Planetary History
Although Gorgon was too insignificant to merit being recorded on maps, the planet remained inhabited throughout the Succession Wars. With a population of some two hundred and fifty thousand people in 3075, the planet was ruled by Supreme Emperor Greg Kijas; Kijas was the owner of a Quasit MilitiaMech that he used to defend the population against pirates, although it's unclear if the planet received much - if any - attention from pirates, as it's only contribution to interstellar trade, politics or conflict was a single shipment of Gorgon's Breath spice per year, and it was considered beneath the notice of the vast majority of pirates.[25]
