History & Background / Dossier
The earliest known human-Sath contact occurred around 2350AD.
The Sath rapidly advanced their technological base, first becoming spacefaring and then developing their own jump capable starships utilising human technology. Their first interstellar jump was around 2425AD.
They continued to build and expand during the self-imposed isolation of the Second Confederation, when human activity in the rimward half of the Distant Fringe was at a low ebb. During this time they settled the worlds of the K’shek cluster and then the worlds of the Sha’a cluster. The Sath were desperately short of starships and progress was painfully slow. The furthest expansion of Sath explorers of the period was to the Pador-Aredian Cluster, where they made contact with The Haven.
The first starfaring Sath polities collapsed with the arrival of the Voyagers in 3730AD and the beginning of the Dark Age.
