We rose from Daymar’s dust in 2948—scarred, betrayed, and battle-born. Blackthorn Mercenaries are forged in blood and bound by loyalty. No flags. No forgiveness. Just the mission. We are the thorn in the side of the ‘verse—and we don’t break. We bury. The last thing they hear is our name.

History Manifesto Charter

History

In the arid landscapes of Daymar, a planet marked by rugged terrain and harsh winds, the seeds of the Blackthorn Mercenaries were sown in the year 2948. The planet, known for its resource scarcity and unforgiving environment, attracted a mix of desperate settlers, opportunistic traders, and those seeking a fresh start far from the influence of the UEE. It was here that a group of skilled ex-military operatives, led by a former UEE Marine named Kaelan “Blackthorn” Voss, came together, united by their shared experiences and a mutual goal: to carve out a new identity in the lawless expanse of space.The Founding Vision Kaelan, having witnessed the chaos and corruption that often accompanied military contracts, sought to create an organization that would operate on its own terms, free from the constraints of political agendas. He envisioned a mercenary group that would prioritize honor and loyalty while embracing the ever-present opportunities for bounty hunting and freelance contracts. The name “Blackthorn” symbolized resilience and tenacity—a reminder that even in the harshest environments, strength could thrive.Early Days: Survival and GrowthIn the early days, the Blackthorn Mercenaries operated out of makeshift bases across Daymar’s rugged landscape. Their initial contracts were small-scale, involving protection details for local settlers and bounty hunting for criminals hiding in the planet’s caves and cliffs. Word of their effectiveness spread quickly, and soon they began to attract skilled individuals from various backgrounds: engineers, scouts, and even former bounty hunters, all eager to join a cause that promised adventure and profit.The organization’s reputation grew, bolstered by successful operations that showcased their tactical expertise and unwavering dedication. They became known for their distinctive black uniforms adorned with a thorn emblem, which signified their commitment to their clients and a warning to those who crossed them.Expansion into the Stars As the Blackthorn Mercenaries solidified their presence on Daymar, they set their sights beyond the planet. The growing demand for their services led to the acquisition of a fleet of ships, including versatile fighters and heavier assault vessels. They began operating across the Stanton system, taking on a mix of contracts—from corporate espionage to high-profile bounty hunting missions.The organization soon established a network of contacts in the underworld, forming alliances with various factions and gaining access to valuable information. They became a formidable force, known for their ability to track down elusive targets and extract vital intelligence for their clients.The Modern Era: A Force to be Reckoned With By 2950, Blackthorn Mercenaries had cemented their status as one of the leading Private Military Organizations in the Stanton system. They adapted to the evolving landscape of warfare and bounty hunting, incorporating advanced technology and tactics into their operations. Their code of conduct, emphasizing professionalism and respect for clients, set them apart from other mercenary groups often mired in chaos and betrayal.Despite their growing power, the Blackthorn Mercenaries remained grounded in their original principles. They continued to offer services to those in need, standing as protectors of the weak while maintaining their reputation as ruthless bounty hunters. Their emblem, the black thorn, became a symbol of hope for some and a warning to others—a mark of a group that would stop at nothing to achieve their goals.Legacy and Future AspirationsAs the organization continues to thrive, the Blackthorn Mercenaries look to the future with ambition. With plans for expansion into new territories and the development of specialized units for different types of contracts, they aim to solidify their legacy as a premier military organization in the universe. Under the leadership of Kaelan Voss and his trusted commanders, the Blackthorn Mercenaries are poised to face whatever challenges lie ahead, ever ready to adapt and evolve in the vast and unpredictable expanse of space.In the annals of Star Citizen history, the Blackthorn Mercenaries will forever be remembered as a symbol of resilience, honor, and fierce independence—a force to be reckoned with in the mercenary landscape.
