Hey, kid…what’d I tell you about laser swords and hokey religions? Don’t mind the walking carpet…he’s my mechanic. Enough of that, just put the cargo in the hold and strap in. Might get a little bumpy, and if we run into trouble…well…you know what to do.
History
In ancient times, blacksmiths were thought to be mystical, able to take some of the hardest substances mankind had found and shape them into something useful. From rock, to ore, to working tool, they held a pivotal role in human development.
Cerulean Forge is an honorarium to those mystics; to those who used brain and brawn to develop and hone their skills.
The fires of the forge heat the crucible, where impurities are lifted to the surface and skimmed away. The refined ore left behind is poured into molds of our own creation. Then the forging begins, a process of heating, becoming malleable, and then shaped into its final form. At long last, the process of honing, whereby the implement is transformed from common to exceptional.
And so it is here where we live by the saying: As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

Manifesto
The Ore and the Smith: The Individual
The Forge exists to help each individual reach the potential that they aspire to.
The the Fires and into the Crucible, we are the raw, impure ore that is refined and poured into the molds we have created for ourselves.
Each of us undergo Trial by Fire, by which we become malleable. With every encounter, we are shaped. As a hammer shapes hot metal, so do we shape ourselves. However, you are not alone.
The Forge: A Brotherhood of Individuals
We are all of us made stronger through The Forging, true. As an Individual, we seek to become the best versions of ourselves. However when we are all combined…alloyed, as it were, we can achieve so much more.
Through The Forge, together we are heated again, cleaned of impurities and roughness, placed together, and with every hammer strike our different layers…our strengths as an individual…are merged and meshed with the others to create a substance far superior than its individual layers.
The Forge combines all of these things, from ore to finely honed implement, in the pursuit of helping each person reach their highest potential.
And by so doing, we all reach our potential, and by extension, The Forge becomes a force able to shape and influence the direction of the ‘verse by simply existing.
“You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.”
~ James Anthony Froude
Charter
The Forge is an organization dedicated to the many various pursuits available in Star Citizen.
Our goal is to maintain neutrality amongst factions and be a “home away from home” for any and all who seek solace and seclusion, camaraderie and the ability to “let down”.
Our purpose is to help others realize their fullest potential. Whether that’s by joining our Organization or by simply helping them along their way to other resources.
The one requirement that we insist on is this: Seek first to understand.
We all go through a learning process. For some, that process is short. For others, it is a long and hard road. We all have experienced both. Be respectful of others by seeking to first understand where they’re at in their process, and either find a way to encourage, to help, or to be silent.
If we can all abide by that, then we will all reap the benefits.
