New Eden Emergency Authority

New Eden Emergency Authority

"If your nation has a flavor quote/motto, it goes here"

Government Form:
Authoritarian Military Dictatorship

Population:
Approximately 2.5 Billion

What is humanity?:
To the average Edenian, such philosophical pondering would be seen as useless at best and offensive at worst. The average Edenian would be far too busy worrying about environmental hazards and making ends meat rather than spending time on thought provoking questions. However if one was able to able to get an answer, most Edenians would agree that "Humanity" is the indomitable will to survive. Of course in the hellscape that is New Eden, this seemingly positive message is twisted into an extremely pessimistic ideology.

Living in the shadow of nuclear conflict and generations of war, the will to survive became an individualistic drive. One where any and all actions taken to survive is not only seen as necessary but wholly justified.

Planet/System Name and Description: The New Eden Emergency Authority, as the name implies, resides in the planet of New Eden. Before the sudden lost of Earth, New Eden was extensively and meticulously terraform to resemble Earth. After its fiery nuclear war, the planet is but a shadow of its former self. Once lush and verdant biospheres are now reduced to barren, radioactive soil barely able to sustain any life. Only 30% or so of the planet's surface is fit for Human habitation.

Demographics: _{(For talking about how much of the population belongs to different groups/ethnicities/religions/whatever. This space can also be used for describing genetic/cybernetic modifications your people have done, subspecies that have been created, aliens that may have been integrated, and so on.)}

History:
The colonization of the planet that would be known as New Eden was Earth's most ambitious project at the time. A planet simply classified as #387224 was discovered by Earth's earliest exploration teams. Its importance wasn't discovered until another exploration, this time with more extensive and sensitive equipment, arrived a few years after. Planet #387224 was discovered to have properties shockingly similar to Earth. Its gravity, water levels, sea level pressure and other planetary features were similar to Earth. In fact the only thing keeping the exploration team from taking off their environmental suits was the lack of oxygen in planet #387224's atmosphere.

When news of planet #387224 reached Earth, it quickly entered the public consciousness when scientist, politicians and other interested parties argued over what to do with it. Soon enough there were two popular main camps of thought over the planet. One that argued that planet #387224 should be left untouched and turned into a nature reserve. The other argued that planet #387224 should be turned into Humanity's first attempt to settle a new world off in the stars. The debate over the planet became heated at times and the public's opinion shifted one way or the other. However the colonization of a new planet became more and more popular by the day.

A new name was chosen for Humanity's next mega project. Planet #387224 would be renamed as New Eden and so would the ambitious program to terraform it. Multinational conferences and treaties would be made. The brightest minds and the largest entities, both private and public, pitches their knowledge and resources into the massive endeavor. It would take decades of hard work and controversy but New Eden would be turned into a planet similar to Earth. In some aspects, like the duplication of several natural landmarks on Earth, almost a carbon copy.

The colonization of New Eden became a very publicized event. People were encouraged to move to the planet with seemingly endless ad campaigns. New Eden was touted as an untouched paradise just waiting for new people to experience all its wonders. Millions would apply to become New Eden's first residents. Entire cities grew seemingly overnight on the planet's surface. Five districts were made to administer the five continents on the planet's surface. On paper every nation that participated in the New Eden project had authority over every district. In practice however the five largest and most powerful nations on Earth governed each of the districts.

Jurisdiction over the districts were becoming an increasingly divisively issue on New Eden. There were calls for New Eden to become more autonomous from the oversight of Earth. Others outright demanded independence. However these requests were largely ignored on Earth, which itself was suffering from its own bouts of instability and chaos. The five districts, which were supposed to be temporary administrative bodies, became more and more restrictive. Hard borders were enforced and each district began implementing laws mirroring their mother nations on Earth. As on Earth, tensions grew between these districts.

These growing inter-district rivalries became worst when

Military Overview:

Mercenaries

With Premier Chang yet to appoint an official successor in the time of his death, which many are noting could be coming soon because of his advanced age and declining health, his five district governors are gearing up for the eventuality of a civil war. They have the conventional armed forces of their districts to amass as well as special forces that they have kept exclusively to themselves. These warriors are veterans of the Unification war and are battle hardened and tested. They are usually on average older than the fresh faced recruits of the NEEA.

