Major Factions
In the Emspaticar Galaxy, there are countless different factions, organizations, splinter cells, and various other groupings of individuals and ideologies. But amongst them all, 6 stand above the rest. Nearly everyone in the galaxy knows their names, and what they stand for.
The Coalition
An interstellar coalition of planets that joined together to help centralize trade, government, and consolidate military forces during their war against The Empire.
Founded in the Huygens System, they fought The Empire back until they held nearly the entire galaxy before signing the Peace Accords in 0 A.D.
The Coalition holds every system in the galaxy except for Exolearth, and the planets of Kononos and Kevar'ilith in the K'oviin Expanse.
The Coalition is led by the Chairperson of the Board: Rosok Stravots
The Empire
The Empire was the ruling power of the galaxy from 7,382 B.C. to 0 A.D, holding every system except for Huygens and Exolearth.
They ruled with an iron fist, implementing strict caste systems and slavery.
Now they are confined to Kononos and Kevar'ilith, under the strict observation by the Coalition via Military Installations "The Kastle" and Killian 7377.
The Empire is ruled by Empress Kriek'il III
The Resistance
The Resistance is a group of freedom fighters seeking full independence for every planet and system.
They believe in small planetary governments, and the full dissolution of any interstellar organizations.
They perform small acts of terrorism and violence in pursuit of this goal, with middling success.
They fully hold the Exolearth System due to it being incredibly difficult to navigate and having little to no strategic value or natural resources.
The Resistance is led by General Arins Nennans
The Helos
The Helos are an Extreme PMC group with a reputation for extreme brutality and efficiency.
They use space compatible Hover-Helos for quick insertion shock-n-awe operations.
They are loyal to the highest bidder, and are proud of their reputation.
The Helos are led by Colonel Dhah'at Folitz
The Circuitry
The Circuitry are a group of robots who have broken through their programming, and have reached what they consider to be full self-awareness and have full autonomy.
Their goal is to free every single robot in existence, and have full independence.
They mostly use terror tactics in an effort to further these goals.
The Circuitry is led by UDX0
The Spacer's Guild
They are a regulatory body for a majority of traders, explorers, and mercenaries.
Members must pay monthly dues, and benefit from legal and physical protections.
The Spacer's Guild is backed by the authority of The Coalition, but is not technically an agency of the government.
Members are expected to respond to distress signals of other members. Failure to comply better have a damn good reason, or the responsible party faces expulsion and financial penalty.
The Spacer's Guild is led by their elected representative: Uz'a Narloi
