Swords of Cerebus #4, Introduction to Issue 17

They speak with a Germanic accent, because Dave Sim was watching a lot of Hogan's Heroes at the time of their creation.

Aardvark Comment in issue 26

Sim says that the T'Gitans only ever had the slimmest possible chance of taking Palnu, and none once Lord Gorce was introduced.

"The T'Gitans were originally Borealans, from up north. They were a mercenary band, with camp followers and other hangers-on. Wandering about the Feldwar States, they settled in Seaf for awhile, but left to avoid the civil war that broke out there. Togith allowed them in."
