Yeah, for fun :p ! I was angling for Lee to come from an old colony, one that pre-dates the Hegemony. For the sake of argument, "New Britannia". They have always been loyal to "Earth", though obviously no one from there has ever seen humanity's fabled birthplace. The long service of the world means they are regarded as loyalists by the Hegemony leadership, so they get certain breaks and favours, maybe pissing off colonies who are less compliant? However, after centuries of ship-building and void fighting, the Britannians have a reputation within the fleet as highly competent voidsmen, with a proud tradition and highly effective officer training regime that has lead to them earning a (somewhat grudging) respect amongst their comrades.
