“Strike a deal, or strike them down.”
Orion’s Legion was born in the shadows of betrayal and ambition. The once-promising Black Sky Military Corporation had become a vessel of tyranny, its leader intoxicated by power, demanding absolute obedience. Any who dared question his increasingly erratic commands were met with threats of demotion, or worse.
Disillusioned and unwilling to stand by as madness consumed the corporation, Fallentoast, the second-in-command and once-loyal admiral, made a bold decision. Rallying those who still held onto their principles, he splintered away from Black Sky, taking with him the best and brightest.
In the chaos that followed, Orion’s Legion emerged—an organization forged in the fires of rebellion, but tempered by a keen sense of opportunity. While its foundation is built on trade, the Legion is far from innocent. They navigate the thin line between legality and lawlessness, always ready to seize an opportunity to profit from the darker side of the universe.
Orion’s Legion isn’t just another trade guild; it’s a brotherhood of those who value freedom, cunning, and the thrill of the chase. They don’t seek conflict, but when the choice is between profit and morality, they will always choose the path that leads to the most lucrative outcome, no matter how dangerous or illegal.
We Are the Unbound
Orion’s Legion was forged in the fires of rebellion, born from the ashes of tyranny. We are the unshackled, the defiant, and the free. We reject the chains of oppressive leadership, where power corrupts and blinds. We stand as a testament to those who refuse to kneel, to those who dare to carve their own path in the vast expanse of the cosmos.
Honor Among the Ambitious
Our creed is simple: We are traders by necessity, pirates by choice. The galaxy is a place of endless opportunity, and we will not be confined by the narrow definitions of legality. We value honor, but only among those who share our ambition. We do not seek to provoke, but neither do we cower from the prospect of conflict. When faced with the choice between profit and morality, we choose profit, for it is through wealth that true freedom is obtained.
Unity in Defiance
Orion’s Legion is more than just an organization; it is a brotherhood. We are bound not by the rigid laws of corrupt empires or by the whims of power-mad leaders, but by a mutual respect for one another’s skills and the pursuit of our shared goals. We welcome those who can think for themselves, who are resourceful, and who understand that in this universe, survival is a matter of wits and will.
Profit Without Prejudice
We recognize that the universe is not black and white but a vast spectrum of possibilities. We operate in the gray, exploiting every opportunity to advance our cause. Whether through trade, smuggling, or more daring enterprises, we do not discriminate in our pursuit of profit. Every credit we earn is a step closer to true independence, and every deal we make strengthens our hold on the galaxy’s future.
Against Tyranny, Forever
Orion’s Legion stands as a bulwark against the tyranny of those who would impose their will upon us. We do not seek to rule over others, but neither will we be ruled. We are the last line of defense against those who would see freedom extinguished, and we will fight to ensure that the light of liberty never fades from the stars.
Join the Legion, Embrace the Void
To those who seek freedom, who hunger for wealth, and who long for the thrill of the unknown, we say this: The stars are your birthright. Orion’s Legion offers you the chance to claim it. Join us, and together we will navigate the void, not as servants, but as masters of our own destiny.
Rule 1: Unity Above All
Internal conflict weakens us all. There shall be no pointless fighting among members. Disputes will be resolved swiftly and with respect, for we are a brotherhood bound by shared goals and mutual respect. Our strength lies in our unity—divided, we fall.
Rule 2: Profit with Purpose
Profits are to be distributed based on the financial risk taken and the value of the services provided. For example, a full Drake Caterpillar haul of RMC yielding 1 million credits should see 200-400k allocated to security, ensuring the safety of our investments. Those who take greater risks or provide crucial services will be compensated accordingly. Fairness ensures loyalty and prosperity.
Rule 3: Flexibility in Agreement
The above rule may be waived if all parties involved reach a different agreement. Flexibility is key in the ever-changing landscape of the galaxy. We trust in the judgment of our members to strike deals that benefit all involved.
Rule 4: The Pursuit of Wealth
Our primary objective is simple: make money. By whatever means necessary—be it trade, smuggling, or more daring ventures—we exist to amass wealth and secure our freedom. Every credit earned is a step closer to true independence. Never lose sight of this goal, for it is the reason we fly under the banner of Orion’s Legion.
