System History

The Kilrah system was once the very heart of the expansive Kilrathi Empire. It was the political, military, cultural and economic center of the Kilrathi Empire, and among the most heavily-fortified systems in the known galaxy. The system was raided twice by the Confederation in 2667 and again fatally in 2669.

In 2681, Kilrah returned to prominence when an alien race known as the "Nephilim" invaded the Orion Arm of the galaxy by using Kilrah as a site for a wormhole gate from Fluid Space. It was here that a civilian research ship, the TCS Devereaux was destroyed by the Nephilim, alerting the Confederation to a new threat. Kilrah was quickly occupied and became a Nephilim stronghold.

Kilrah was liberated the same year after a concentrated assault on the wormhole gate by Confederation forces from the TCS Midway and TCS Eisen. In a twist of irony, Commodore Christopher Blair, the pilot responsible for the destruction of Kilrah, was among the Confederation officers leading the assault.
