Nation Description Born from the infernal flames of devestation and destruction, the vision of a grand federation was first visualized by a wounded soldier in the greatest depths of the torn, burnt, and destroyed streets of the once formidable grand capital of Sophoro. War had flooded the planet, armageddon had emerged at the push of a button, and now the planet was cast inside a twisted torrent of unending mass destruction. However, even when the sky was coloured red with the blood of the damned, this sole soldier stood up, even when his body no longer could support his will. Crawling forwards, it'd take him through rigorous journies, but the fact that the journy did end is obvious, because at his gravebed, this anonymous soldier, lies the immortal blessing of all those who had awakened from the nightmare. The Kasyrinian Federation's founding father is the backbone of all cultural belief in the federation, and this is solely because it was no deity, no president, no immortal transcending prophet, but a simple soldier who cast the die which'd lead to the founding of a vast collective which'd ultimately come to form one of the greatest superpowers the Galaxy presently knows of.
It is upon the values of self sacrifice, and hope, that places unity in the minds and wills of the people of Kasyran, it is the stratocracy of the Kasyrinian Federation that drives the people onwards. It is this unity which drives the citizenry to idolize the common man, to cheer on those who sacrifice their all for the well being of the federation. It is also upon this foundation that the people are easily controlled, but that might be for the better. It is upon this basis that the Federation has grown strong, upon the foolish cheer given to those who cast their lives away for the nation's betterment. It is upon the dead bodies of billions of military martyrs that the will of the federation has not only spread so far as it has, but also conquered and assimilated other trans-solar civilizations in it's path.
"Praise the soldier, bless them, for it is they who will the Kasyrinian Federation onwards unto new dawn" Sophoro-Kasyran Monument, honourary to the Lone Soldier
Nation Involvement Officially, the Kasyrinian Federation is present as a peacekeeping force, acting on 'moral highground' based on their close connections with the Anurian people long before the happenings of the conflict. However, as the raging warfare grew onwards, it became clearer and clearer to the locals that the Kasyrinians were in no desire to seek out and help those in need, leading the people to believe that the Kasyrinian Refugee camps instead serve some other, far sinister purpose. After the filming of a Kasyrinian Orbital Infantry fireteam seeking out and dragging multiple fugitives and Anurian refugee escapees from safehouses and hidden bunkers all over the planet some 50 years ago, the Kasyrinian Federation has now taken a very negative role in the public's eye. Kasyrinian involvement from the very beginning, however, was all in the name of military research and the consumption of rare natural resources. Granted, the Kasyrinian officials have well orchestrated so that their 'casus belli' still remains valid.
Primary Species Kasyr [singular], Kasyrian [plural].
Species Description Kasyrians are naturally much frailer, smaller, and less muscular than the average human. What defines them, however, is their feather-like hair, crystalline teeth, as well as their bewitchingly beautiful eyes. Their eyes can be any colour from entirely white to a fine radiance of all imagineable colours. A highly desirable trait in Kasyrian culture is to have a 'cosmic gaze', that being eyes which look much akin to the visual representation of the how you'd imagine the universe. Some even go to the lenghts of having ocular reconstruction for this to become reality, not that surgery, bioengineering, and cybernetics are very rare in the Kasyrinian Federation. It is because of this very fact that, even though the natural Kasyrian might not be much of a threat, the fact remains still that very few Kasyrians are, so called, natural nowadays. Kasyrians all between the lower class to the upper-high classes can be seen walking around with at least one type of major cybernetic or biological bodily modification.
Technology Technology, the lifeline of all military forces across the galaxy, if not the universe. Only a fool'd put technological advancement secondary to anything the world has to offer; therefore knowledge goes above all else. The Kasyrinian Federation of Trans-Stellar Nations understands this basic fact terrifyingly well, sometimes to the point of devotion. Whilst technology in the Kasyrinian Federation is advanced, all of that advance is made in the military sector, where as the public only utilizes dumbed-down military technology a couple of generations older than the current military advancements. However, there are also certain things that remain the same, albeit merely in principle. The Kasyrinian Federation is an adamant supporter of biological and cybernetic reconstruction- and whilst the military has access to much more advanced cybernetics and bioengineering techniques, the public's cybernetic and bioengineering accessibility is far from lackluster by any means. And speaking of avalibility, the weaponry avalible, it spans from railguns, lasers, kinetic weaponry, to chemical agents of all kinds. And due to the nature of the Kasyrinian, few would know what they'd unleash, or what they'd find, should they acquire a major Kasyrinian stronghold. Science performed on the field, is a motto that long has lived on in the hearts of the Kasyrinian Federation.

The Trans-Orbital Assault Divisions are the basic infantry force of the Kasyrinian Federation. They are the first boots to officially drop down to the ground, and they are the vanguard that secures the area for secondary detachments and support divisions to land once a foothold has been acquired. The 77th Trans-Orbital Assault Divisions, often called Peacekeepers, are general purpose soldiers trained in many different things beyond combat. They act as field engineers and are often tasked with creating forward operations bases to further the reach of Kasyrinian territory. However, once the beach head is secured, the trans-orbital infantry take up guarding duties around outposts, camps, and strongholds. Participating divisions of the Trans-Orbital Assault Divisions will be the 77th, 105th, 112th, 15th, and the 45th.
