| '''Kar Alabrek''' was designed by former [[House Ludo Kressh]] Quaestor [[Malisane de Ath]] at the request of Master [[Trevarus Caerick]] Quaestor of [[House Marka Ragnos]] and Governor of [[Tarthos]] and constructed in 28 ABY around [[Alabrek Castle]] following the [[Invasion of Orian]] and the destruction of the previous [[Dlarit Security Force]] installation | | The present day city of '''Kar Alabrek''' was designed by the former [[Governor (Dlarit Corporation)|Governor ]] [[Malisane de Ath]] at the request of Governor [[Trevarus Caerick]] following the destruction of the much of the previous [[Dlarit Security Force]] headquarters in [[26 ABY to Present|27 ABY]].

| This garrison city is the principle settlement on Tarthos to provide a home for the Dlarit Security Force and the members of [[House Marka Ragnos]]. Like [[Aeotheran]] city [[Seng Karash]], it is a large walled settlement with outlying districts formed around a central hub. Unlike Seng Karash the principle feature of Kar Alabrek is military not commercial or industrial, and though it does not have a floating defence like the [[Marakith Skyhook]], a large number of concealed surface to air silos, ion cannons and turbolasers have been deployed at strategic points around the city. In addition heavy fighter cover patrols the sky over the city.
| | The history of Kar Alabrek actually stretches back to the [[Dlarit Corporation]]'s arrival in the [[Orian system]] a decade earlier when [[Tarthos]] was designated to be the home of the corporation's military interests. The former security headquarters were constructed on the site of what is now Kar Alabrek under the guidance of then [[Lieutenant Governor (Dlarit Corporation)|Lieutenant Governor]] Trevarus Caerick. However, the old settlement was forced to expand faster than intended, leading to the gaps in security that were exploited during the [[Invasion of Orian]]. While parts of the city remain similar to before, the main infrastructure has been completely overhauled to close any security holes. |

Around the castle are extensive guardens, designed at the request of Governor [[Trevarus Caerick]], including expensively landscaped trees and bushes, fountains, and statues depicting famous hero's from the House Marka Ragnos' past and present. The gardens are surrounded by a tall hedge to both block out the view of the city beyond and give it some privacy.