The district governors are ready to lend these soldiers to the galactic community for a price. Each of them are listed below.

Freelancer's Legion

Back before joining then General Chang's Unification war, then self proclaimed Colonel Jessica Adebisi was the head of the Freelancer Corps. The Freelancer Corps was a mix of seasoned soldiers and brigands all forced to exist with one another to survive. They were a notoriously violent group who raided settlements and surviving towns for anything of value. Those who resisted were brutalized and killed. Then general Chang would recruit the roving band under his command. Then he sent Colonel Adebisi and her Freelancers to the city of New Aleppo. According to some accounts, the general Chang sent the Freelancers to the battle as cannon fodder so that his more experienced soldiers can clean up what remained. Much to his surprise however, the Freelancers did incredibly well. Taking parts of the ruined city and setting up a staging area for the rest of Chang's forces.

In the current time, the Freelancers are the largest and most well equipped out of the five paramilitary forces. Indeed they are the size of an actual army, a million strong. The Freelancers make use of their numbers and equipment to its full potential. In combat they exercise combined arms tactics with each miniature branches of the Freelancer's Legion coordinating their actions with extreme precision. Premier Chang uses the Freelancer's Legion as an elite army he can field when his other forces have failed him. During the Fortitude City Uprising, when two army groups couldn't dislodge Fortitude City rebels from their positions, Premier Chang sent now District Governor Adebisi and her Freelancers to destroy them. After a month of fighting, the rebels were effectively crushed and dispersed.

Hyperion Group

The Hyperion Group was a small organization of former Haiyangian special forces that offered their services to then General Chang. The group was and still is led by some extent by the infamous Daichi Nakamura. Nakamura was a lieutenant colonel before retiring from Haiyagang Rangers. After he retired, he recruited individuals with similar military training and expertise has he did and offered their services to wealthy clientele. Often enough this involved fighting off brigands and raiders in the regions that the Haiyangan military couldn't effectively control. This would lead them to fighting skirmishes with the encroaching general Chang. After a few battles, Nakamura decided it would be more beneficial to join with the rising general rather than fighting him.

After joining in with general Chang, one of his most closest officers, one Andrej Petrovic, saw their potential. With his close personal friendship with one another, Peotrovic convinced Chang to give the mercenaries the best equipment he could procure.

City In Flames: A Night City Story

Requisition Strike Force Meeting Room
40th Floor, Militech Offices
Night City, North America

The week was painfully slow for the repo men. The last job they had was going after a bunch of Raffans who were running Militech knock-offs through the border. It wasn’t even their jurisdiction but Moore took up the job because the team had no assignments for a few days prior. Moore and her team got to their hideout, expecting a fire fight at least but it was as silent as a graveyard. The rundown shack in the middle of nowhere revealed five nomads. Four were dead from overdosing on glitter. The last was barely alive and choking. Moore knew she couldn’t even book the bastard so she finished up tagging the contraband, loading them into their truck and then she rang NCPD to tell them about this particular Raffan hideout. That was yesterday. A lot could change in a day.

Two hours after Moore got off from work, one of their transport convoys in Watson got hit. From what Moore initially heard, it was bad. Murmurs from different department heads about the “great fuck up”. Apparently somebody in Internal Transportation was getting axed. Four other people were under internal investigation. While eating her breakfast, Moore tried to make sense of the flood of chatter going through the corp’s net. Apparently one of their convoys was hit last night. Somewhere in Watson. That was everything she was able to confirm. She called her sergeants and her analyst to their meeting room that morning. She wanted to know more about the incident.

Moore found herself waiting for everyone else at their meeting room. It was three minutes after 10 in the morning. Moore herself was sipping on a fresh brew of coffee while looking out at corporate plaza. It seemed like another bright and sunny day for Night city. Her eyes were fixed on the building opposite theirs. Arasaka Tower, or at least what used to be Arasaka Tower. Gleaming in the sunlight as it usually did. A monolith of glass, steel and concrete. For a while Moore wondered what her life would be like if she or her parents had joined Arasaka rather than Militech. Would there truly be a difference? Moore knew of a couple of new recruits who used to be Saka’. Maybe that's where she’d be now. Down 30 flights of stairs at the corporate barracks, starting out fresh working for the competition.

