LAST UPDATE: 27/10/2954
UPDATE BY: SC_Dreki – Legate – Corvi Vindicta
In 2412 Alaine Viktus discovered the jump point to the system that would be known as Virgil completely by chance. Scientists identified Virgil I as the most outstanding candidate for terraforming ever discovered due to geographic characteristics and the strongest concentrations of desirable soil nutrients known to exist anywhere. Within ten years, the most rapid terraforming project in UEE history transformed Virgil I into a thriving human colony which was quickly established as the poster planet for terraforming and colonization.
By 2736 The Vanduul had devastated the Tiber system and Virgil had become the front line in a growing conflict that saw loss after loss for humanity. In 2737 the Vanduul arrived at Virgil in force and steamrolled the UEE naval presence in short order. The only redeeming aspect of this loss was the heroic action of the 214th squadron, known as The Black Crows. The Crows would launch multiple sorties into hostile space to escort civilian transport ships through the Vanduul fleet to safety, sacrificing many men and women to do so. Several of these transports made their way to the Vega system to find refuge and safety among the growing military presence there, while many more refugees would settle down and find new homes in more distant star systems to build new lives. Some of these survivors would only think of vengeance.
In 2740 a group of Virgil’s survivors banded together to form the core of what would become known as the Corvi Vindicta or Vengeance of the Crows. Taking their name in honor of the legendary Black Crows who sacrificed so many of their own to save the people of Virgil. They swore to honor the 214th’s sacrifice and ensure it was not made in vain. Since their pact, they have been bringing survivors of Vanduul raids into their fold, providing safety in numbers and establishing themselves as a self-sufficient paramilitary group who are fiercely loyal to each other and won’t shy from a fight in defense of their comrades. When not on rescue and recovery operations in the aftermath of Vanduul raids they are often gathering materials and salvage to support their own operations and outposts while stockpiling arms, munitions, and supplies for their inevitable confrontations with the Vanduul and pirate organisations. They openly share intelligence with the UEE Navy and have performed reconnaissance for them in areas of space the UEE Navy did not want to show an official presence.
As recently as 2954 Corvi Vindicta have moved into the Stanton system, taking advantage of the loose mining and salvage regulations, and undertaking a recruitment drive, looking for those who wish to strike back against the Vanduul. While on operations in Stantion, Corvi Vindicta met and opened diplomatic relations with RIP Squad, a like-minded and growing organization within Stanton. In October of 2954, the leaders of Corvi Vindicta and RIP Squad agreed to an alliance and merged their forces under a unified banner, combining their knowledge and efforts, becoming stronger than either had been previously. Since then, Corvi Vindicta has been undergoing a rebuilding process of their charter and organizational framework in preparation for the move into the Pyro system alongside their allies.
