Misadin

The Merchant House of Trantor

Populations: Ortus

Heartlands: Gilded Contorworlds and Bazaar Orbitals

Common Polities: Hansa States and Syndicates

The mercantile republics of Misadin lie at the heart of Trantor’s imperial realms, controlling worlds along the Ardent Range and its vibrant trading routes. Born from guilds and caravaneers, Misadin was long among the lesser houses, and preserves to this day traditions of merit and opportunism above all. Its lords are not dynasties of dynasties, but minted on the floors of bazaars and Kontor houses.

For all its material riches, Misadin’s true power, however, stems from trading in secrets. It is said Misadin speaks and hears every truth and lie in Trantor’s halls of power.
