For all you budding rouges and traders across the stars it’s time to pull out your paint brushes and take on the most flamboyant, and sometimes ferral, Antarean races – the Freeborn!
The Freeborn – The Great houses of the Freeborn are space-going societies that live upon huge spacecraft, plying the Antarean trade routes and exploring the fringes of the nexus. Proud and independent, the Freeborn are the greatest mercantile power in all Antarean space, purveyors of goods, technology and armed forces to those willing to pay their price!
Trade brings luxuries and wealth, but it also means new technologies. Combined with far reaching exploration the Freeborn often have a far greater choice of weaponry at their disposal than many other races in Antares.
The Magris particularly are a good example. Forming the core of the Freeborn soldiers for hire with House Oszon. Feral and savage, living in almost stone age cultures on their home planet Mhagris, the majority of the population were only too glad to exchange the primitive conditions for a life of service on the battlefields of the Antarean universe.
