{ Ardishapur }

In 23052 AD, the family Heir was Arkon Ardishapur. Arkon was a pious and kind man who treated his subjects with compassion and humility. Arkon was particularly fond of a Holder named Arzad Hamri, who was beloved by his Starkmanir slaves. However, Arzad was becoming something of a problem for the Theology Council, as he had begun treating his slaves as almost-equals and eroding many of the long-held Holder-slave conventions.

The Theology Council eventually ordered Arkon to deal with the problem. Arkon traveled to Starkman Prime and investigated. He attempted to dissuade Arzad from his path, but found his friend intractable. Arkon presided over the trial and attempted to let Arzad free with his life, but special prosecutors from the Theology Council ensured that Arzad was put to death.

The execution eventually led the Starkmanir to rise up in rebellion three months later. One slave, Drupar Maak, struck Arkon Ardishapur down personally, killing the Heir with a Khuumak. The Starkmanir took control of the planet, killing their Amarr masters whenever they could catch them.

Arkon's heir, Idonis Ardishapur, was forced to put the rebellion down. Knowing that the life of an Heir could only be repaid for with an extreme, Idonis ordered the utter destruction of the planet and the genocide of the Starkmanir people...

Idonis ruled over the Ardishapur Family for the next several centuries, seeing it through contact with the Gallente and Caldari, the disastrous Amarr-Jove War, the Minmatar Rebellion, and the formation of CONCORD. He kept the fortunes of the family steady, rarely involving himself too heavily in Imperial politics. He only made major ripples once
in YC94, when Imperial scouts stumbled across Vo'Shun, a settlement on the ruins of Starkman Prime inhabited by outcasts from the Minmatar Republic. He issued a decree, which he called Khaedra's Law, forbidding anyone from harming the inhabitants of the planet.
