Who we are: The Blackwater Legion is a very unique organization. We do not simply do events, training, nor do we simply plunder. What we do share are our goals. Where we differ are our means of obtaining it. We all have one thing in common — a team.



History

h2. What we intend to offer to our members:

We believe that the reward of one’s labor should not be confined to a wire transfer of UEE credit. Rather, it should be in many resources. By lending yourself to our organization, you are obtaining bonuses by inserting yourself into a self-fulfilling life cycle. What do we have to offer?

  1. A network of spies, well-paid contractors whose skills are essential to operations. These spies provide the intelligence, numbers, and specialty to allow the impossible to be achieved. In addition, any recruit may become a spy. Any member of our organization, in good standing, shall receive the opportunity to show their merit in the field. A career as a spy is lucrative, rewarding, and invaluable.
  1. Aerial and infantry support. We are able to provide this due to the fact that those who benefit must also contribute. Therefore, if you are ever in daunting trouble, call upon us for assistance. We will assist you in combat, negotiation, finances, or otherwise.
  1. Well-established connections and trade routes, established specifically for the trade of illicit goods. Whatever you may collect, we will provide every resource available to assure that you may succeed in your endeavors, legal or otherwise.
  1. Generous payment and compensation for contributions in raids, reconnaissance, logistical work, etc. In addition to many other benefits, every member receives worthy compensation for their contributions.
  1. Training, experience, and the opportunity to show your true skills. The ability to use our system to be rewarded for your unique skillset.

For centuries, our organization has operated under various guises, obtaining whatever we have sought and desired. Throughout our journey, we have encountered many victories, yet losses have not been forgone. Through precise and systematic refinery, we have fine-tuned the principles of our organization. We are not a band of pirates and looters, but a band of allies, seeking to survive in this world, relying on each other. Those who stand under us may heed, or they may fall. Those who stand above us are our allies until they stand under us. Those who stand near us may heed, or they may fall. Those who stand with us shall prosper.

Manifesto

We are not a group of bandits, nor are we a group of pirates, nor are we a group of criminals or any other label. We are a group of scavengers, military veterans, pirates and raiders, couriers, and those who oppose the system which we have been placed into. Any may join our ranks, so long as they heed our rules and demands.

We intend to collect that which is ours. To simply define a good or individual which we seek is to limit ourselves to a two-dimensional way of thought. Rather, we seek an idea. We seek that which fulfills our concepts and realities of luxury, fulfillment, and/or contentment. Whether this is a chest of golden coins, a finely-tuned CF-117 Badger Repeater, or a luxury travelling craft does not matter. We know what we desire, and will stop at nothing, for nobody to attain that ideal.
