Supreme power in the House is overseen by the various [[Archeoteks]], masters of tech-lore who oversee the secret STC at their core. While similar to the [[tech-priest]]s of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]], these figures have no interest in the religion of the [[Omnissiah]].{{Fn|7d}} Beneath the Archeoteks are [[Primes]], who act as middle-rank overseers. Beneath these are the Primes' lieutenants, which include [[Augmek]]s. Beneath these figures are [[Tek]]s and [[Subtek]]s, which is a catch-all term for workers and warriors.{{Fn|7d}}
Unlike the other Clan Houses which rely on gangs of slaves and uneducated masses of workers, every member of Van Saar is a an expert in the task they undertake, no matter how simple it may be.{{Fn|7d}}
The House's territories extend to machine shops, underhive scavengers, and the heat sink of Hive Primus known as the [[Thermal Core]]. However its main base is within the upper reaches of Hive Primus' Hive City, next to its spaceport. Hanging below the Spaceport is the [[Chamber of Light]], where the precious STC of the House resides.{{Fn|7d}}
