History & Background (Dossier)

Igla is governed by the Church of Preservation, which emphasises that resources are finite and places restrictions on the use of technology. These doctrines are a holdover from the struggles of the Long Night.

  • Adherents to the religion -- including all native-born Iglans by church decree -- thank God for the continued operation of technological devices with daily prayers.

World Culture

Iglan society has multiple castes, each of which has access to different levels of technology.

World Military

The Order of Fusion are the guardians of Igla. The order pledges fealty to the Imperial Army and is known for discipline, selflessness, and overzealous maintenance practices.
