History & Background (Dossier)

The security services on Pretoria made many arrests, and attacks in time dwindled to virtually nothing, but it was thought that the Rachele Society might still have active cells on Pretoria.

Their eventual attempted resurgence, however -- a century later -- wasn't on Pretoria or indeed in Deneb Sector at all, but involved an attempt to seize mothballed ships at the Lishun Sector Depot. The eventual goal was to try and establish a new Vilani Imperium in Meshan Sector, but this grandiose plan never progressed past the initial ship-stealing effort, which was foiled.

• 1015: Zid Rachele escapes the prison world Exile (Deneb 1928)
• 1103: Zid Rachele and the Rachele Society surface again in Lishun, with a brief power play at the Dynam (Lishun 1219) Naval Depot. Rachele and his followers attempt the theft of several mothballed naval warships but are quickly defeated. Zid Rachele's vessel is destroyed in the battle. (See secret, below, for explanation)
