House Raix
House Raix
Ancient, proud and formal; clings to (their view of) the Empire's traditions and formalities and ritual. A shell of a House, with no (or no known) economic or military might to bring to bear and no holdings or posts worthy of note; nonetheless, commands an unusually high degree of respect among other houses.

House Aspects
(Two things of note about the House that can be used to benefit/penalize character actions wrt that house -- this could be unusual talents possessed by the members, a particular House ethos, some standard-issue piece of equipment, etc)
Some possibilities:
- Sense of Superiority: Their manner is so self-assured and/or condescending that everyone tends to overestimate them, which can be either good or bad, depending on context.
- Centuries of Meticulously Thorough Records: Obvious implications for historical research.
- Know Where All the Bodies are Buried: The longer a House exists, the more guilty secrets it has that House Raix found out about somehow.
- Resistant to Change: Members are unaffected by nearly all forms of mind-altering technology, propaganda, and reasoned argument.
House Background
(More about the House, history, governance, name of home planet or planets, any special assets, etc)
Characters of Interest
(list characters in the house, players or non-players. players should have a more complete skillset listed, but you don't have to decide now who is who. it would be useful to know the names of important/significant people in the house even if they aren't present on the colony -- eg, the head of the house)
The Colony
- What sort of planet is the colony on and what is its name, what's the terrain like, what resources are found on the planet
- What does the colony do (ie, why is there a colony here?) Was it for resource-gathering (farming, mining, etc), industry, military training, or what? ('Research' and 'tourism' are probably stylistically bad choices, so I wouldn't pick those as the primary thing)
- What nearby planets might be of interest?
