Xeno Threat / XENOTHREAT

Xeno Threat had its beginnings during Samuel Messer’s reign.

The appearing Vanduul threat in the “West” was largely overlooked by him and his regime. There were also intelligence reports suggesting that the Banu were the ones that informed the Vanduul of humanity and were feeding them intelligence on our fleet composition and movements. As a result, a large faction of the Navy and Military known as Xeno Threat was formed which lobbied the government to take the alien threat to humanity more seriously.

In 2884 invading Vanduul forces surprised UEE forces in the Caliban system, the Navy’s 88th Squadron was annihilated, only one pilot survived. The system was finally abandoned, Orion and all other planets were harvested by the Vanduul and are still under their control. The one pilot to survive from the 88th Squadron went on to become the leader of Xeno Threat, painting the demonic skull of a Vanduul on his helmet as a reminder to never forget Caliban and never again should humanity become complacent to the threat posed by alien forces.

During Ulysses Messers Reign, Xeno Threat sided with the resistance group known as “Tide” and Fiona Messer to overthrow Ulysses and eventually Linton Messer as well. After the fall of the Messers, forces controlled by the Xi’an installed Erin Toi as the new Imperator, effectively turning the UEE into a corporate oligarchy and puppet state of the Xi’an.

Xeno Threat members were eventually forced into exile and purged from the history books.
