A poor, non-industrial world located in the Arnakhish Subsector of Dagudashaag. Kemnagii is a member of the Imperium.

Kemnagii is a gas giant moon. Colonized initially by Makhidkarun during the First Imperium, the settlement was deserted for centuries. It was recolonized primarily as a slave depot, transporting thousands of native Chirpers throughout the Vland Sector as personal servants. With the onslaught of the Long Night the colony was forced to work along side the remaining Chirpers in order to survive. Over the centuries a unique culture developed in which Human children were paired with Chirpers from birth, both then working as a bonded partnership throughout their lives – sharing everything. So deep was this bond that when one dies, the other often committed suicide rather than continue living without their partner.

Then, in 756, Makhidkarun filed for ownership of the planetary resources – a legal battle they won – and returned to strip mine the planet.

By 1115 fewer than a thousand bonded Kemnagii pairs still exist in the outback. Makhidkarun had brought in thousands of offworld workers who treat the natives very badly. Hundreds of complaint have been filed of sophont ill-treatment, but to date nothing has been done. Scientists have estimated if this abuse continues the Kemnagii aborigines and chriper population with be extinct in less than 20 years.
