Orbital Defence Initiative [ODIT] - Organizations

History

Once humanity began to expand into the stars, the governments of Earth slowly began to realize that, politically, the individual governments of the various Organizations wouldn’t be able to maintain themselves in the bright future ahead. It wasn’t until the year 2380 that most Organizations of Earth decided to put aside their social and political differences and unify as a single governing entity named the United Nations of Earth (UNE).

Over the next century, more and more people began to move off world and start over in freshly terraformed worlds. By the 26th century, almost 70% of the human population lived on other planets in other systems. Those living off world felt like they were not being equally represented in the government and began to petition the (UNE) for reform. Finally, in 2523, The (UNE) had to acknowledge the off world citizens petitions for reform and responded, They established a new off world Organization, which was christened Orbital Defence Initiative. (O.D.I.T)

But not all citizens were happy with the outcome. As a result new independent organizations are being Formed and alliances being made all with the same goal to create a thriving community. This could cause Problems for Orbital Defence Initiative in the long term. As organizations grow so does the demand for Resources which in time will cause conflicts. Obstacles in which Orbital Defence Initiative will have to overcome to achieve their goals.

Orbital Defence Initiative vowed to purge itself of all bureaucratic corruption and remain pure to a single task. To unite all its citizens and To unify the once great Empire that is now splintered. By any and all means necessary.

The average Orbital Defence Initiative citizen is not too different from a 21st century Earth citizen. They are Engineers, Traders, Builders, Miners, and Combat Pilots. They desire stability and order, but their ideas on how this should be achieved vary widely. Each has his own opinion on how the government should achieve its goals and whether or not Orbital Defence Initiative even has the right to try and restore something that failed so long ago. Ancient religions are as varied and diverse as they were in pre-war days and continue to be a motivating factor.

Even if individuals differ in their political or social perspectives, the single most common trait shared by every Orbital Defence Initiative citizen is their sense of brotherhood and community. Orbital Defence Initiative citizens really band together when times are tough. Positively contributing to society and personal improvement is a way of life for Orbital Defence Initiative citizens and would not want it any other way.

Orbital Defence Initiative rulers are expansive, aggressive, and authoritarian. They believe that this is necessary to ensure galactic order and the common good. They are attempting to rebuild the Empire that fell at the onset of the Vanduul Wars, and with memory of such dark times still present all around them, Orbital Defence Initiative leaders can be driven to justify extreme measures.

What are Orbital Defence Initiatives aims and goals?

Orbital Defence Initiative is primarily a Freelancing and Security Organization. But we also aim to specialise in Mining, Production and the trading of Trade Goods and Player Produced goods.
We want to be self-sufficient the state of not requiring any aid, support, or interaction,from around the verse.

We aim to have a controllable number of active members to start with (70-100) so we do not lose a sense of community that bigger corps can suffer from. Both new and experienced Star citizen players are welcome – we do not have any minimum requirements. New players will be given advice and assistance in the game.

We hope to have an employment structure in place as well as divisions each with their own Leadership

• Mining
• Production
• Trading
• Security
• Personnel
• Engineering
• Freelancing

We have vacancies for assistants for those interested in particular careers. Each level of membership within the corp i.e. Freelance, Divisional, Worker, Manager or Director attracts a percentage discount when purchasing from the corporation.

We hope to have a competent security division to cope with protection for low security/freelance operations and for small/medium war declarations this is another long term goal we are looking to strengthen.

What we hope to offer our members:

Opportunity to be part of an active group of adult gamers who share similar interests and goals
Access to pvp and the logistics/resources to support our members in Corp Operations

Use Teamspeak, have a working headset, and actively participate with members when ingame and online
