History

Origins

The Knights of Zion were founded in the early days of jump point exploration, born from a shared vision of creating an organization rooted in honor, integrity, and camaraderie. The founders, a group of seasoned pilots and explorers, saw an opportunity to build a community that stood apart from the rest. They envisioned a place where friendship and honor were paramount, and where members could find support and encouragement in their journey through the stars.

Early Days

In the beginning, the Knights of Zion started as a small group of like-minded individuals. They embarked on exploratory missions, trading ventures, and combat operations, quickly earning a reputation for their honorable conduct and teamwork. Despite their size, they made a significant impact in the verse, forging alliances and earning the respect of other organizations.

Growth and Expansion

As word of the Knights of Zion’s values and successes spread, more pilots and adventurers were drawn to their ranks. The organization grew steadily, attracting members who shared their commitment to honor and integrity. This period of growth saw the Knights of Zion expanding their operations to include large-scale mining expeditions, mercenary work, and humanitarian missions.

The Battle of Vega and the Fall

One of the most defining moments in the history of the Knights of Zion was the Battle of Vega. Determined to help the UEE defend the Vega system from a major Vanduul incursion, the Knights of Zion fought valiantly. However, their commitment to helping others came at a great cost. Many members were lost in the fierce battles, and the organization suffered a significant blow. This tragic event marked the fall of the Knights of Zion, as the remaining members struggled to keep the org alive amidst the heavy losses.

The Revival

For years, the legacy of the Knights of Zion lay dormant, remembered only in stories and memories of the past. This changed in the year 2950, when Jack Logen, a descendant of the original founders, decided to resurrect the organization. Driven by a desire to honor his ancestors and restore the Knights of Zion to their former glory, Jack began the arduous task of rebuilding the org. He reached out to former members and new recruits alike, sharing his vision of a revitalized Knights of Zion.
