Heibohre

Asteroid home of the Changers, including an Academy for combat training.

Heibohre first appears in 'Consider Phlebas' as a sprawling asteroid transformed into the home of the enigmatic Changers, a shape-shifting species, complete with a prestigious Academy dedicated to honing combat prowess amid the Idiran-Culture War. Though it plays a pivotal role as a training ground and refuge, the asteroid sees no significant evolution or further mentions across the subsequent books in Iain M. Banks' Culture series, remaining a static footnote in the vast galactic tapestry. Its isolation underscores the Changers' peripheral yet intriguing place in the conflict's fringes.
