Description
Verthandi also known as Norn II, is the second of three worlds that orbit a K2 class sun in the Norn system. Verthandi itself has one large moon designated Verthandi Alpha that has a naval base on it.
Geography
The capital of Verthandi is Regis. Regisport, the planetary DropShip landing facility, is located ten kilometres north of the city. [1] The Silvan Basin, an enormous area within an asteroid crater, lies to the north of Regis.[2]
History
Jihad
Verthandi was conquered by Clan Wolf during Operation Revival, only to then be conquered again during the Jihad; Clan Hell's Horses launched an invasion of the Clan Wolf holdings in the Inner Sphere in early 3071, acquiring holdings for their own relocation to Spheroid space. Verthandi was seized by the Hell's Horses between the 7th and 14th of April 3071.[3]
Dark Age
After a successful popular uprising spearheaded by the Gray Death Legion, surviving Kuritan forces fell back to Regisport in disarray.[4]
Regisport's repair yards were sufficient to make the Gray Death's DropShip, the Phobos, flightworthy enough to leave Verthandi at the conclusion of the mercenary command's contract.[5]
