Maskirovka]] had relaxed several of these restrictions. Coincidentally, the [[Aris Memorial Yards]] were boosted into orbit the same year, placing them beyond the reach of any dissidents who might attack the facility. As a result of the increased workload, the system's population boomed.<ref name=HB:HLp73/><ref name=NNp4/>

Necromo's only real city, Landingplace, was located on world and featured a transparent dome so citizens could see the Aris Memorial Yards as they floated around the sky.<ref name=HB:HLp73/><ref name=NNp4/>

The world's isolation and low population made the location ideal for shielding the production of the Confederation's [[WarShip]] projects, but unfortunately made the world a prime target of the [[Word of Blake]] during their [[Jihad]].

Prior to Necromo's destruction, the world had been contested in [[3068]] as a part of [[Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE]], the attack on the Confederation conducted by [[Capellan March]] troops under the orders of [[Federated Suns]] [[Duke]] [[George Hasek II|George Hasek]].
