History & Background (Dossier)

The 214th was stationed in Glisten prior to the Fifth Frontier War. When the war started, the Sword Worlders' Sacnoth Fleet did not go on the offensive, but remained content to patrol the border. This allowed the 214th to move forward from Glisten, fortifying and consolidating worlds one by one under the Imperial banner, until in mid-1109 it stood off the rimward border of the Sword Worlds. On 285-1109, the 214th struck, taking Steel, Mithril, Bronze, and Iron in a quick operation lasting less than 60 days. After a short rest, the 214th continued its attack and destroyed the Sacnoth Fleet in a pitched battle at Sting on 016-1110.

In the post-war fleet shuffle, the 214th was moved to Aramis subsector. It is headquartered on Aramis, with additional harbor assignments on Jesedipere, Natoko, and Paya. This fleet is one of the primary defensive fleets of the Spinward Marches.
