Cometatus
The Veins of the New World
‘Following the Restoration era, more and more Imperial citizens ended up living semi-nomadic lives, constantly on the road between the isolated settlements, carrying goods and news. Soon, a new kind of profession emerged: the fearless rovers with a great nose for profit. Romanticized often by the common folk, a vagrant of a cometatus could in truth be as harmless as an infant, or become the most vile of criminal scum. Their significance in the revival of commerce is vastly overrated of course, but even so, they deserve a passing mention here.‘
