House Van Saars are Saar is well-known for the superiority quality of their arms and equipmentits technical products. Their Van Saar technology is no more cutting-edge advanced than the other Houses. The House's that of anyone else, but their manufacturing procedures processes are clear-cut precise and its completed products their finished materials are of the utmost noted for their highest quality. The [[Noble Houses]] of the hive are known to pay handsomely top prices for Van Saar-made goods; as a result, the House is undoubtedly probably the wealthiest in Hive Primus.{{Fn|1}} Due to this familiarity with Imperial weaponry, as well as the abilities to improve and use it in combat, Van Saars are often recruited by the [[Imperial Guard]] as "High Utility Conscripts".{{Fn|2}} Their staggering power, however, is built around a dark secret – flaws in their understanding the corrupted [[STC]] that creates their technology, flaws that bathe them in radiation and slowly kill them from within.{{Fn|4c}}
The Van Saars have a well-earned reputation of being serious minded and sombre people, with a deeply deep-seated emphasis placed on order and hierarchy. Like the other gangs of Hive City the Van Saars have a style of clothing which distinguishes them from others. In their case this equates to a close-fitting body suit intended to defend and sustain the wearer in the harsh hive environment. Semi-permeable membranes in the suit reduce the loss of the body’s dampness whilst numerous spots on the material change colour to inform the wearer of airborne pollutants and reduced levels of oxygen.{{Fn|3}} The Van Saars' gang-dialect is know as ''Techno-lingua'' and ''Tek-Nik-El''.{{Fn|13}}
