Peladon was the home planet of the Peladonians.
Astronomical Data
Peladon was similar to Earth in temperature, gravity and atmosphere. It was known for being especially stormy, and dangers from the wind and rain were constant. Peladon had three moons, which made navigation difficult. These constant storms meant that plants were difficult to grow, since there generally was not enough sunlight. (NA: Legacy) One of the major locations was Mount Megeshra. (DW: The Monster of Peladon) The planet was rich in trisilicate (DW: The Monster of Peladon) and granite, but had no chalk. (NA: Legacy)
Native species include the Peladonians, the Aggedor (DW: The Curse of Peladon) and the Equinna (NA: Legacy).
History
Around 6100 BC, the Osirian Sekhmet was banished from Phaester Osiris in a salt spacecraft, landing on the planet Peladon, where she lay for 10,000 years. (BFA: The Bride of Peladon)
Early in Peladon's history, King Erak attempted to take over the whole planet. He was eventually overthrown by Gart and his son Sherak, though Gart allowed Sherak to take the credit and become king. (NA: Legacy)
At some point between the 26th and 29th century, Humans occupied, and even became dignitaries on the planet, one such being Lady Rosilie of Peladon. (TDL: The Graves of Mordane)
In 3864, Princess Ellua of Earth crashed on Peladon. After King Kellian helped her contact the Galactic Federation, he fell in love and married her. Though Peladon applied to join the Galactic Federation, they decided that Peladon needed more time to develop, and planned to return in 3885. In 3865, Ellua had a son named Peladon. (NA: Legacy)
Circa 3885, Peladon was king and was trying to get Peladon accepted into the Galactic Federation, a move opposed by more conservative Peladonians, such as High Priest Hepesh. The Time Lords sent the Doctor and Jo Grant to Peladon to help the process. (DW: The Curse of Peladon)
In the later years of Peladon's reign, he opened Peladon to refugee Ice Warriors from the New Martian Republic. (CC: The Prisoner of Peladon)
Circa 3935, during the Federation's war with Galaxy 5, the planet was found to contain trisilicate, which was vital for the war effort. The lower classes were forced into mining the trisilicate, which caused further unrest between the classes. (DW: The Monster of Peladon)
In 3985, King Tarrol invited Federation delegates to Peladon for his coronation. During the course of this event, many of the sacred artefacts were stolen, the Doctor was accused of the murder of Lianna and "executed", all aliens were banished from Peladon, the Ice Warrior delegate Savaar was blamed and "executed" for attacking the High Priestess Atissa, and the Diadem, an ancient artefact of evil, was brought to Peladon. In the end, the problems were solved, but the Advisor Geban was killed by the criminal Nic Reece and the High Priestess Atissa departed for the dark side of Mount Megeshra.
Seeing the destruction that had been done, King Tarrol decided that Peladon needed to see if it could survive on its own, and severed all ties with the Galactic Federation. Though King Tarrol intended the Federation to return in 4035 to see if more help was needed, the Dalek invasion in the 4010s meant the collapse of the Federation. (NA: Legacy)
Around 4035, Sekhmet was awoken by the blood of four princesses. (BFA: The Bride of Peladon)
