Faction from the DLC for the game RimWorld.
The Empire is a faction of refugees from the planet Sophiamunda, survivors of a great calamity that destroyed their home. They fled to the rimworlds in the remnants of their fleet. The narrative is set on a rimworld where Guest has established a settlement. The Empire looks down upon Guest's settlement, creating a tense political dynamic. They will refuse to trade or engage with Guest unless Guest can acquire an appropriate royal title, forcing Guest to navigate their complex and hierarchical society to gain favor or power.
The Empire is a powerful, ultratech society with a culture founded on a strict code of honor, a rigid class system, and enforced social stasis. They are technologically advanced, possessing powerful ships and equipment despite their refugee status. They are characterized by their arrogance and exclusivity, looking down on outsiders and refusing to interact with those they deem to be of a lower class.
