History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Heguz is a dangerous mystery. Two separate floating colonies, representing 90,000 inhabitants in total have simply vanished without a trace. The first in 649 to vanish within a year. The second in established 670 lasted until 931, but also vanished with almost 70,000 people. [2][3]

Despite extensive effort, no signs of either colony have ever been discovered.

The local Imperial Representative is a successful businessman named Ser Guztov. He has a reputation for being ready and willing to sell anything. His family purchased the mega corporation Play Mining & Shipping, when the entire executive board died in the disaster of the last floating colony of Heguz. He is descended from the original Ser Guztov so styled in 945.
