✠ Background

Maltese Military Research Institute was formed shortly after 101st Ghosts of Razgriz vanished. A group of soldiers with interests in science decided to form The Institute to handle the technology that made Outcasts stand on higher ground than the rest of humanity, whilst launching offensive attacks using state of the art technology and collecting valuable scientific/tactical data. With their passion towards preservation of peace within the nation of Malta and their drive to safeguard the Maltese people, they're the most loyal and generous Maltese.

The dark space of Omicron Phi provides them with the cover needed to protect Military secrets of Malta, whilst giving them enough space to conduct research and provide strategical headquarters if Malta was ever in a need. Code of conduct is highly restrictive and unforgiving. Generosity and sharing of information and technology outside of the Maltese people is explicitly forbidden, nor bribes. Breakers of this are sentenced to the worst death possible. Likewise, breaking the law either in a written or unwritten form is severely punished. Administrators are of permanent position and may not leave the group once submitting themselves to the pact.

If a miracle is to happen where they die and are revived, their sentence of service is still enforced. Every year, Administrators are required to undergo additional severe military training and are pushed to their limit and beyond to keep their bodies in the best shape possible. Likewise their intelligence is not lacking and exceeds that of other Maltese, Professorship attained from the best Universities of Malta, with topics concerning IT, Physics, Biology and Chemistry. On the other hand, they can be less than mature at times, their burning passion for Malta often drives them to childish actions in space.

Some Administrators are kind and helpful to anyone in need of assistance that is capable of asking in a proper manor. Given the background of the majority, they were similarly raised in an environment where family comes before everything else, and taking care of other Maltese was, is, and always will be encouraged. Each administrator has access to their own RM-2A "Storta" Destroyer for diplomatic, offensive or defensive purposes. With their love for Malta and its people, they produce, repair and upgrade Maltese Warships and technology in general. Even today the majority of the Maltese work force consists of slaves, the same is true for the Insitute.

However, over time the Institute looks to replace those slaves with AI, robots and machines. Which are highly effective at the given job, do not need rest or food, and occasionally need to be maintained. But even the Institute's administrators have their limits, and a large scale change such as this has already cost them years, Eventually they will relocate former slaves to different places, possibly back to Malta for field work away from Maltese warship construction.

Guards (Guardia) of the Institute are the most patriarchal and brave Maltese commanders. They are often given an insight as to the current developments of the Institute in case they're interested in the advances of technology at hand. "M"altese "N"aval War"S"hips and their captains are generally looked up to, as they protect Malta and the Maltese people against any who dare threaten the Maltese people or their way of life. Despite political or personal reasons and hatreds. The "101st Ghosts of Razgriz" are to be remembered and revered for most of what the Maltese have today.

13th Squadron is comprised of elite IRMM Agents and the identities of these people are known only to Administrator themselves. 13th itself as a name was chosen to represent enemy's doom when meeting these pilots. Squadron can freely engage any hostiles anywhere within Malta's reach without prior Administrator approval.

✠ Additional Funding

Most of the funding for Omicron Phi comes from Warship and Technology selling. Malta has plenty of wars with ships in a need of repairs or upgrades. And to boost their own economy, Corsica produces a wider variety of vessels that are exported to stations both inside and outside of Omicron Phi.

✠ Bases of operation

Corsica Outer Sanctum

Massive black asteroid base partially constructed by unknown hands. Nowadays it's the main base of "Maltese Military Research Institute", producing the most massive of Maltese Warships. Internal structure contains giant storage space taking nearly a half of the base size, which is hidden under the city. On the scale of taking space, second one is the massive supercomputer array, holding information raging from simple door access to secret projects run by the Institute. It's a full fledged city built for any needs necessary. With several interconnected Ranseur class Singularity Reactors it's not possible to run out of electricity in foreseeable future. And every Maltese is given a choice for PDA or Neural implant to have means of interaction with the city and chats with other Maltese on board. Crime is literally unexistent due to only the most patriotic Maltese living inside. With everyone having a Military training, it's not suitable for anyone to conduct crimes. The Cardamine City is the pinnacle of Maltese ingenuity ran by The Institute, holding many secrets to Maltese way of life.

Dreadnought Captana

Warship of former 101st Ghosts of Razgriz. Used to be only maintained before Administrators decided to upgrade it's internal parts and outer hull. As the Main-Battle-Dreadnought of Omicron Phi, it receives the most care and ideas from Maltese pilots all around the space. Currently holding sellpoints for Snubs, it's the coordination HQ for squadrons, just as Corsica is for capital fleet. A testbed for the newest technology.

Bastia Station

With its extensive cargo space modules its able to survive long periods of time without resupply, since access to Omicron Phi is restricted to all but Maltese. Serving as a recon outpost for any would be attackers it holds holds several squadrons of Carabelas, Rapiers and Falcatas, always on alert and ready to take action. Outifitted with extensive Scanner and Communication array, this station holds the 1st line of defense of Corsica Outer Sanctum.

✠ Area of operation

Omicrons mainly, but may conduct war in line with Maltese politics and piracy for valuable cargo. Diplomacy and trade is not restricted by borders or nationality as long as it benefits Malta.

Omicron Phi is considered a Guard system, and as such, any and all violators shall be exterminated on sight or taken into custody for interrogation. This includes a 10k security zone around Omicron Phi hole in Omicron Alpha.

✠ Politics

• Allied:
Any Maltese law-obiding group or individual

• Neutral:
Golden Chrysanthemums - Cardamine traders within Kusari, and exclusively women.
Junkers - Cardamine and scrap traders with neutral stance with Houses. Good politicians.
Lane Hackers - Cardamine and information traders.
Liberty Rogues - Cardamine traders and piracy force within Liberty.

• Unfriendly:
Blood Dragons - Devoted warriors of Kusari to overthrow current government.
Gallic Brigands - Cardamine traders within Gallia.
Nomads - Left hand doesn't know what the right one does.
The Commune - Great soldiers which vanished from Malta and are under Vagrant Nomads.
The Core - Imperial incarnation of The Order.
The Oracles - Outlawed, yet a good source of information on K'Hara Nomads.
Zoners - White-horse group of people to supply Maltese nation.
Foreigners using Maltese technology.

• Hostile:
Any unauthorized machine or organism inside Omicron Phi.
Foreign Intelligence agencies in Maltese Controlled space.
Any group or individual considered hostile by current politics of Malta or shows signs of Anti-Maltese politics.
Infectees in general.
Everyone else.

Due to a very volatile nature regarding Malta and people torn between "Spirits are gods", "Nomads are friends" and "Aliens should die", Institute will stay distanced from them. As such, if we see them in Omicron Alpha it becomes a case by case diplomacy.

Example A Wrote:If you EVER come back, we will raize your homes. Murder your familys and steal your wives. We will leave your corpses butchered piled high for all to see that Malta is the dominant power in the universe and that our law reigns supreme.

Example B Wrote:All those who betray the trust and safety that the Maltese provide, shall be scattered to the wind like rats, to starve to death under the darkness of the void. Malta is absolute, and shall suffer no traitors.

Example C Wrote:Hear my Sermon Maltese people! One day all of Sirius shall understand their mistakes, they shall flock to our corner of space, our empire. Seeking forgiveness and asylum, but by then there shall be no safety, no open arms, they shall burn as it will have been too late. Judgement day has passed and all who deny the Maltese today, will rot tomorrow.

Example D Wrote:The Deadly Symphony of your demise rings out to the heavens, the time of your glorious death is upon you! Begone pathetic worm, for Malta!
