House Eridanus Faction Turn Fluff

This is a catalog of House Eridanus' mechanical actions and the corresponding fictional meaning of those actions within the narrative space of Far Verona.

# Assets

## Demnoph

- House Eridanus’ Mechanical Homeworld
- House Eridanus controls the Planetary Government

#### Demnophi Base of Influence

Planetary Government of Demnoph, bureaucratic hub and homeworld of House Eridanus. Represents Eridanii control over the largest manufacturing hub of the sector.

* Inherited from ACRE on Turn 9 during the Merger

#### Commodities Broker I

These Brokers represent the Upper Echelon of the Actii Mercantil. The Committee led by the Transactos is responsible for leading the Actii in regulating the industrial sector of Acheron Rho. A large number of House Eridanus Quant(esses) makes use of both the DELPHI and ENIGMA systems to help the Committee to optimise industrial trade regulations, and squeeze every possible bit of profit from Acheron Rho’s economy.

* Inherited from ACRE on Turn 9 during the Merger, was originally used in the STO attack on Orpheus.
* Generated Discounts on Turn 15 for Pretech Infantry I, and on Turn 16 for Pretech Infantry II. On Turn 17 generated a discount for Commodities Broker IV and on Turn 19 generated a discount for Pretech Manufactory III

#### Pretech Infantry II

* **La Rapidità della Mente Sconfigge il Male** are a genetically and cybernetically enhanced G.E.T.I. unit. They are led by **Condottieri Eridanus Vasudha Sima** and are tasked with defending The Ziggurat on Demnoph. These troops were, however, first introduced in a viral marketing stunt for the popular Fizzy Cheese brand as *Zwitterion Zealots*: a team of elite actuarial payment enforcers.
* Built via the PTL on Demnoph Turn 17.

#### Pretech Logistics

Before the audit, the A.C.R.E. corporation failed to dismantle many military research facilities and the dangerous pretech cache on Agassiz 7. House Eridanus has managed to augment these existing assets with salvage programs through the Confederation of the Upright Vagrant to produce advanced arms and equipment for fighting forces of the Empire.

* + Inherited from ACRE turn 9 during the Audit. Has built Security Personnel and two sets of Pretech Infantry.

#### Strike Fleet

***WIP***

* Built via Pretech Logistics on Demnoph Turn 19

#### Transit Web

Utilizing A.C.R.E.'s old Project T.A.H.I.T.I logistical software, Imperial ship databases, and DELPHI hardware, House Eridanus helped House Pyxis and House Fornax develop a complex trade and transportation network to optimize the seamless movement of assets and equipment across the sector. This system is called HADES and maximizes the reliability of mass cargo shipments in an age of unstable navigation.

* Inherited from ACRE turn 9. Regularly used to move assets around. Crucial in the Seizure of Yakiyah.

## Tiber

- Tiber is the ancestral Homeworld of House Eridanus
- While many houses own properties on this Jungle World, House Eridanus has been the planetary Government since the founding of the Empire.

#### Tiberian Base of Influence

A reestablishment of formal and mechanical influence over, what is in Eridanii eyes, the Jewel of the Empire, Tiber. The auditing of A.C.R.E left the House Eridanus eXchange in an unstable state and was not fully activated until proper documentation was set from The Ziggurat to the Tyrian HEX servers.

* Re-established mechanically Turn 11 by Party Machine I; formerly under the umbrella of the Houses minor.

#### Commodities Broker IV

These traders represent the stock market of the House Eridanus Exchange on Tiber. The HEX allows investors from all over the sector to come together on Tiber to trade stocks and earn credits. House Eridanus companies often use stock trading to raise the funds necessary for their endeavors.

* Purchased Locally on Turn 18.
* Turn 19 generated a discount for Pretech Manufactory III

#### Extended Theatre

House Eridanus approached House Crux to acquire appropriate legal permits to produce and ship weaponry as ACRE had previously been given, but which had fallen into legal limbo with the acquisition of the corporation by House Eridanus. Additionally, Eridanus purchased the (Formerly HCS) HES To All, Let Justice Be Dealt, No Matter How Far Afield Fled, Even to Deserts the Other-side of Eternity and Back (Lovingly, Just Deserts), a carrier-class vessel that Eridanus felt would be invaluable in meeting and maintaining the quotas ACRE had previously managed.

