The Order is a paramilitary organization dedicated to the defeat of the Nomads within Sirius. The organization was formed by was founded by one of the last uninfected members of the otherwise unrelated Order of Cincinnatus, a man named Casper Orillion. Orillion founded The Order after it became apparent that the majority of his colleagues and superiors within the Order of Cinncinatus were infected and planning to destroy humanity.
After the temporary defeat of the Nomads at the end of the Nomad War, Orillion commanded The Order for some time, before disappearing from known space. In the absence of the founder, the Order High Command was set up to be the leadership body of The Order.
Over time, and with a lot of care, the organization grew tremendously, having eyes and ears in every corner of Sirius.
History
The organization referred to today as The Order was founded by the one of the few uninfected members of the Order of Cincinnatus. The Order of Cincinnatus was founded in 28 A.S. as a secret branch of the Liberty government that was created originally to research the Alien Artifacts found on Planet Manhattan. Later, the Order of Cinncinatus, much more knowledgeable that there could be active aliens operating in Sirius, expanded it's authority so it could establish an autocratic government over Liberty if Liberty's existence itself was ever threatened. Once the threat had passed or been eliminated, the Order of Cincinnatus was intended to disappear without a trace. It was effectively a shadow government with extensive knowledge of Alien Artifacts and technology and Nomads as well as the power to control the majority of Liberty's naval might and government authority.
During the Nomad War, the Order of Cincinnatus was infected by the Nomads. Almost all, except for a few had been possessed. One of these uninfected was a man called Casper Orillion. He began to speak out against the threat of the Nomads as it became more and more apparent that they posed a threat, but his colleagues within the Liberty Security Force were already infected and responded to him as a danger to their operations, as did the majority of the Order of Cincinnatus, who had also been infected. Orillion fled to the icy Planet Toledo in the Omicron Minor System with the Osiris Prototype, a new battleship that was designed for completely covert warfare.
Orillion and whatever sympathetic, uninfected people that he gathered before he left and were on the Osiris were the first members of The Order that we know of today. They are referred to as the first, original cell. Ever since they arrived in the Edge, they were gathering supporters throughout Sirius to prepare for the oncoming storm of the Nomad War. Construction on the then-makeshift and temporary base on Planet Toledo also began at that time.
While classified as a terrorist organization by the Liberty government, the Order has historically been regarded favorably by Rheinland, likely due to Rheinland's own problems with The Wild, and is considered neutral by Kusari and Bretonia.
Since it's inception, The Order has been based on Planet Toledo in the Omicron Minor system. During the Battle of Omicron Minor in the Nomad War this base was severely damaged by bombardment from a Nomad fleet. It was later rebuilt as a more permanent base of operations for The Order, rather than just being an outpost on the edge of space. It is now a fully-fledged center of operations for The Order itself.
Controlled and contested space
The Order holds exclusive claims to Omicron Minor and Omicron 100 but it's area of operations is all over Sirius. They however, mainly operate in the Omicrons, especially Omicron Delta and Omicron Kappa directly against the Nomads and recently, defensively against the Guild Core.
Their home-world of Toledo is guarded by Battleship Isis, which is constantly in orbit around the planet lest any hostile fleet attack.
The system of Omicron 100 holds the majority of what is considered primary fleet personnel, research facilities and the only known shipyard to produce ships exclusive to The Order.
Current rumours suggest the organization has struck an alliance with some Rheinland unlawful revolutionary forces and that The Order's Zone of Influence is significantly compounded in the Omegas and Rheinland. These rumours have caused tensions in relations with the Corsairs.
Rumours within the higher echelons of The Order suggest another even more secret system exists under their control. It also suggests that this system is guarded by forces more powerful than the organization currently employs. This has categorically been denied by the Order High Command.
