I've always dug the Hapes Consortium. Court politics from a historically rich star cluster that started out as a pirate's den. Great stuff.
As far as the board goes, if I remember correctly, the last iteration of the Hapes Consortium was run by an alt of
Cira
who, as so far as I can tell, is no longer active. Even then, it was a small thing with a small group of writers and I'm not certain that any of them are still writing active characters on Chaos. Though there are a number of active characters with Hapan lineage.