* Transferred from House Crux during the 14.5 Interim.

#### Party Machine I

This political institution represents the Triumvirate election political coalitions. Both the Momentum of Imperial Revitalisation and the Reclamation of Golden Prosperity have ample resources on Tiber that they can put to use if one can get the upper hand over the other. The coalitions have great sway over the behavior of the Triumvirate and can use that influence to affect other aspects of both House politics and Imperial politics at large.

* An originally CHR asset inherited from ACRE Turn 9 during the Merger.

#### Pretech Manufactory I

A starliner co-owned by the two houses, it provides top-of-the-line travel accommodations to visitors of the Alvero system. The HES The Gardens of Ebony are Drowning in Vice (also registered as HRS A Ship for Touring Twin Planets of Great Beauty Sweet Young Flowers Bloom) is an intra-system cruise ship outfitted with all manner of pretech entertainment modules and attractions for passengers. It currently berths over Tiber but its route regularly connects the two populous planets of the Alvero system and travels among the asteroid belts, gas giants, and various planetoids. If lucky passengers get to watch a salute from the ship’s mighty guns as they, like a firework show, rip apart and explode wreckless pirates who come too close in (304) Udzha.

* Houses Minor asset transferred to House Eridanus during the Turn 11.5 Interim on Aomori. Moved to Tiber Turn 1. Has generated 4 FacCreds to date.

## Yakiyah

- Yakiyah is the former Homeworld of the UPC
- House Eridanus is the current Planetary Government.

#### Commodities Broker II

These traders and brokers are representing the interest of Acti Mehar on the planet Yakiyah. Through the use of trade regulations and economic policy they helped rearrange the Yakiyan economy after The fall of the UPC. In the following months, Acti Mehar was instrumental in executing Operation Huddled Masses to put the Yakiyan government under Eridanii control. The trade brokers keep a close eye on the Yakiyan economy to ensure sufficient food exports to the Imperial Core.

* Inherited from ACRE on Turn 9 during the Merger, was originally used in the STO attack on Orpheus. Crucial in the Seizure of Yakiyah, they brought the people in line.
	+ Generated Discounts on Turn 15 for Pretech Infantry I, and on Turn 16 for Pretech Infantry II. On Turn 17 generated a discount for Commodities Broker IV and on Turn 19 generated a discount for Pretech Manufactory III

#### Party Machine III

This Party Machine represents the combined political and bureaucratic reach of the Agora, a parliament of noble landowners who have legislative powers on Yakiyah. Although technically in a supporting role to the Rector of Yakiyah, the political parties of the Agora are used to forge alliances between the Yakiyan nobility. This system encourages like minded nobles to come together and pool their resources, making them a formidable political block.

* A SERAPH built asset transferred to House Eridanus during the 15.5 interim and moved to Demnoph Turn 16. On Turn 20 it was moved to Yakiyah.

#### Pretech Manufactory II

An enormous pre-tech orbital construction platform called the *Silent Acquisition*. The facility is co-owned between a SERAPH aligned infrastructure company, and an Acti Edif construction conglomerate. The Silent Acquisition was once used by A.C.R.E. to develop the surface of Demnoph, but it was declared unusable a century ago. Recovered from the orbit of Demnoph after the Eridanus takeover, it was made operational through the expertise of Triangulum engineers on Lovelace. The Silent Acquisition is the primary component of **Operation Golden Door** and currently sits in geostationary orbit over Yakiyah's Hearth Valley. There it is facilitating the construction of **Ronaseën**, a new capital city that will provide hope and economic revitalization to the planet.

* Built on Lovelace on Turn 13, it was subsequently moved to Yakiyah to begin the seizure of that planet. Has generated 5 FacCreds to date.

