The Order (player faction)

Introduction

The Order Primary Fleet is dedicated to the defense of Order territories, the destruction of all alien factions (Das Wilde, Slomon K'Hara, The Phantom Empire) and the protection of Liberty.

Historical Information

In 800 A.S. the leader of the Order was an ex LSF agent named Casper Orillion. Once he saw the problems rising within Liberty, he and a group of loyal followers stole Liberty’s new prototype warship, dubbed it The Osiris and escaped into the depths of the Omicron systems, from where they launched their campaigns against the Nomads. During Orillion's rule the Order, a small wing of elite pilots led by Jonathan Pryde arose to fly high-risk and dangerous missions. When Orillion passed away Pryde came into control and became Grand Admiral of the Order. Pryde’s group of elite fighters came into control of the Order and for ~15+ standard years, Black Squadron ruled the Order, with only a few Order members flying independently for specialized missions. Pryde passed down leaderships to a young man named Dustin Hoff, who commanded the Order for the most time of any other leader. After his retirement, a rather quiet man, known only as “Helljumper” became leader. Helljumper however, ruled for the shortest amount of time, as he himself retired, leaving Adrian McKinley in command of the Order in 816 A.S.

By this time the Order was no longer a small fleet controllable by one man. Members from all reaches of Sirius had joined, and the fleet expanded into the main body and various smaller forces. The Order had also discovered a new system within the Omicrons and declared it their home. Having established friendly relations with the Corsair and Zoner factions, as well as hostilities with the Liberty and Bounty Hunter factions, the Order became a larger body. Naturally, a power struggle began, as many believed no one man should be supreme leader of the Order. Seeing these tensions rising, Adrian McKinley resigned as leader of the Order, temporarily leaving the Order without a leader. Sius Malacos, McKinley’s second in command, took action, and along with 4 other highly qualified members of the Order, created the Order High Command. The High Command was compromised of 5 members. It took the role of the Order’s leadership, as a more democratic form of government.

The first initiative of this newly founded was the creation of the primary fleet. This fleet would is now hte largest among the Order, and is compromised of what was Black Squadron, as well as new members who decided to join the fleet to do greater good. While smaller groups still exist, the primary fleet makes up the bulk of the Order force, being the largest and most powerful fleet the Order has yet seen. The group operates out of Omicron 100, and is led by non other than Sius Malacos, the man who perhaps most helped in creating the Order High Command.
