Rape of Trin

In 1139, Trin was attacked by a Vampire ship, the former Ziru Sirkaan battleship Kishkii, which destroyed much of the orbital facilities, then bombarded the surface for several hours before crashing itself into the surface.

Description (Specifications)

Kishkii was the sole survivor of a vampire fleet of 60 to 80 ships, which seemed to have crossed 4 sectors with the sole aim of destroying Trin.

• 3 billion people died in the initial assault, however, 10 million more died from the effects of radiation. With all surface and orbital infrastructure decimated, the world could not maintain its surviving population, and many of its citizens where forced to emigrate.
• The subsector was renamed Trin's Shroud from Trin's Veil as a result of this attack.

History & Background (Dossier)
