Business Description
Although it presents itself as a “colony support and commodities logistics provider,” Glories Under the Claw is in truth the premier outfitter of ihatei warbands, conquerors, rogue clans, and colonization militias.
This corporation offers an all-in-one conquest solution—from orbital to surface-level dominance.
Products & Services
- Ihatei Expansion Packages
- Pre-configured conquest fleets: scout ships, troop transports, and lightly armed picket ships
- Ready-to-deploy warbands, often trained in "autonomous expedition doctrine"
- Slave-taking kits, including collars, cargo restraints, and obedience modules
- Surface Infrastructure
- Modular mining platforms, prefab strongholds, defensive emplacements
- Kusyuforming tech to introduce Aslan crops, herd-beasts, and microclimates
- Atmospheric processors tuned for Yir’khtok grain and meat-chain growth cycles
- Trade with the Glorious Empire
- One of the only Aslan megacorps with open ties to the Glorious Empire, exchanging wargear, slaves, and food animals
- Buys up surplus prisoners, arms them, and ships them rimward as disposable auxiliaries
- Market Agitation & Conflict Exploitation
- Accused—often accurately—of inciting clan skirmishes and border wars
- Leverages instability to sell military logistics packages and expand supply routes
Home Port: Khtiyrlo (Trojan Reach 2834)
- A fortified freeport on the frontier of Aslan-controlled space
- Technically independent of the Tlaukhu, but functionally a private fortress-world
- Contains:
- Drydock arrays for retrofitting troop transports
- Training fields for ihatei warrior bands
- Slave processing and transport hubs
- Kusyuforming research labs and large domed biovats
Current Conflicts
- In direct economic warfare with:
- Iyarl Ahkha’Re (Company of Grandmotherly Kindness) in the coreward sectors
- Tyeyo Dust-Spice Importers in mixed-commodity frontier markets
- At risk of matronal censure from the Tlaukhu, but shielded by its semi-legal independent charter
- Target of imperial intelligence operations, especially near Tobia and Paal
Structure
Organizational Structure
- Supreme War-Claw (CEO): Ha’yereth Thualra, “The Collared Claw”
- A charismatic, one-eyed veteran of the Glorious Empire frontier wars
- Known for making personal conquest tours to oversee “client trials”
- Warband Client Division – Handles custom conquest orders

Culture
Corporate Culture
- Aggressive, pragmatic, and absolutely unbound by matronal tradition
- Most leadership comes from disinherited Yerlyaruiwo males, veterans, or ambitious free-claws who defied tradition
- Operates on profit, reputation, and fear
- Loyalty is enforced through blood-debt, hostage collateral, and private honor-courts backed by force
