Beginnings Built in 692 A.S., four years after the Okinawa system was discovered by Blood Dragon scouts, the Sendai Research Complex was originally designed to house weapon and ship research for the Blood Dragons in an uncharted system, to maintain security and secrecy. Sendai focuses mainly on reverse engineering and adapting smuggled and stolen technologies, acquired by various means.
Ships and Weapons Further improving on existing designs, the scientist from Sendai have brought forth, with help from allies, several technological wonders; such as the Nodachi and the Kagutsuchi. By reverse engineering captured Kusari antimatter weapons technology. Widely known as of the most devastating anti-capital weapons in Sirius, this cannon is capable of dealing heavy antimatter damage at long range.
Alien biology reserach The alien biology division aboard Sendai is closing its half a century existence mark. It has always served as one of the few opportunities that can offer an alternative to a life of crime. Performing extensive analysis of the artifacts captured from the Hogosha, xenobiologist are constantly on the look-out for new discoveries.
Niiza surveys When the first Blood Dragon explorers arrived in the system, they also surveyed the planet that lies in the Green Star's Corona. The initial survey was followed by a small number of Blood Dragon scientific landings. Similarly with the massive influx of scientist that occurred due to Kusari's Artifact ban, plenty of scientist that are aware of Niiza existence are trying to survey it.
State of the art defensive system The Cofu Dust Cloud is in fact a cloud of nebulous gases that restricts sensor usage to short ranges. While the fine particles of dust that pervade the cloud are responsible for the scanner malfunctions and few ships venture within to explore, Sendai is constantly protected by a heavy array of weapons platforms. The numerous fighter squadrons that constantly comb the area for threats, and which will hunt down any ship lucky enough not to be shot down by the automatic defenses.
Minamoto Clan The research division of the Blood Dragons is currently run by the Minamoto Clan, ruled by Daimyo Kamakura Minamoto. Although the Daimyo has never been seen in the open, it is rumored that he is a close friend of the Shogun. A proxy has been appointed, the scientist overseeing the R&D on Sendai, Prof. Nerva Regis, a long-time ally of the Blood Dragons.
