Canon

Canon is everything which is generally considered to be part of the Star Control Universe, as intended by Toys For Bob.

In particular, canon are

• The Star Control game, including the accompanying manual
• The Star Control II game, including the accompanying manual and star map.
  • Possible discrepancies:
    • In the few cases where Star Control and Star Control II conflict (such as SC1's dates being 500 years later), SC2 takes priority.
    • The game generally takes priority over the paper starmap, the manual and the Role Playing Resource Guide.
    • When two in-game sources contradict each other, the information supported by the manual generally takes precedence.
• The Star Control II Role Playing Resource Guide (hints book)
• Anything Fred or Paul said on a public forum or chat (unless it contradicts established canon lore)
• Anything Fred or Paul said in private communcations but which was later released to the public (unless it contradicts established canon lore)

Explicitly not canon are

• Star Control 3, including the accompanying manual
• The Star Control novella Interbellum
