Ras Hafun has little to
recommend it. A small ‘city’ of a few thousand souls, many of them slaves,
living under the rule of Caliph Omar Mukhtar. From what you have gathered the
Caliph is no better or worse than any of the many other rulers on Astrokaszy,
which makes him a cruel and tyrannical despot. You have met him a couple of
times, but Branka and Jared always act as go-betweens. The city itself sits on
a virtually defunct ruby mine, totally reliant on man-power rather than
machines and has limited industrial capacity. The industry mostly aligned with
the military needs of the Caliph.
The Caliph lives in
relative luxury within a walled compound, surrounded by heavily armed guards.
He has no BattleMech forces of his own (unlike some other Caliph’s), so has
come to rely on the Blackshields, an awkward position to be in for a man that
rules through fear and brute strength.
