History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

The King of Kaagin, Lord Weatherford Truefellow, has an agreement with the Imperial Navy to supply recruits exclusively to the Navy and in return has been granted Naval Support Contracts.

  • The population of Kaagin, as well as nearby Scapa, Shetland, Sheffield and Gerim trace back to one of the more successful Reaver Warlords, in Kaagin's case combined with a long-established Vilani population descended from refugees of the Ziru Sirka.
  • However, the current ruling family have tried to bury this part of their history, preferring to promote their Imperial ties.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]

Kaagin, 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.

Language[edit]

A dialect of Vilani continues to be the primary language.
