The Elysians come from a verdant world some thirty light years from [[Armageddon]], towards the [[galactic hub]]. The [[Elysia system]] and surrounding [[wilderness space]] is notorious for its marauding [[Ork]] warbands and [[pirates]], as a main trade route through the [[sector]] passes through Elysia, and the system's many swirling gas clouds and hundreds of asteroid fields provide perfect ambush sites. Through combating this ever-present threat, the Elysians are therefore well trained in ship-to-ship boarding actions, and fighting in concert with orbital support when attacking isolated pirate bases.{{Fn|8a}}{{Fn|9a}}
