Traveller - Behind the Claw

Deneb is bordered by the Vargr Expanses and the Great Rift, and has traditionally seen fierce rivalry between its powerful dukes. A long history of compromise and temporary agreements has created a fragmented political situation, ready to be exploited by those with the wit and will... and there is always the threat of privateers across the border.

The Spinward Marches is a border region, wedged between the Aslan Hierate and the Zhodani Consulate, with the tumultuous politics of Deneb at its back. It is the gateway to the imperial borders and the crossroads of internal and external politics. Opportunities for adventure abound between the border worlds of the Marches and the commercial centers of Deneb. Far from the Imperial core, fortune awaits the bold and disaster awaits the unwary traveler.
