Hinterlands Part 2 After the HPG Blackout of 3132, the Inner Sphere could no longer rely on Comstar's Hyper Pulse network for interstellar communication. The Dark Age of the Inner Sphere had begun. News at the Speed of Jump The Blackout threw interstellar communication back to courier routes of Jumpships spreading messages by relay. In the 3130s, Interstellar states scrambled to gather enough JumpShips to develop routes and networks.

The Hinterlands: Part 1 Following the decimation of Clan Jade Falcon on Terra in 3151, what remained of the clan, dezgra, solahma, freebirths and provisional garrison forces, were left leaderless while the survivors of Khan Malvina Hazen's War to conquer Terra remained stranded until the IlClan permits them to leave. The vulnerability of the Falcons left behind was much worse than the similar circumstances a century prior in…

Eldrytch Suns - Part 6 The Hoaawli are warrior societies/ monasteries in Aslan society that teach meditation, martial arts, and spiritual enlightenment. They are rare, and scattered throughout the Hierate and in general, settled Aslan space outside the Hierate. In the Supplement Clans of the Aslan, on page 38 three of the larger Hoaawli are mentioned. But these three are, of course, not the only such institutions.

Eldrytch Suns Part 5 The Duncinae Cartel is a polity trailing of Zazarah in the Ea Subsector. As a polity, it only governs seven systems, but among those systems are six Agricultural, one Garden and two Rich systems. The Cartel is, to say the least, very economically prosperous. It's centralized position in Reaver's Deep makes the Cartel a breadbasket for the entire region.

Eldrytch Suns Part IV Kath (Reaver's Deep, Ea Subsector, Parsec# 1428) B764994-C HiHt named Kingston system in The Deep and the Dark has a long history of being an independent system. It's location, so close to the center parsec of the entire Sector, and nearly central to the whole region outside the Imperium, Confederation, and Hierate in both Reaver's Deep and the coreward subsectors of the Dark Nebula Sectors, make it convenient for the population of the "Buffer Region" to travel to the system.

Eldrytch Suns Part 3 In the Buffer of Reaver's Deep, starships are old, small, and (when compared to the Imperium, the Confederation, or the Hierate) archaic. The systems in the sector do not have the resources, nor the facilities to build the multi-kiloton heavy freighters and warships. Because of the Rebellion War, the bordering Imperial, Confederation and Hierate sectors have withdrawn their major fleets towards their core systems.

Eldrytch Suns Part 2 As mentioned in the article Hard Times in Reaver's Deep, the Eldrytch Suns campaign takes place in a Planetary Romance setting. A big change is that the Maneuver Drive isn't used. Other Gravitic technologies still exist (like the antigravity technology that make Grav-Vehicles function) at TL 11 or 12. This has a follow-on effect that space and starships are built on non-gravity hulls when designed below TL 12.

A very brief overview of Aslan Culture in the Hierate Aslan society is heavily gendered. Female Aslan are born 3 times more often than male Aslan. As the Aslan developed their sentience, the gender roles became reflected in their societal development. Male Aslan led the pride, claimed and defended hunting territory, and female Aslan hunted, developed tools, and later on, agriculture.
