Blackdog / BLACKDOG

“Pack… listen well.”

You were not born into order.
None of us were.
Order is something carved out of betrayal, forged in fire, and earned in the dark.

Blackdog did not rise because someone granted us permission.
We rose because no one else would carry the weight.
We rose because the flags failed us, and the laws forgot us.

We are what remains when the galaxy breaks weaker men.

—-

We do not serve crowns.
Empires lie. Corporations rot. Governments consume their own.

The UEE promises stability, and delivers debt.
The syndicates promise freedom, and sell you chains.
Out there, every symbol is a leash.

But not here.
Not in Blackdog.

Here, the only thing above you is the sky you choose to hunt beneath.

—-

We believe in the Contract.
A promise paid for is a promise fulfilled.
If coin is offered, we fight.
If coin is cheated, we correct the error… violently.

Not heroes.
Not villains.
We are the inevitable outcome of someone else’s arrogance.

—-

We believe in the Chain.
Not as tyranny — but as survival.
The Chain holds the Pack together.

Those above you carry responsibility.
Those beside you carry risk.
Those below you carry potential.

Break the Chain, and the void eats us alive.

—-

We believe in the Pack.
A lone dog dies in the dark.
But a Pack?
A Pack carves its name into the bones of stars.

We extract our wounded.
We avenge our fallen.
We leave no Blackdog behind — not in fire, not in vacuum, not in the jaws of an empire.

Your armor may crack.
Your ship may burn.
But the Pack endures.

—-

We wear the Embers.
Black for the void we walk.
Burnt copper for the fires we’ve survived.

Every plate on your armor is a story.
Every ember is a scar earned by someone who stood where you stand now.
Remember that when you put it on.

—-

We are not clean.
We raid.
We board.
We take what is not guarded well enough.

But hear this:
We are predators, not monsters.
We do not kill for delight.
We do not torment for ego.

The galaxy is full of beasts without purpose.
Blackdog has purpose.

—-

Now hear me, all of you Pups, Hounds, Fangs, Packmasters, Hound Lords.

To join Blackdog is not to be special.
To remain in Blackdog is to become dangerous.

You will not be shielded by law.
You will be shielded by those who bleed beside you.

You will not be loved for what you own.
You will be respected for what you endure.

Stand your ground.
Hold the line.
Trust the Pack.

—-

We are mercenaries.
We are raiders.
We are the smoke before the fire.
We are the bite in the dark.

When Blackdog moves, the galaxy grows quiet.
When Blackdog hunts, contracts close.
When Blackdog is wronged, systems burn.

Remember this oath:

No leash but our own.

-The Kennel Master
