Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Karroo, as a member world of the Third Imperium has a member of the Imperial Nobility overseeing the world.

• It holds the estate of an Imperial knight.

History-Era: Rebellion

This planet was seized in 1128 by a mercenary company built around a renegade Army platoon from Lucan’s Imperium. Unable to make a good living because of poor supply, the company’s officers decided to quit the mercenary game and acquire some real estate. They chose Karroo.

• Twenty-five percent of Karroo’s people support the usurpers, who are led by Captain Shakala Iirdiisi. The rest would rebel, but can’t get off-world help: Captain lirdiisi has prohibited suspected partisans, on penalty of death, from leaving the world, and even from working near the starport.
• Fortunately, the Union of Sufren has learned of their plight and has asked Skerrit Adan to handle it. Adan is assembling a strike force to eliminate the invaders. Line troops and unit commanders are in equal demand.
