Past Synopsis:

The Blackguard was a secretive part of The Order formed back in 801.A.S. during the end of the nomad war. The job of the group and its members was to hold down the nomad threats not just within the Omicron systems, but within the whole Sirius.

Present Synopsis:

The Blackguard is a group that was formed for the reason of eliminating the deep threats within the Sirius sector. It is made of scientists, combatants, assassins, engineers and many more different types of people. After many incidents that struck the group and led it into hiding, it was reformed, again, under the Stormclaw banner for the goal to protect Sirius and the interest of people within it.

History:

801.A.S.

Formation of The Blackguard happened when the orders fell down upon the crew of the Osiris to make a distraction on the far end of the Omicron Minor system. The task force consisted of about 300 people that were lead by Lord Hakkera. Working along with him on the ship, a man know as Joker led the Osiris escort wing into the diversion battle. The mission was a success and the Osiris was returned with small amounts of damage. A bit after the battle was won, Joker wanted to have his own wing of fighters for his own goals. They did not differ much from the Order's, but what he wanted is a freedom from the orders except Orillion's or later. other Grand Admiral's orders. The group that had initially started as a wing of 5 fighter pilots was known as The Blackguard hit and run unit. Doing a good job has made them known within the Order ranks quite fast and it did not take too long before they earned their rights to bigger vessels.

813.A.S.

Earning the right to own an a warship, Joker decided to take one for The Blackguard, filling it with the crew that he would find. The ship chosen for that was a libertonian dreadnought that found itself in the Omicron systems. It was found somewhere around year 806.A.S. when The Blackguard hit and run unit was patroling a sector in the Omicron systems. The ship was towed back to the Order shipyards where it was fully restored, refitted and upgraded with Order tech, along with a cloaking device. The ship was ready to move out and fight the nomads at every turn. After managing that much, the force known as The Blackguard hit and run unit was renamed to Blackguard Rapid Response Squadron. When the command was issued by the current Grand Admiral, the squadron went outside the Omicron systems to hunt for any nomad activity within the Sirius sector. The decision was brought to go around Sirius and ensure the peace while looking for people to join. Going place to place and around settlements, large and small, Joker got lucky as he started finding more and more people. One of them was Tia Stormclaw. The first to join The Blackguard from the outside and was named The First Elite. Not answering to anyone, but Joker, she took on a mission to work separately from the group, joining them once in a month or two while Joker continued working as he was set already.

815.A.S.

Massively engaging Nomad forces, the squadron stumbled upon more and more people, where it went from being a squadron, to a battlegroup full of researchers, assassins, engineers and combatants. When the time came, they returned to the Order shipyards to repair the ship of any damages so they could continue their job as hunters. They met with the new people within the Order and some of them even joined in, knowing the extreme risks by traveling within the group. With every battle at hand, things started to go a bit strange when the main fleet stopped reporting bit by bit. Ignoring this, Joker continued his work, not knowing about anything of what is to come soon.

818.A.S.

After some time of being silent, the Primary fleet contacted the Battlegroup and ordered them to return to the primary shipyards, return the ship and disband completely to work under the primary Order fleet. The Battlegroup refused this and was given a few months time to reconsider this since they would be put as the enemies of each and every Order unit in Sirius. A few months passed and the Battlegroup did not obey the order, which made them enemies of the Primary fleet. They were on the run and they were hidden well. The Order could not find them at all. With that, the ones that were known as Blackguard Rapid Response Battlegroup, were now known as Order Renegade faction Blackguard or simply The Blackguard.



820.A.S.

Depleted of resources for the ship movement, they were completely stuck within Nomad territory. Days passed until their end hit hard. On the 23rd of November, several Nomad Guardians appeared and opened fire on the ship. managing to barely escape, The Blackguard survived with little losses. After they managed to collect themselves, they decided to hide until it was possible to reform and so they did, not to be seen for a long time.

Early 823.A.S.

