Universe At War

ϓears ago the Universe was thought to be a much smaller place. Earth was the center of the Galaxies, the only planet known to sustain life. Yet as ages passed and the technology of the human race increased, they found themselves to be wrong. They were not alone in this universe.

Șpanning galaxies, they came to planets with life forms, some advanced and others resembling the primal ancestors of their kind. Over a hundred years the Universe was explored and mapped, great races encountered, and a fleet of ships that could cross the black expanse of space grew.

Ϣith the time of Great Exploration came clashes. Space Pirates grew in power, galaxies drew alliances, and the need for a greater force of balance grew. Thus the Intergalactic Council was formed. From across space came leaders of all races who sought peace and order in the galaxies they called home. It was the Council who forged their own army to bring this order. In the year 2164 the Imperial Fleet was founded, and the first Naval Fleet created under the Intergalactic Council's banner.

Ίt is now the year 2307. Ten years have passed since the great Pirate called Regulator Iribis B. Sahlkyr has been killed and ten years since Admiral Illyina Crydaar has gone missing. The Imperial Fleet has rebuilt itself from chaos, and the Pirates once more spread fear across the universe.

Ӫnce again, the Universe is at War.

Ⱦhe Ίmperial Ӻleet of the Ίntergalactic Ȼouncil
╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

Ⱦhe I.F. The Imperial Fleet is meant to patrol space and protect the planetary systems from pirate raids. Their Fleet is similar to a naval system for space and are run with the strictest honor, and despite their dark motto, still are a light in this world.They are of the most feared ship masters in the Universe. Their motto was once, "To protect the innocent and halt the spread of villainous deeds in the universe." During the war with the Regulators it was changed to: "To crush those who oppose peace." They now carry the motto:

"Let our strength bring peace. Rise forth, and carry on."
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Ⱦhe Ίnfernalis Ȼanis Ȼorps
╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
Ⱦhe Infernalis Canis Corps is the Imperial Fleet's secret Spec Ops. group. Their name means Devil Dogs, and like the American Marines of Earth, they deal in the down and dirty espionage of the I.F. The group is comprised of the best hackers, hunters, and soldiers of the Fleet and are some of the best combatants in the entire Fleet. The Infernalis fight alongside their Naval counterparts, and are the backbone of their special operations unit. Their motto is:

"Pugna amo a Leo, iuguolo vacuus a sanus, quod licentia non a vestigium."
Fight like a Lion, kill without a sound, and leave not a trace.
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Ⱦhe Ҏirates
╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

Ⱦhe Pirates of the Galaxy have long since wreaked havoc through the Universe. Some have alliances, bands, or units that work together to reap more riches. Most work alone. Their reasons for pirating vary, some wish for revenge, others riches, and the better of them simply yearn for freedom and find it in their life as a pirate. That does not mean they are not dangerous. Many plague the Imperial Fleet, and most despise them with a passion. They carry no united symbol or motto, though it should be assumed that universally they think:

"Cause hell to the Fleet, take riches, and enjoy some good ale."
