History
### Classified: Internal Archive — Ember Codex Entry 01

### Founding — Year 2342
Humanity was expanding aggressively into the frontier. Corporate wars replaced national conflict, and power flowed through those who controlled force, not law. Dozens of fractured mercenary legions fought for scraps, selling their loyalty to the highest bidder.
One warlord burned them all into unity.
His name was [[Vor’kan Vorn]], later honored as the Dragon Sovereign.
A tactician with a doctrine built on fear, precision, and discipline, Vorn absorbed or destroyed rival mercenary outfits and reforged the survivors into a single entity — the 104th DragonCorp.
He gave the Corps its creed:
> “From flame, discipline. From discipline, victory.”
The founders adopted a sigil shaped like a forward-facing dragon, forged in red and black: a symbol of dominance, not negotiation.
Clad in beskar-inspired armor plates and tribal marks, officers swore loyalty not to a nation, but to the Sovereign and to the 104th.
The first entry in the Ember Codex read:
> “Fear is the first weapon. Discipline is the last.”

### Era of Consolidation (2342–2369)
The 104th specialized in operations where diplomacy had failed — or was never attempted.
- Planetary suppression
- Hostile asset recovery
- Overwhelming force deployment
Their approach was simple: hit hard, burn everything unworthy, leave witnesses.
Every soldier carried the dragon sigil without text — the symbol alone was enough to make militias surrender.

### Internal Upheaval — The Cleansing of Weak Flame (2369)
As the Corps grew, ambition cracked unity.
Captains began to hoard influence, treating personal warbands as private armies. Vor’kan Vorn made a decision consistent with his doctrine:
Weak flame is extinguished.
In a single night, loyalists struck every rebellious command post simultaneously.
This purge — now called The Cleansing of Weak Flame — cemented one truth:
> “The Corps has no room for those who hesitate.”
—-
### Ascension of Dra’kar Vorn — Commander-General
Upon the death of Vor’kan Vorn, his successor stepped forward:
Dra’kar Vorn — Blood Descendant & Commander-General of the 104th
Dra’kar took the mantle but not the title Dragon Sovereign.
That title remains forever attached to Vor’kan — the eternal founder.
Dra’kar’s leadership sharpened the Corps into a precision instrument:
- No empires.
- No politics.
- Contracts only.
His Doctrine of Applied Fear transformed the Corps’ reputation. Officers no longer shouted orders — they enforced silence with presence alone.
Recruitment became selective to the point of myth. Those who survived initiation were branded with the dragon — not ink, but burn.

### Modern Day
The 104th DragonCorp is now:
- A private military dynasty
- Feared across the frontier
- Recognized by symbol alone
They do not negotiate.
They do not apologize.
They do not retreat.
Their emblem — crimson dragon on black — carries a promise:
> Fire is Discipline.
—-
### Operational Credo (recited before deployment):
> _“We are the fire that shapes metal.
> We bend, or we break.
> But we never bow.”_
Manifesto
We were not born from peace.
The 104th DragonCorp rose from the collapse of undisciplined mercenary legions — groups that valued noise over precision and chaos over control. Where others chased glory, the 104th carved purpose from fire.
Our doctrine is simple:
From flame, discipline.
From discipline, victory.
We do not fight to be seen.
We do not fight to be remembered.
We fight so that the mission ends.
The 104th operates under the Sovereign’s Code:
Precision. Loyalty. Silence.
Every operative is a blade — sharpened, deliberate, controlled.
We do not roar before we strike.
We strike, and the battle ends.
There is no ego here.
No theatrics.
No heroes.
Only results.
We select those who understand that discipline is strength — that restraint is more powerful than rage. If you seek attention, look elsewhere. If you seek challenge, refinement, and purpose:
You will not find the 104th.
We will find you.
Fire is Discipline. Victory is inevitable.
Charter

We seek completion.
2. Leadership Authority
All strategic command flows from the office of the Dragon Sovereign.
The Sovereign’s authority is final.
The Sovereign is never replaced.
Commanders and operatives serve in the Sovereign’s shadow, upholding doctrine and discipline.
Failure to follow lawful orders is not a mistake — it is a dismissal.

5. Information Security
Internal communication, mission details, identities, and operational planning are confidential.
If you talk loosely, you are not with us.
“Need to know” governs all communication
External inquiries receive no information
Failure to maintain silence results in removal
The Dragon does not roar. It waits.
6. Chain of Command
Orders flow downward. Accountability flows upward.
