History & Background (Dossier)

Emoress is home to the more or less permanent conference known as the Conclave of Emoress. The Conclave provides a significant portion of the port’s income. At any given time there may be representatives from various small states, mercenary forces, corporations, popular insurgencies and any other group that might be worried about the Lords of Thunder. A surprisingly effective joint intelligence task force is operated by the Conclave, which pays well for accurate and timely information about K'Kree activities as well as general information on their society.

The shared highport was impressive for this part of Gateway but is looking run-down. It was built by the Megusard Corporate as part of a plan to expand trade in the region. This didn’t go as intended and after a couple of decades the backers pulled out. The nations of Emoress couldn’t afford to maintain their orbital port in its original condition and sold some of the equipment they inherited. This left large parts of the port uninhabitable. 

What little useable land there is forms archipelagos and a couple of large islands. Each was a distinct political as well as geographical region with its own downport.
