Blackadder Dynasty

The Blackadder Dynasty is a Noble Terran family that has existed since the days before the Age of Progress. While it is not known exactly when the Blackadder lineage established itself on the world of Ostenbrel, it is believed to have taken place during the Dark Age of Technology.

The Blackadder Dynasty plays an integral part in the corruption endemic to Ostenbrel, with the family often worming its way into the planets government on all levels and maintaining the power of oafish and idiotic Kings while advancing their personal agendas. The most successful member of the Blackadder line is without a doubt Edmund Blackadder XLIII, for by aligning himself with the then-undiscovered Primarch of the Steel Vipers Legion (Mehan Salter) who had crash-landed on the world of Ostenbrel, Blackadder was able to eliminate any and all competition under the guise of gang violence while simultaneously using his considerable political capital to pave the way for the Viper Gang to gain a monopoly over the black market.

As it stands, Edmund Blackadder XLIII is the only known member of his line who has not met an untimely demise or committed a heinous act of random and incriminating murder, as such Edmund stands as one of the wealthiest men in the Imperium from his vast inheritance and great alliance with one of the Primarchs, assuring that the family will continue to press on to glory and cash.
