Noble (Ellis V) is a heavily forested planet in the Ellis system, United Empire of Earth (UEE), and is one of three habitable planets in the system.
In the early days after its terraforming, colonists established settlements and harvested resources as needed with little regard to preserving the natural environment. When visitors from the nearby planets Kampos (Ellis IV) and Green (Ellis III) began visiting Noble to enjoy its pristine landscapes, bringing a great deal of income with them, the Governors Council voted to roll back its urban development plans and instead focus on the creation of a tourist industry.
