==History==
The House's [[Knight World|Homeworld]] is the [[Ironhold ProtectorateKamidar]] and they are currently was ruled by [[High Queen]] [[Orlah Y'Kamidar]]{{Fn|1a}}. Kamidar's colors are white and gold{{Fn|1d}} and its Knights traditionally carry an [[Oighen]] [[power sword]], which they even take with them even as they ride into war.{{Fn|1c}} During the [[Noctis Aeterna]], House Kamidar lost contact with the Imperium and became autonomous within the [[Ironhold Protectorate]], though a [[Torchbearer Fleet]] of the [[Indomitus Crusade]] eventually arrived.{{Fn|2a}}
During the [[Indomitus Crusade]], House Kamidar's [[Knight]]s took part in the [[Battle of Gathalamor]], as part of the initial forces sent to defend the [[Shrine World]]{{Fn|1b}}. This was done by [[High Queen]] [[Orlah Y'Kamidar|Orlah]], in order to honor the oath her grandfather, and past [[High King]], [[Laughlen Y'Kamidar]] had sworn that Kamidar's Knights would always protect [[Gathalamor]]. As heir-apparent, Princess [[Jessivayne Y'Kamidar]] was given command of this force by her mother{{Fn|1c}}, which consisted of five full lances of Knights to defend the [[Shrine World]] with{{Fn|1b}}. After the battle was won, Kamidar was honored for their sacrifice by having the [[Ironhold Protectorate]] turned into one of the Crusade's [[Hub-Fortress]]es.{{Fn|1a}}
Several years into the Crusade, [[Battle Group Praxis]] of [[Indomitus Crusade Fleet Primus]] arrived at Kalimdar to collect [[Tithe]]s and resources for their ongoing campaign.{{Fn|2a}} The heavy-handedness of the Imperials combined with [[Chaos]] machinations eventually caused the two sides to come to blows{{Fn|2b}}, but following the death of Queen [[Orlah Y'Kamidar]] at the hands of one of the [[Hand of Abaddon|Hands of Abaddon]] and the appearance of [[Red Corsairs]] a tenuous ceasefire is eventually agreed upon.{{Fn|2c}} [[Vitrian Messinius]] is later dispatched by [[Guilliman]] to oversee the garrisoning of the Protectorate.{{Fn|2cd}
