History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Hammermium is a charismatic dictatorship and in 1120 the planet was ruled by Count Jon Kantte. Technically, the Count was also head of Hammermium Corporation, a mercantile concern that profits from the very large volume of traffic coming into the Marches via Trin (Spinward Marches 3235). The corporation owns Hammermium's starport, as well as a private fleet of custom ships. Hammermium Corporation also subsidizes a few merchant vessels operating elsewhere in the Marches.
