House Zuma
House Zuma is a Navigator House and a member of the Navis Nobilite's Magisterial Houses, during the Great Crusade.[1a]
History
However due to the misrule of its Novator in the early years of the Great Crusade, its fortunes fell low. When the Novator's great nephew, Esuin Rigantis, took command[1b] he pledged House Zuma's service to the Imperial Fists[1a] in a gamble to recoup its finances and restore its greatness[1b]. His pledge, however, required the Novator to leave Zuma's estates on Terra in order to personally lead the contingent of House Zuma's Navigators that would serve aboard the Imperial Fists' warships. 20 years later, the Imperial Fists' Primarch, Dorn, commanded that Zuma's Navigators serve aboard the Legion's fleet that was taking part in the Night Crusade. They were given command of the Imperial Fists' other Navigators as well and it was a decision that could potentially catapult House Zuma into high status and swell its coffers. That is if the Crusade became a success for the Imperium.[1a]
