History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

A low population water world in the Nicosia Subsector of Old Expanses Sector.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility[edit]

Schall, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the estate and fiefdoms of three members of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversee affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.

Other Data[edit]

In 1098, the sophont status of the aquatic lifeforms known as Kiiroka, native to nearby Vras, was recognized immediately by Dr. Darch von Changli when he transported several to Schall for study.

  • The Marquis of Vras (Old Expanses 0738) initially suppressed the news and planned to exterminate the Kiiroka population on his planet. Before a genocide could take place, the coverup was exposed and the race in question, now known to Humans as the Schalli despite not being from this world, became Imperial citizens.
