===Rogue Trader House Calavna=== Few Rogue Trader dynasties die as abruptly as House Calavna. The House was once the most militant Rogue Trader dynasty in the entire [[Setting:Tri-Sector|Cloudburst]] region, and possessed the attention and respect of multiple major Imperial institutions in their efforts to grind the primitive and Warp-tainted aliens of the Imperial borders to dust. Whole nations burned as the Calavna scions unleashed warheads and lances from high orbit, scorching worlds clean with the flame of the Emperor. Eventually, the Calavna forces managed to become major players in the Hapster Subsector’s political sphere, and came to be seen with jealous eyes by the Imperial Navy officials who guarded what was then the Imperial outer border. Whether that jealousy, or envy, at least, played a role in the fall of the House is unknown, but what is known is that the Navy was quick to respond to the fall of the House. As the Rogue Trader head of the family, Roger Calavna, was aboard his ship ''Lucre William'', in orbit over Hapster, nine ''Infidel'' raiders never locally seen before or since abruptly attacked the system, and made a beeline for the vessel. To the shock of the system, the Cruiser was almost immediately captured by the force of black-clad pirates, armed with a motley assortment and human and alien weapons, which swept aboard. Roger Calavna himself survived only by shoving himself into a messenger pod and ejecting it in the atmosphere of the world below. When rescue teams dug him out, most of his bones were broken, but his augmetic organs had kept him alive. Learning that his Warrant had been on the Cruiser at the time, he swore undying revenge against the pirates, which he did not live long enough to execute. House Calavna bears the unwelcome distinction of being the last of the Hapster Rogue Trader families to be destroyed prior to the creation of the Cloudburst Sector as a formal body of government.
