Hey y’all! I’m still traveling for a few more days, but posts will be coming again soon. But, in the meantime, there’s an idea I’ve been considering.
So, Sidra here is part of the Velair Mercantile House, one of the Svivreni trade houses that make up the Svivren Trade Alliance. There’s a ton of interesting things we could do with that, especially if we lean into the merchant-republic aspect that is hinted at in the very small amount of Legends information. Maybe taking it a sort of Venice direction?
OR!
We could make a new planet along the Five Veils Route to sort of be like a…. Genoa to Svivren’s Venice. That way we could work from scratch to make something new and original. Maybe something like.. feudal-mercantile?
Edit/update: So, I’m thinking something less modern corporate in style and more medieval/early modern mercantilism, if that makes sense. Family crests, heraldry, houses and cadet branches. Sort of Dune ish.
