Baknaelur

From Traveller Wiki - Science-Fiction Adventure in the Far future

Baknaelur are refugees from the Baknae Alliance found on several high population worlds in Pretoria and Magash subsectors. The Baknae Alliance's expansionistic tendencies were replicated by its refugees, most of whom were military or corsairs that somehow survived the trip across Tuglikki Sector despite Virus. This group dominates most Goenghoedz in these subsectors and has a penchant for applying slow but constant pressure in pursuit of its goals.

Baknaelur is also the name applied to the culture, cooking and artifacts imported by the refugees. Baknaelur cooking is pungent, and spicy if not painfully hot (the result of Vargr, like Terran canines, of not having pain receptors in their palates). The refugees are well known for their distinctive architecture and furniture, and one of the most common legitimate businesses are carpentry and cabinetry.
