History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Portions of Antares were settled during the First Imperium.

  • As early as -8150 the Bureaux Naasirka won the right to develop a region in the Antares Sector, as well as bases and colonies connecting to the region.

The traditional symbol for Antares -- a series of triangles -- has been in use for more than 5000 years, but interpretations changed with time. Classically, the symbol represented a mountain range on Gaakish, the Vilani capital world for the region. As the Vargr population increased, Vargr came to see the triangles as Vargr claws.

Historical Eras[edit]

The Ancients were active here, seeding Human populations at Ambemshan, Irale and Gashagi, the latter of which was once considered a potential origin point for Humaniti by the Vilani, prior to confirmation of the Solomani Hypothesis. The Ancients also constructed the artificial environment at Brygwaid.