## Cabina

#### Party Machine II

House Eridanus noticing the League of Frontier Towns on Cabina and the public proliferation of *Coffea cabina* by the eccentric Eridanus Ankhayat family, sought to both invest in and regulate the new cash crop on Cabina. This strain of coffee bean posed a potential threat to the *de facto* Tiberian coffee monopoly in the core. Whatever was happening on Cabina would need more direct attention and the stubborn Ankhayat Family would need to reach certain compromises with the Actii Coffea.

* A CHR asset transferred by SERAPH during the 13.5 Interim.

## Hallger

#### Party Machine V

Bureacratic and pysical infrastructure on Hallger, set up by House Eridanus transport expert from the Transport Union Gateway (TUG) of Tiber. TUG experts are on Hallger to see the logistical potential of the various transport systems and populations brought together to create a replication of the success of the Tiber system. From basic necessities such as keeping accurate census records, to the more difficult work of tracking and attempting to schedule various landship and underground colonies, the TUG experts have already begun coordinating with the most willing of landships to coordinate both for survival and scavenging purposes. TUG works together with local governments, individual settlements, and the SERAPH appointed Grand Templar and Viceregent.

* A CHR asset used in SERAPH’s seizure of Hallger transferred during the 19.5 Interim.

## Hong Lu

#### Party Machine IV

WIP

* A House Triangulum asset used in the Democratic Mandates expansion onto Hong Lu. Transferred from Triangulum during the 17.5 interim.

## Lovelace

#### Lovelacian Base of Influence

**The Mojica Institute of Genetic Advancement** is a genealogy institution shared between the Houses Eridanus and Triangulum on Habitat One. It was built to give both Houses a place to continue the genetic research that used to be the responsibility of House Cygnus before its destruction during the War Against the Artificials. The Mojica Institute is located in the shared laboratory area of Habitat One. It contains a large seed vault, a House Eridanus financial office, and laboratory space for Triangulum Geneticists and Eridanus research personnel.

* Established by Commodities Broker III on Turn 12. Pretech Manufactory II and Pretech Manufactory III purchased here on turn 13 and 20 respectively.

#### Commodities Broker III

Eridanii traders on Lovelace buy and sell intellectual properties to House Triangulum. A lot of credits exchange hands between Eridanus Companies and Triangulum Shōjis, but almost no physical product is ever exchanged. This is primarily a marketplace of investment and production rights. Nevertheless, House Eridanus makes a substantial amount of money through applying these copyrights and IP across their industries.

* Refit from formerly ACRE Pretech Researchers turn 10. Moved to Lovelace turn 12 and established the Base of Influence.
	+ Generated Discounts on Turn 15 for Pretech Infantry I, and on Turn 16 for Pretech Infantry II. On Turn 17 generated a discount for Commodities Broker IV and on Turn 19 generated a discount for Pretech Manufactory III.

#### Pretech Manufactory

WIP

* Purchased on Turn 20 locally.

#### Security Personnel

**Servizi di Sicurezza Prioritari - Azienda Militare** are security protecting valuable data housed in the *Mojica Institute*. Led by Condottieri Eridanus Durante Jasvinder (They/Them), the SSP-Am consists of small-arms security guards and is also capable of helping local police forces on Habitat One.

* Built via the PTL on Demnoph Turn 15, moved to Lovelace Turn 17.

## Non-Active Assets

* Covert Transit Net - Confederation of the Upright Vagrant
	+ Only briefly under Eridanii control, this Confederation of the Upright Vagrant asset was moved from Lovelace to Navette with the Transit Web
* Pretech Infantry I - House Crux
	+ A pretech cache of military equipment and peacekeeping drones salvaged from Agassiz 7. The drones were restored to the specification of House Crux, and financed by the Imperial House to bolster Imperial law enforcement. The equipment was repaired by Eridanus weapons manufacturers on Demnoph, and temporarily loaned to Condottieri for the purpose of field testing on Yakiyah during Operation Tempest-Tossed. Afterwards, the pretech drones were transferred to House Crux's Judicial Enforcement Services **Mesiah’s Will Advanced Peacekeeping Division**.
* Zealots - House Fornax
	+ Little is known about the fanatics that have since left the orbit of Eridanii control.

