—His servants:

    BRETHREN, a Mericanii artificial intelligence composed of human tissue designed to grow forever. Confined to an underground sea in order to support its weight.

    YUME, an android which acts as the Undying’s caretaker and butler.

During the Battle of Ganelon in ISD 17131, HADRIAN MARLOWE hears SAMARA, GAIZKA, TAKESHI, and URBAINE, four Elect-Masters of the Lodge (MINOS), discussing KHARN SAGARA's duplication at the Battle Upon Demiurge. According to the Elect-Masters, REN SAGARA and SUZUHA SAGARA battled for rule of the planet Vorgossos. Suzuha appears to have won.

“Sagara has paid for his hubris, Takeshi,” said tall Gaizka. “He has lost Vorgossos to himself.”

“Herself,” Urbaine said. “I heard the woman won.”

Lost Vorgossos? My mind reeled. Kharn Sagara at war with himself? When I left the Undying, it had been as two people. His consciousness had duplicated, received by two of his clone children. They had elected to coexist, to rule Vorgossos together. Evidently, that peace had not endured.

In The Acosmist, in Tales 4, SYRIANI DORAYAICA mentions receiving a weapon from Sagara as tribute after Sagara submitted.

The little creature that had given him the weapon in tribute had called itself a king, though it was less than the meanest slave, a mongrel of no nation, the whelp of some other world. But the dwarf had offered him weapons unlike any he had ever seen- that alone suggested it was a slave of the gods, for who but the gods could create such marvels? And the dwarf had declared itself his slave, pledged allegiance to his cause. It may have been a lie, but it did not matter. Abysscrosser had not known what to make of the strange creature. But Sagara’s weapons were of unquestioned might.
