Description (Specifications)

Cassilldans (also spelled Casilldan or Cassildan) are a tall branch of Humaniti, abandoned by one of Grandfather’s Sons on a low gravity world in the aftermath of the Ancient War.

History & Background (Dossier)

Prior to discovery by the Vilani, Cassilldans were warlike, battling over the world's resources. The Vilani brought them order and discipline, vastly altering their culture.

Cassilldans were contacted by the Terrans during the Second Imperium (Rule of Man). Their total fascination with all things Terran, and a belief that they were to play a significant role in Terran history, led them in 605 to establish a colony on Terra (Solomani Rim 1827), on the coast of Lebanon near Tyre.