Basic Infantry
Officers
'Burning Men'
The brutal, effective, and efficient Ground Combat Infantry Divisions are the brute force of the Kasyrinian Federation once a stronghold has been settled in the region. It is these guys who fight back the enemies mainline forces in tactical warfare the likes the world may never hear of. The Ground Combat Infantry Divisions, or GCID, are well known for their brutish and rather inhumane combat style, and have been spotted shooting, torturing, and interrogating the local citizenry should they ever appear on the fields of battle. They do this mostly to get an upperhand against the enemy, for if anyone knows how stagnant the battle is here on Auria it is these men. The mainstay of the GCID are streamlined soldiers equipped with Omni Environmental Combat Armours (OECA), but the true terrors of the GCID are the so called 'burning men'. Whilst half of the people talking about the 'burning men' have no clue what they are, but the truth remains that these 'burning men' are elite infantry formed from the best the GCID have to offer, they then organize, and form the INFERNO detachment. Equiped to take on and operate in extreme environments, the 'burning men' are called as such only because INFERNO operators have ever been spotted whilst they happened to be on fire. Their sudden appearances and disappearances lead people to believe it's somewhat supernatural; despair leads people to think in interesting ways. Divisions taking apart in the Anuria campaign: 408th, 1209th, 4th, 90th, 117th, and the INFERNO detachment.
Due to intense heat, many INFERNO operators' armour appears to be white, but in fact, that is merely the heat burning away the colour from the armour. INFERNO operators also do not repaint their gear, because the white symbolizes the veterancy of an operator. It is a sign of respect. INFERNO operators conduct operations on a tier 2 scale, and are in direct contact with Kasyrinian Special Operations Command, and thereby High Command as well.
ARK-E Operator
MAL-R Operator
The Kasyrinian Special Operations Command, or the KASSOC, is situated on the very homeworld of the Kasyrinian Federation. However, whilst their headquarters may be far from the frontlines, their assets are always battle-ready on every military campaign the Kasyrinian Federation happens to be participating in. KASSOC deals with all Tier 1 and Tier 2 operators and operations galaxy wide, and has direct connections with KASMIHIC to ensure that all operations go as smoothly as possible. The epitome of KASSOC's assets are the Tier 1 operators. These are the military assets which you'd use to cripple key military locations and carry on a crushing blow to the enemy. It is they who operate covertly. Out of all the many tier 1 and 2 units avalible, three operator on the Auria campaign, two of which are the best operators the Kasyrinian Federation has to offer.
The ARK-E, forged from the depths of the Kasyr-Bakko war, were initially designed as a drop-unit. Whilst details on their missions remain absolutely classified under the highest of degrees, and their very existence is void, it is clear that these men have produced results worthy of mention. The ARK-E focus on orbital-drops behind enemy lines. What they do from then onwards depends highly on their mission, but their training makes them highly efficient warriors capable of producing devestating results no matter what might go wrong. The ARK-E Operators power armour is highly sophisticated, and is capable of changing colour and texture to better meld into it's surroundings. ARK-E Operators, in the public's eye, do not exist. Only KASSOC and KASMIHIC know of their existence.
The MAL-R is a division surrounded in mysteries, not because of their existence, but because they happen to be able to infiltrate enemy lines without as much as a sweat. Their successes have proved invaluable for the gathering and distribution of intelligence and fake information. Whilst they may not be as battlecapable as the elite ARK-E, these Tier 1 operators do not have to, because no one would know what just happened. MAL-R do not follow the same vow of non-existence as the ARK-E, MAL-R recieve public burrials and are allowed to talk during public events about the duties, obviously not in-depth, though.
Common Armaments
Emplacements and Deployables The majority of support modules are located in the hider below, however, there are a couple more deployables avalible to the Kasyrinian Federation; mainly being mines and their deployable barricades. Capable of being airlifted into any location, by simply dropping the structure to the ground it's programmed to extend it's walls until it comes into contact with another physical object capable of withstanding it's force. These barricades can then be mounted, guarded, and defended from enemy attacks. It's like a deployable outpost. It's made of rather heavy armour, but can still be penetrated by heavy cannon fire, however. Mines, well, they're what you expect, bloody mines.
Dropzone: Skybridge The location which initial peacekeeping forces deployed many, many years ago, and now the primary headquarter for ground forces across the entire planet. Kasyrinian Planetary Command, the mainstay of all airforce assets, and the drydocks used to unload vehicles from military space vessels all rest here. And it's quite the sight. Located in the middle of a now deserted city, the walls of Dropzone: Skybridge reach all the way around the location in a miriade of layers and towers. The headquarters is full of countless steel structures and turrets, as well as a central command and control tower which oversees all public operations across the planet. Dropzone: Skybridge not only has a massive amount of surface facilities to store weapons, keep and repair vehicles, and barrackses, no, the facilities go far further than that. Below even a single inch of sand you'd instantly see the hard multilayered concrete, revealing the fact that many more facilities lie underground. Whilst the majority of the upper sectors of the underground bunker are for barrackses and soldier housing, further down is a top-secret weapons development and military research lab. The dry-dock for the Monarch-class transports also exists within this underground complex. It sprawls with military activity, and between the base's layers are contingents of refugee camps for those who lost their homes in the conflict. Work still continues on the base, however, and there never seems to be a satisfying amount of walls, emplacements, or mines.
