Pre-Revival: Caliburnus Prospectus
Brief History
House Caliburnus had long been known as the Sith arm of the Royal Clan, Scholae Palatinae. Caught in a maelstrom of a political climate, House Caliburnus had once vanished from the Brotherhood entirely. Taking it's name from an ancient and legendary weapon, Caliburnus stood to fight with immeasurable tenacity. Steeped in the ancient riddles and mysteries of the Sith, Caliburnus had found the secret to resurrection. Then, on the outside reaches of the Cocytus System, House Caliburnus had returned from the dead...

Society and Culture
Following its revival, House Caliburnus has made steps to forsake the former age of isolation in exchange for increased cooperation with House Acclivis Dragon and increased involvement in Clan Summit affairs. As a result, the House’s new headquarters, Steelstrike Garrison, was established on Seraph instead of its own planet as a symbol of collaboration between the House and the Summit. This has also led to an increased emphasis on strengthening its military might and presence to serve the Empire more efficiently while exhibiting its power to the rest of the Caperion System.
Caliburnus has also directed its focus to its Sith heritage, calling for a resurgence in pride for its traditions and philosophy that stem from its founding in 13 ABY. With this, there has been an increase in the study and acquisition of ancient Sith texts, artifacts, and history with the goal of finding and achieving greater power in all disciplines that mark the House for what it represents.

Headquarters - Steelstrike Garrison
Main Article: Steelstrike Garrison
Unlike its Ptolomean predecessor, the Obsidian Palace, the headquarters for Caliburnus on Seraph are no longer the opulent quarters for a tyrant. The Steelstrike Garrison was built for practicality and function rather than being a lavish show of the House's wealth.
The Garrison is built into the side of a mountain, making use of much of the existing cave and tunnel systems left behind by the aboriginal people that had once called the mountain home.
Its location is strategic, being within easy reach of the Monolith. Thus, it would likely be Caliburnus rising to the occasion should the Monolith and the Clan Summit require protection from any incoming threat or attack.
Aboriginal Shrine
Atop the mountain where the base resides is an aboriginal shrine with hints of native astrology that is still undergoing study. However, the peaceful location has become a place of meditation for some of the Force-users of the House.
Military
Unlike in the past, the military of House Caliburnus has shifted to serving as one of the Clan's Imperial Naval Task Forces.