# Turns

## Turns 0 to 9

Turn 0 to 9 House Eridanus was a part of the Houses Minor faction. For actions taken by the Houses Minor see here.

### Mutual Expertise Exchange

Prior to the merger with A.C.R.E. on turn 9, the downturn in the economy with the loss of a synthetic labor force during the War Against the Artificials as well as with the lack of access to skilled A.C.R.E. personnel and technicians as the Conflict of 3200 raged on, the Offices of the Transactos sought a solution on the planet Yakiyah. Tiber's export market of luxury agricultural goods—such as tea, coffee, tobacco, fruits, and brandy—was hard hit by labor shortages and broken equipment. The newly formed Yakiyahn Mandate, a group of serfs who rebelled against the traitorous A.C.R.E. corporation and had formed a provisional government, had the expertise that House Eridanus needed to fix the various A.C.R.E. tractors, harvesters, and cultivators that had begun to break down and shut off without licensed mechanics. In turn, the Yakiyahn Mandate sought financial advice for the creation of a bank and financial service to effectively control the revolutionary populace.

A contract, **The Mutual Expertise Exchange**, was drafted and agreed upon by the Office of the Transactos and the Ministry of Finance, Trade and Economic Cooperation dictating the safety of thirty individuals from both House Eridanus and the Yakiyahn Mandate to aid the revitalization of the economies.

The expertise of a Triffox, Quant, and Educatos from Eridanus helped the provisional government create a banking system, **The Yakiyan Central Bank**. On Tiber, much of the tobacco industry was brought back online by mandate mechanics, but the eventual audit and acquisition of A.C.R.E. assets halted the need for the Yakiyahns on Tiber. Quietly the contracts were renewed to the full three months until the complete unveiling of the Yakiayn Central Bank and eventual collapse of the revolutionary influences over the YMPP. The three Eridanii and their staff (*there is considerable debate as to how many of the staff actually returned from the trip to Yakiayh*), as well as the thirty Yakiyan laborers, returned safely to their home planets.

## 11.5 Interim

* With the leak of a FORT Incident report, House Eridanus is directly linked to the destruction of *HES Don't Spend it All in One Place*. Two Eridanii Viscounts are alleged to have perished in the explosions resulting from failed ship-tender mounts and the *HFS Step in Time* warping inside the hull of the *HES All in One Place*. This and several other incidents revealed in the same month would later be attributed to early testing of HADES.

*“The Prime Daily has received an incident report surrounding the Imperial Prime Incident from an anonymous source. While "FORT" is an unknown organization, this further proves the involvement of Houses Fornax, Eridanus and Pyxis in the explosive incident.”*
The Prime Daily's coverage

* The Trilliant Ring transferred 20 FacCreds
* The Houses Minor transferred 9 FacCreds

* The PRISM Network transferred 5 FacCreds
* The Prime Daily once again reports on Eridanus related news, with explosive accounts about market failures across the sector following the fall of A.C.R.E.

*“Following a sharp economic downturn at the end of last month, the Noble House Eridanus has closed down the House Eridanus eXchange marketplace, freezing all trading accounts and stock values as they stand. Industry experts speculate that the drastic fall of stock values very well may be attributed to the wave of dismantling of former A.C.R.E. departments. This firesale of industrial assets to various noble buyers seems to have flooded the market with new businesses lacking the operational expertise to keep up with the vacuum caused by the death of the economic monolith.”*
H.E.X. Markets Shut Down for Only the Third Time in Imperial History! Fall of ACRE to Blame?
* House Eridanus received **Pretech Manufactory I** on Aomori from The Houses Minor - The *HRS A Ship for Touring Twin Planets of Great Beauty Sweet Young Flowers Bloom* (also registered as the *HES The Gardens of Ebony are Drowning in Vice*) is a luxury casino ship that provides intra-system tours of Alvero.

Yakiyah gains the World Tag: **Mega Farms**
Most planets have a way to produce food to feed at least the local population, but this one takes agriculture to the extreme.
