History & Background[edit]

Asena has for centuries maintained a rigid social structure, stratified by age. This gerontocracy is advantageous to many Asenans, but stifles off-world trade. While hard-liners refuse to soften Asena's traditions, Asenan liberals agitate for at least moderation in the property and exchange laws to attract much-needed trade.

  • Although the war spared the people of Asena, internal disputes have caused widespread destruction. These disputes involve economic imbalances, military suspicions, and most destructive of all, disagreements over cultural matters.
  • The conflict heated up recently with the arrival of ex-Duke Starkar Beres, formerly the subsector Duke until stripped of his title in 1122 by Lucan. Beres has gathered a following which includes troops from the Union of Sufren and Skerrit Adan's regulars. With these crack units spearheading his forces, Beres has returned to Asena, his homeworld, to begin a bid for control of the subsector. He is also thought to have allies in the Solomani Reform movement.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]

Asena, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