A month or two after Joker's movement, the other Blackguard members got a hold of the movement. Making a deal with the Core to aid them in their combat against the Order and the Nomads, The Blackguard got access to destructive weaponry that The Core owned. It did not last long when Joker's mind was touched by the Nomads where his decision came to go their way. Committing a crime against The Blackguard by betrayal and murder of a fellow member, along with his most trusted members, he hid and waited for the moment while someone was searching for answers. The First Elite, Tia Stormclaw, would not let this pass so she decided to act.



Mid 823.A.S.

Having nowhere to go after disbandment and Joker’s betrayal of humanity, each and every member of The Blackguard decided to go their own way until called again. Playing mercenaries, escorts, traders and such they kept in silence and away from the assassins of the traitor.

Late 823.A.S.

Being stuck in one place with nothing to do and nowhere to go, the First Elite decided to ask the Auxesian Guildkeeper for help. She got the small assistance of a better reputation and bounty boards around Sirius. IMG, Bretonia, Auxesia. With these, Tia Stormclaw decided to go hunting and get some money. From there, it went better and better. Several stronger ships came by and along with those ships, small trading and escort contracts with other factions. It was a good, new start.

Nowdays

With the decision brought at hand, she went to look for the old Blackguard lores to see what the history held and if she could use it at all. With that, she went and asked around for a place for The Blackguard to work. With approval of IMG, the force was move to Singapore shipyard, a secretive base deep within Tau-44. The Blackguard moves on to various jobs around Sirius, hoping to gain influence on the upcoming events. With the assistance of the Blueprints made while within The Core, Tia contacted the BMM for help of the ship building. While the blueprints were being realized, the resource collection was nearing its end.

FEEDBACK THREAD HERE

Quote:THIS IS A REQUEST TO BE PUT ON A TRACKER. (PUT ON OTHER SUBFORUM IF THIS ONE IS WRONG)
if you only want to be added to tracker then make a player request and ask a mod to move this thread to unofficial groups and factions
if you want to give a shot at acquiring official status leave it be, but do let the staff know since this a bit confusing

a small tip: it would be best if recruitment was done via forum so you would receive a small bump(free publicity ) with each new application

To hell with it. This is an official request now. I am giving 500 million with or without it.
As Hannibal said, you have to put in a player request mate... also i ran into one of your guys today, he decided to ignore a Liberty Naval Warship and dock on a Navy Base... i dont get what kind of RP you guys are aiming for, but you might want to actually RP.

I have contacted you on Skype about the issue.

And I have decided to put it as an official faction request.
Money taken, added to Tracker


Good luck
Yep, good luck guys.
Zone of influence added. 2 new ship types added. Proposed ID added.
1. What's the "Stormclaw banner"?
2. "Joker’s betrayal of humanity". Who's he? What did he do? What was Blackguard's connection to him? Where's Batman?
3. "was formed for the reason of eliminating the deep threats within the Sirius sector" That's extremely vague. What deep threats within Sirius?
4. Who is this "she" we keep reading about in your story?
5. "to look for the old Blackguard lores" on a distant planet in outer space? Where? The lore of BG is an ancient scroll? Besides, that's a one man job. It's not important for the faction info page.

As it is now, your faction background is very vague. It looks like you rushed for officialdom without putting effort behind this faction.

1. "Stormclaw Banner". What I meant here is that The Blackguard will be lead by Tia Stormclaw.
2. Joker is the ex-leader of the Blackguard who decided to turn to the Nomad side.
3. Deep threats of Sirius. The lore is talking about Order, Nomads, Core and so on, depending who they see as a threat.
4. "She" is the First Elite that is mentioned in the 3rd paragraph and I continued with the "she" on the 4th.
5. Old Blackguard lore. Data and Information on my past attempt on creating The Blackguard. I have erased most of it, but I am thinking of putting it there again.

Yes I have rushed a bit, but I am feeling lucky.
