Questionable Intent [QTENT] - Organizations

History

Founding (2951): Questionable Intent was established in 2951 by J Maiyara and Rex_Nihilo, dreamers turned entrepreneurs, who envisioned a self-sustaining space economy. With more jump points being discovered, allowing quicker travel between star systems, J. Maiyara and Rex_Nihilo saw an opportunity to integrate various space industries into one cohesive operation.

Early Operations (2951-2952): Questionable Intent began with a focus on asteroid mining, which allowed for the extraction of minerals. This endeavor helped fund the fledgling corporation.

Expansion into Trade (2952): Seeing the need for efficient transport of their mined resources, Questionable Intent launched its logistics arm in early 2952. While refined ore and minerals were ferried to more equitable stations, it because apparent that others were in need of goods to be transported across the Stanton universe. Taking the random mission helped fund new pursuits.

Bounty Hunting and Security (2953-2954): With the increase in piracy due to expanding trade routes, Questionable Intent formed a bounty hunting and security division. Their first major success was XenoThreat, where they successfully defended a convoy from a notorious pirate syndicate, earning them a reputation for reliability and strength.

Homesteading Ventures (2954-the present): Questionable Intent has taken the necessary steps in acquiring their first Consolidated Outland Pioneer. Once the Pioneer is delivered, Questionable Intent will start a homesteading program aimed at creating livable environments on moons and planets.
