Sansha's Nation Commander

During the Sansha invasion of YC 112, over 15,000,000 civilians were abducted from their planetary homes. Some of these people were turned from ordinary citizens into capsuleers, re-appearing only days later in some of the largest and most powerful ships in the cluster. Those who did not become capsuleers were not left behind, however.

Corpses recovered from invading vessels suggested that everyone, regardless of their former life, was granted cloning access. Many would become crew members and engineers aboard the giant capsuleer-piloted vessels, but others chose, or were given, a different role in Nation.

Some abductees were enhanced in yet other ways. Farmers and librarians alike became military leaders with the acuity and intelligence to rival that of the empire's top brass.
