“Folks say the Dust ain’t real. Just stories. But when the smoke clears and the job’s done – someone always paid the price.”
No records. No founding date. Just echoes.
No one knows who started Dust Meridian.
Some say it was a group of ex-UEE dropship pilots who walked away from a mission they weren’t meant to survive. Others whisper it began with a smuggler who kept his word even when the pay was a lie.
The only thing anyone agrees on is this: the Dust doesn’t recruit. It remembers.
Over the years, sightings began. Ships with no tags, no names, moving like they knew every unmarked path through dead space. Crews that never spoke, never showed their faces, but always delivered what the contract asked – and nothing more.
Sometimes the job was clean. Sometimes it wasn’t.
But when Dust Meridian took the contract, it got done.
Fast. Precise. Brutal if needed.
Not for fame. Not for flags.
Just for the job – and the code.
Now, their name drifts through backchannel comms and spacer bars like static:
Dust Meridian.
Not a crew. Not an army.
A rumor. A memory. A line in the sand you don’t cross unless you’re ready to pay.
We are free.
We do contracts.
We move things.
We shoot things.
We blow shit up.
We fly spaceships.
Some even wear hats.
Our intentions are simple:
Get the job.
Ride it through.
Leave nothing unfinished.
DUST MERIDIAN – CHARTER
“No flags. No gods. Just the job.”
1. Purpose
Dust Meridian ain’t about orders.
It’s about knowing the count before the breach, and trusting the ones standing beside you when the smoke rolls in.
We don’t run chains of command – we run the numbers.
2. Membership
The Dust doesn’t recruit. It remembers.
New members aren’t invited. They’re watched.
If a prospect walks the path long enough and bleeds clean, the Dust may call them.
All Dust wear the mask.
Identities are kept private when operating in Dust name.
Callsigns are earned, not chosen.
No hierarchy. Only respect.
Respect is measured in skill, knowledge, and achievement.
Take a job. Hire a crew. And if you’re gonna lead, you’d better know when to listen.
3. Code of the Dust (The Ride)
Deliver what was agreed.
Leave no Dust behind. Dead or alive.
Your work should echo, not your name.
Don’t lie to the Dust.
We serve no flag, no face. Just the contract – and the ride.
4. Operational Principles
Interpretation is action.
A contract is only as clear as the one reading it. If the terms are vague, the Dust makes the call – and carries the weight.
Speed is silence.
We move quick, we keep low. Loud is just a phase.
Solo or crew, do the job.
If you can’t ride it through, don’t saddle up.
Shit happens – keep moving.
Once the ride starts, hesitation kills more than bullets ever will.
5. Symbols & Tokens
The Dust Mark.
Given after a clean run. Always worn. No speeches. No applause. Just a memory that stays visible.
The Echo Drop.
When a Dust falls, a signal goes out. No names. No tears. Just proof it happened – and where.
The Grave.
Every Dust picks a place in the verse. A ridge. A rock. A moon no one visits. That’s where you go, if one of us brings you home.
6. Burned
Burned means broken.
You lied. You ran. You took the Dust for granted.
You’re not chased.
You’re not mentioned.
But the verse remembers.
