Welcome to the Coalition of Independent Contractors! We are a vibrant community dedicated to empowering solo contractors in the universe. Here, you’ll find a supportive network that promotes collaboration, resource sharing, and exploration.
In the early 2930s, the universe was rapidly expanding, with new frontiers being explored and a growing number of independent contractors venturing into the cosmos. Many of these solo explorers found themselves struggling to navigate the complexities of trade, exploration, and survival in a landscape dominated by corporations and established factions. This burgeoning group recognized a need for collaboration and support, leading to the formation of the Coalition of Independent Contractors.
The Coalition’s roots can be traced back to informal gatherings of independent contractors who met on platforms like Spectrum and in various hangars across the Stanton system. These early gatherings were often characterized by the sharing of knowledge, tips on survival, and trading resources. The desire for a more formal organization grew as these gatherings fostered a sense of community and camaraderie among solo contractors.
In 2940, a group of dedicated individuals, inspired by the ideals of collaboration and mutual support, formalized the Coalition, establishing its core principles: independence, resource sharing, and community support. Among these founders was Altan Morrow, a visionary contractor who believed in the power of independent exploration. He recognized that solo contractors needed a robust support network to thrive in an increasingly hostile environment.
The Coalition quickly gained traction as individuals from diverse backgrounds—traders, explorers, and bounty hunters—joined forces. They began developing a framework that encouraged resource sharing, mentorship, and collaborative missions. This was particularly important in a universe where independent contractors often faced overwhelming odds against larger, organized factions.
During this time, the Coalition established its first operational hubs on planets such as Hurston and Microtech, where independent contractors could gather, share experiences, and plan their journeys. The Coalition also initiated partnerships with local factions and guilds, enhancing their members’ access to resources and information.
As the Coalition flourished, it faced significant challenges. The rise of Crusader Industries and the aggressive expansion of The Council made the competitive landscape even tougher for independent contractors. Many solo explorers struggled to secure trade routes and safety in the increasingly hostile environment.
Recognizing the need for a more structured response, the Coalition organized its first major initiative, dubbed Operation Unity, in 2947. This operation aimed to coordinate efforts among members to secure safer trading routes and share vital information regarding hostile factions. The success of Operation Unity solidified the Coalition’s reputation as a vital support network for independent contractors, proving that collaboration was key to survival.
With the successes of Operation Unity, the Coalition began expanding its reach beyond the Stanton system. Members ventured into the dangerous territories of Pyro and Nyx, bringing back crucial information and resources to share with their fellow contractors. This period of exploration allowed the Coalition to establish itself as a respected organization among the ranks of solo contractors.
During this time, the Coalition’s emphasis on exploration led to the establishment of The Exploration Initiative, which provided resources and support for independent contractors. Members shared their findings, mapped new areas, and coordinated joint exploration missions, enhancing the collective knowledge of the universe.
As of 2954, the Coalition of Independent Contractors has grown into a robust organization with thousands of members across various systems, from Terra to the newly discovered Castra. The Coalition is now known for its commitment to empowering independent contractors, offering various services, including:
