The Nomad war was humanity's first series of encounters with the Slomon K'hara, better known as the Nomads. With engagements taking place all over the sector, it was an entirely unconventional war. The Nomads attempted to infiltrate humanity and cause conflict between the houses. The plan nearly worked, but was halted by the actions of a group known as The Order as well as several individuals associated with them. The Nomads were by no means wiped out, and it appears that the "Nomad War" may have only been the first battle in a coming conflict.

Synopsis

It is generally agreed that the first open action of the Nomad war was the destruction of Freeport 7 by the Nomads. While originally labelled as an attack by The Order. The assault was in fact an attempt by the Nomads to regain a Daam K'vosh artifact. At the same time, the Nomads were continuing to infect high-ranking military and political leaders, particularly in Rheinland.

The Missing artifact came into the possession of Edison Trent a freelancer who had been on Freeport 7. Eventually, he was detected by infected members of the Liberty Navy and LSF and declared a wanted man. Fleeing to Bretonia with his companions, he sought out the elusive scientist Roland Quintaine.

By this time, the Rheinland Military was almost entirely under Nomad control and had begun to launch more and more daring raids. While meeting on Planet Sprague, Trent and his colleagues were attacked by a Rheinland Battlegroup. Fleeing, they eventually met up with Quintaine in the Dublin system. Under pressure from increasing attacks, the group eventually fled to Kusari, the native house of Jun'ko Zane, one of Tren's companions.

In Kusari, Trent sought out the Proteus Tome. An artifact discovered in Kusari recently, Kendra Sinclair and Quintaine required access to it to fully analyze Trent's artifact.
