An enemy of the Corporations, the Order of the Dragonfly is a religious faction of the open source movement. Empowered by religious fanaticism, the Order are willing to utilize both legal and illegal means to explore where they want, trade what they want, and build what they want.



History

Centuries ago corporations suppressed individuals to prevent them from creating and using their own creations. Many individuals banded together to fight the oppression of the corporations. This was known as the Open-Source Movement.

The Movement disliked how corporations controlled the markets, lowering the quality of products and reducing individual freedoms. The Movement wanted to have quality, security, and freedom.

With the expansion into space, a faction within the Open-Source Movement saw its chance to break free of the corporations. And so, the Order of the Dragonfly was born.

By 2944, the dangers of space forced the widespread adoption of Open-Source technology. This Movement’s success led many to retire from the Movement. Now, corporations are returning and may very well attempt to reclaim their iron grips on technology.

For the Order of the Dragonfly, the war has not ended nor will it ever end. Corporations and those who seek control will always sprout up like weeds. The Order of the Dragonfly is always watching and always waiting to pluck those weeds from the gardens of space.
