Each member of the Koch family is of noble blood. They hold the gift of reign from their imperial forefathers. They are born leaders, naturally good in politics and known for being ruthless towards their opponents. The Kochs still maintain and pass down their proud traditions of serving the military to their offspring. Even if the outer appearance is deceiving, some members still follow the old codex of the imperial family and pursue the goal of restoring the political influence the family had before the fall of the empire, with all necessary means.

Members


The Koch family has its roots on earth, originally formed in ancient times by germanic aristocrats or merchants. It is believed the family has nordic forefathers, but not more can be said.

With the arrival in Sirius and the colonisation of Planet New Berlin, the German military, (including members of the Koch family), were put into power and began to establish a war-time government. During this time, the family played a significant role in Rheinland's politics and defence affairs. The later appointed Kaiser, (also a member of the Koch family), ensured the reign will stay within his imperial family. The Kochs were known as one of the most powerful elitist families since this date. It was forbidden to marry the member of a family with roots in a foreign house, to not pollute the own bloodline. Marriage was restricted to rich families with political or military influence in Rheinland. Through this method, the Kochs have guaranteed their grip on crucial governmental organs to strengthen the own position of power for about five centuries. With the end of the Rheinland empire however, the Kochs began to loose their political power almost entirely. So dies the gloss, but also the dreams of the imperial family overnight.


The family has suffered a lot through the Nomad War. Many officers within the military were possessed by Nomads during this time. Also members of the Koch family were deeply affected arguably because of their executive positions within the Rheinland military and the government. Most of them disappeared without a trace or died during the conflict. Only few of said infested members have survived the collapse of the mindshare.


Each member of the Koch family is of noble blood. They hold the gift of reign from their imperial forefathers. They are born leaders, naturally good in politics and known for being ruthless towards their opponents. The Kochs still maintain and pass down their proud traditions of serving the military to their offspring. Even if the outer appearance is deceiving, some members still follow the old codex of the imperial family and pursue the goal of restoring the political influence the family had before the fall of the empire, with all necessary means.
