History
Beta was colonized in October 2004 by Water Sleeps under the leadership of Queen Kestrel. The blockade was contested by Allied Foundation.

The main phase of building construction finished in January 2005. Water Sleeps celebrated this by throwing the One Million Poe Beta Blast party in February 2005, giving away a full one million poe in cash and prizes (including the deed to a weavery shop, which is now Mouse on the Loom).
