To inform the general public as to the RP statuses of the Various DIC fleets operating newly on discovery, and to answer any initial questions:
-- [DIC-DRN] (Damorean Royal Navy)
Origin Clan(s): NSW (FL:CE, UNSCDF), FotPos (FL:CE, Covenant), CGW {Apocalypse Legion FLeets}
NPC Faction/ID: Bretonian Armed Forces
Backstory: The DRN is a fleet of bretonian military officials who have taken their equipment to guard a particular Royal Liner carrying a new branch of aristocracy: the Damorean Royal Family. The Royal Guard will defend their highnesses with their lives, as they make political trips across Sirius.
-- [DIC-CEL] (Capital Endeavour Legion)
Origin Clan(s): CMA (FL:CE, UNSCDF), Trygas Clan (FL:CE, Covenant) {Prime Legion Fleets}
NPC Faction/ID: BMM (Bretonian Mining and Manufacturing [i know sometimes it says metals or minerals but manufacturing is what the rep card says])
Backstory: When the Damorean Ascendancy arrived, they quickly saw the need for new sources of income, the Capital Endeavour Legion saw that keeping resourcing close to the area of royal operations would be most beneficial, and so began using the assets of BMM corporation to engage in resource gathering and trading operations from the safety of the bretonian Empire.
-- [DIC-BPL] (Black Plunder Legion)
Origin Clan(s): Silueta (FL:CE, Silueta), Enlightenment (FL:CE, Enlightenment) {Prime Legion Fleets}
NPC Faction/ID: Outcasts
Backstory: The ravenous pirates of the black plunder legion fleets, arrived with the rest of the Damorean Imperial Covenant. Since the other legions had quickly integrated themselves into pre-exisitng factions and corporations, the Black Plunder Legionmaster saw that it would be difficult to differentiate between who was serving the DIC and who was not. They thus decided to establish themselves with a pirate organization far away from the other fleets, outcasts in the northern and northeastern parts of Sirius, so as to avoid contact with the rest of the DIC, while weaking the kusari economic engine driving the pressure on bretonia via the tau systems and enjoying their plunder and spoils as all pirates do. Besides, they know that if they accidentally pop a DIC freighter they'll be hunted to extinction.
-- [DIC-TS] (The Scourge Fleet)
Origin Clan(s): (The Scourge, Apocalypse Legion)
NPC Faction/ID : Pending* (will explain)
Backstory: Originally slaves to scrapyard warlords, the group of pilots and captains which now makes up the scourge, were fed up of their mistreatment, but were unable to free themselves... until the Damorean Imperial Covenant offered them escape from their plight. Securing themselves a position as one of the Fleets of Apocalypse Origin Legion, the Scourge was able to build up a substantial group of resources and personnel needed to make themselves a substantial force. With the support of the other Damorean Fleets, they were able to succeed from their tormentors, and forge a new destiny for themselves alongside the Damorean Imperial Covenant.

OOC Section:
1) The Scourge Faction/ID pending status is because the leader of the Clan called "the scourge" has yet to determine which NPC faction best suits his cause, they want to be terrorist like, and fight the junkers, but also have access to capital ships, so we're still working that one out, it'll be updated when a decision is made.
2) People reading this may be wondering "what is this anyway?" -- to answer your question, this is the explanation for the RP that the Damorean Imperial Covenant is involving itself in on this server. So i will make this into a bit of an FAQ about the DIC:
Why are you involving in more than one faction?
Plain and simple, the Damorean Imperial Covenant is an empire whose member-fleets are entire clans, and with 60+ members at the moment, we cant satisfy everyone with one faction, we have pirates, we have lawfuls, and we have people who want to do nothing more than trade all day (the CMA boys). With so many people from such a diverse background, we cant hope to satisfy everyone with a single faction or roleplay style, and we have the manpower and support to field numerous factions.
Isnt that kind of cheap all working together?
Well, we do appreciate the true spirit of roleplay, and we dont want to upset any balances, this is why our pirate and lawful factions wont intermingle. If they do encounter each other, they will be asked to roleplay as they would for their faction, and maybe involve in a skirmish, but you will certainly not see our traders or lawfuls being backed up by a crack team of pirate fighters, thats just ridiculous. The Common tag is to just show that we come from the same place and put some pride in our work.
So what is the DIC anyway?
The Damorean Imperial Covenant is made up of numerous clans from many gaming platforms that we have encountered: Freelancer, Halo 3, homeworld, command and conquer, battletech, the list goes on. We have found clans that have common interests, and brought them together as fleets and companies in the many legions of the Empire. For example, clans that prefer trading go together in the Capital Endeavour Legion, while plundering pirates work together in the Black Plunder Legion. Each Member clan retains its leader, its internal politics, and can recruit its own members, they dont even have to adjust their style of play.
Anyway, just to let you all know, we'll abide by the rules of your server, we promote fairness and good fun, and all in all we're just here to have a good time in a RP friendly environment (quite a rarity these days), if you have any further questions, i will be checking this thread periodically to answer them, and this is all just to let people know what we're about.

Thank you all and have a good day.
