History & Background / Dossier[edit]
This world rose to prominence during the Vargr Campaigns (220-348) when the Imperial Navy established an advance base here. Gishinridu was one in a chain of bases along the Imperium's near-coreward edge, acting as a "second line of defense" against the Vargr Extents. In later centuries, with no active hostilities against the Vargr, the facility was replaced with a Scout Base.
The Amber travel rating results from the presence of the Ka-rosas sect, which established a colony here in the 1080s. The sect proclaims violent racist policies and they insist on remaining isolated from "unclean aliens". There are dark rumours that the Ka-rosas sacrifice Vargr in secret bloody rituals, so that "order may be restored to the universe."
