Subsector P of Numbis Sector, a place where the Hivers interface with their neighbours.

Description (Specifications)[edit]

"Torrent" is a translation suggesting the fast-paced mercantile environment in this busy frontier sector. The Hive Federation, Krotan Primacy, Lithkind, nomadic Lishun Suugugki, and even K'kree merchants out of the Two Thousand Worlds are active here, and several systems are politically neutral, prospering from interaction with all.

In addition, there are three minor races native to the subsector. Two are part of the Hive Federation -- both low-population cultures engulfed completely by Hive cosmopolitan culture, and both administered from Zoru (Numbis 2737). The third are the Lalendri, who wound up on the K'kree side of the borders when the Hiver-K'kree War concluded.

The subsector is vibrant and diverse, but there is also some degree of tension, as K'kree space comes as close as it ever does to Hiver borders, and presses up against the Sha Elden Lith Kindriu.

Major Historical Events Timeline: 1116[edit]

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this area:

  • -2029 to -2013: The Hiver-K'kree War threatens the Hiver community.
    • -2023 to -2018: As a consequence of organizing defence during the war, the modern Hive Federation is codified.
    • Technological aid to nations like the Krotan Primacy and the Sha Elden Lith Kindriu results in a "hardening" of the K'kree-Hiver border.
    • The K’kree surrender and withdrawal is claimed to be the result of Hiver psychohistorical manipulation. Ithklur history, in the form of the Dikrah Kiradgi, records a different version of events.
  • The Year 0: Far to spinward, the Third Imperium is founded.
