Vadun

The Innermost House of Trantor

Populations: Ortus and Demarch

Heartlands: Inner Babylonian Shells of Trantor

Common Polities: Vadunite Dominions

Far down Trantor’s Babylonian shells, Vadun lies in command of the Deep. Where there is neither light nor heat but the planet’s beating heart, the innermost house delves for libraries of untold knowledge, for resources and works of forgotten ages, and even peoples long abandoned to reclaim.

Vadun does not venture beyond the inner shells of Trantor. But that homeworld alone is the greatest, most populous relic of all Gondwana, and thus Vadun’s domains are fabled in their reach and riches. Its interests and purpose are enshrouded in an impenetrable bureaucracy that governs every action of the Innermost House and its kin.
