UEMC – WE ARE MINING



History

In the Beginning

The organization that would become the United Earth Mining Corporation was first founded in 2917 by the Atticus siblings, Julian, Helena and Octavius, under a different name, the Atticus Mining Corporation. It was founded with the intentions of becoming a dynamic and rapidly growing inter-planetary mining company based out of Earth, in the Sol system. Initially, seeing great success with a relatively small staff and few vessels, the original founders of the AMC began to expand the company at an exponential rate. During this time, a well-known miner, known by the nickname of Noiser, began to rise to prominence with the miners of the corporation, as was teaching the new miners how to get by in the mining game and make a profit while doing it.

As the AMC began increasing in size, Noiser and some of his colleagues, such as Belroc and Pendus, voiced concerns that the company was beginning to over-extend itself and could not control or safely patrol the areas it had laid claim to, while continuing to prospect for new mining claims. Rival mining companies had long been festering feelings of jealousy and hatred for the unexpected success of the AMC. Many of these companies were based on planets other than Earth. As a result of this, many of these rivals had the advantage due to their close proximity to many of the more profitable mining operations.

The Fall of the AMC

With his concerns being unheeded by the standing leadership, Noiser was sent away to conduct long-range scouting operations for potential new mining operations. While performing this task, Noiser identified communications between two of the AMC’s most dangerous competitors, far from their typical area of operations, the Taiiga Corporation and the Halcyon Conglomerate. These companies had made no secret of their desire for the area in which Noiser was prospecting, and for the claims of the AMC as a whole. Understanding that something was amiss with the situation, Noiser decided to investigate further and decipher their communications. What he uncovered was a plot to bankrupt the AMC and divide the resulting purchasable mining operations amongst themselves.

With this information in mind, Noiser departed and returned to the AMC headquarters on Earth where he planned to tell the leadership exactly what he had heard and who had said it. He planned to do so despite the leadership’s previous refusal to heed his advice. Unfortunately for everyone, the AMC had, as a result of its success, turned into a stagnant creature of gluttony and decadence, its leadership did not want to listen to anything that could result in a loss of profits.

Due to the refusal to heed the warnings he had presented, Noiser informed his closest allies of these latest developments and together they left the AMC, just as reports began flooding in of coordinated pirate attacks upon mining vessels and their convoys unfolding across almost all of their operations. Noiser and his allies knew the truth, and so did the AMC leadership. They just weren’t willing to do admit to their employees the truth behind the nature of the seemingly unstoppable attacks against their operations. The rumors were partially true. These were indeed pirate attacks, and they were becoming increasingly sophisticated and effective; however, the real reason behind this was that they were being paid to do so by Halcyon Conglomerate. Their ultimate goal was to disrupt the AMC’s mining and hauling infrastructure and force them to declare bankruptcy, at which point the Taiiga Corporation would buy up their mining operations and split them with Halcyon.

By the time the leadership of the AMC acknowledged what was truly happening, it was far too late. The conflict was too far gone and resulted in the AMC going bankrupt. What this meant for the company was that anyone could begin buying the claims to which the AMC had previously possessed. However, two things happened that the two rival companies didn’t account for. First, there was a resistance that had been occurring during this time led by Elijah Rockseeker, a well-known miner of the AMC, his crewmate Schrike, and some other surviving employees. Rockseeker had been maintaining contact with Noiser and coordinating small pockets of resistance in response to any attempts to purchase mining operations. Even going so far as to sabotage their own mining operations to devalue the operations in order for the rival companies to lose interest. The second, was that Noiser had been in communications with Mister Greedy, a wealthy explorer that had previously prospected and sold claims exclusively to the AMC. The two had reached an agreement wherein Greedy would fund the buyback of many AMC claims under the new leadership of Noiser. As a result of Noiser’s intuition, he had been working on this plan for quite some time and was able to be on Earth when many of the most profitable claims were put up for sale and purchase them before the rival companies even had a chance to bid on them. When all was said and done, virtually all of the AMC’s original claims and operations were now owned by Noiser.

The Rise of the UEMC

Noiser never set out to be the leader of one of the largest mining organizations of Earth, and even after going through all of this to save the company he loved, he still did not intend on being the leader. However, his former colleagues and allies that had helped him ensure that the AMC would live on and become what it is today, and with that they nominated him as the new CEO. As the new leader, his first action was to get rid of the last remnant of the Atticus legacy by renaming the company as the United Earth Mining Corporation and laying down a new charter. While still being a mainly mining corporation, the new and improved UEMC would never shy away from defending its miners and trade lanes and would diversify its operations into trading and hauling of resources.

That was not the end of the story however, the Halcyon Conglomerate and Taiiga Corporation were still very much active and could not accept this turn of events. They believed that if they moved fast enough and with enough severity they could crush the new upstart company. The believed that the new UEMC would be so disorganized that any show of hostile force would be enough to disband the company. So, instead of banking on unreliable pirates as they did in the previous assault, they relied exclusively on their smaller internal security forces. The veterans of the UEMC foresaw this attack, and with the assistance of allied organizations, countered it by striking pre-emptively deep into the areas controlled by the two rivaling companies. Seeing huge successes against the Taiiga Corporation, they soon forced the company to collapse, after which time the UEMC purchased the majority of their claims and almost doubled in size.

The Halcyon Conglomerate was not so easy to dismantle. The security forces put up a much more substantial and coordinated resistance against the UEMC’s now superior numbers and resources. A large part of this successful resistance was the ability of the Conglomerate’s hauling division to double as a militia force that was capable of resupplying friendly military forces during on-going battles. Leading the Halcyon Conglomerate’s security infrastructure and overall naval forces, was a well-respected individual by the name of Maegon Bleidd. Bleidd, however, soon realized that he was being misled by the leadership of his company, who were purely interested in preserving their own personal profits over ending the conflict and protecting their employees. Realizing this, Bleidd used his position of power and access to material within the corrupt company to persuade the employees under him to stop trading and hauling the Halcyon Conglomerate’s minerals to market, effectively crippling their income and overall military operations against the UEMC. Using this position of power, Bleidd seized control of Halcyon and opened negotiations with Noiser. The result of those negotiations was that all holdings and properties belonging to the former Halcyon Conglomerate would be integrated into the UEMC along with all former employees. In return, Bleidd would be placed in charge of all security forces within the new UEMC and a promise that the leadership would never become what they had fought against originally.

Manifesto

Life of a solo prospector is a lonely existence. This is why the company was started.

With the security of knowing there are others around to shoulder the load and watch your back, great things can be accomplished with effort, focus and a little bit of miner’s luck.