Her train of thought was interrupted when she heard the door behind her open. “Morning chief.” A voice greeted her. Before she even turned around to see who it was, she already knew his identity. Oliver Price, one of their division’s analysts. “Price.” Moore greeted back in her usual stern and rigid tone. What her subordinates called her ‘officer voice’. Price was followed by three other people. They wore combat fatigues which contrasted with the long sleeve shirt and slack that Price was wearing and the sleek, black dress that Moore had on. The first of the three to enter was a huge figure. One would easily mistake her for a member of the Animals gang if it weren't for the Militech uniform she was wearing. She was sergeant Alex Winters. The 6’8 leader of Alpha squad. She used to be her squad’s heavy weapon’s operator until their previous sergeant got flatlined in a shootout with the Tyger Claws. Moore knew she could take the initiative if left without a proper chain of command so she immediately promoted her. Winters gave Moore a casual and informal salute. Moore returned it. Next to follow her was a woman similar to Moore’s height and build. She had a grin on her face when she saw Moore. She didn't even bother with a salute. ‘Tenant’. She greeted Moore. Moore would match her grin with a smug smirk of her own. This was Bailey Kabinsky, the leader of Charlie squad. She was actually one of the 6th Street recruits that came in after Arasaka left Night City. At first Moore did not take a liking to her and she didn't hide it. However as time went on, she grew to like the spunky and quick witted street kid. The last to enter stood in attention and gave Moore a proper salute. Crisp and formal, as if he was in the NUSA army. Moore had no choice but to return the salute in a similar manner. This was sergeant Richard Chase, the leader of Bravo squad. He was infamously known behind his back as ‘sergeant killjoy’. However there was no denying that he was an effective operative and officer, even if he was inflexible and always adamant to follow everything by the books.

They all made their way to a table at the center of the room. Moore’s eyes glowed bright blue for a split second. Then the blinds at the windows activated and dropped down. Leaving the room devoid of natural light. Price placed four shards on the table and each one of the sergeants and Moore took one. Then they all slotted the shards in their necks. It only took a split second before their optical implants displayed the information for them.

“So no use in wasting time. Let's get to it. Yesterday at 20:37, one of our convoys in Watson was ambushed.” Price explained while the shards displayed the information for them visually. “They were passing through the junction between 32nd Offshore and 12th Goldsmith street when a truck crashed into the lead element of the convoy.” Their visual displays would present a truck ramming to the lead armored car of the convoy and exploding.

“Kaukaz Bratsk U42020.” Chase noted. Moore looked up the truck on her agent and found that it was the exact same. “Never knew you were into heavy machinery Rich.” Kabinsky would go on to say but it didn't elicit any response for her fellow officer. Price would continue with the presentation. The shard would then display three behemoth transport trucks. Chase didn’t have to name this vehicle. All of them were well aware of the behemoth. The standard cargo transport of Militech that’s been in service since 2070. The first truck crashed into the burning wreck, the second one pumped their brakes hard and just about almost hit the first and the third swerved into the sidewalk. After which a huge figure with some sort of hydraulic ram walked up to the first truck. It ripped apart the armored side like it was made of paper. Several containers poured out.

Kabinsky whistled. “Now that’s a jackpot. We could only dream of a score like that back when I was still on the streets.”

“Who’d be stupid enough to klep from us of all people?” Winters asked.

It would be the streetwise Kabinsky who would answer her question. “There’s only one gang in Watson that’s crazy enough to steal from us. Those psycho Maelstromers.”

Price zoomed in on one of the ambushers. Classic maelstrom implants on his face. His red visors were more than enough to clear up who they were. Recently it’s been the Tyger Claws that were giving Militech trouble. Over the past few years, it seemed like they went to war with just about everyone. A good number of Moore’s assignments had been locating and repossessing former Arasaka gear from Tyger Claw hideouts. It seems like Maelstrom wanted in on the action too. The rest of the presentation showed several Militech soldiers trying to dodge for cover and assemble into formations. However they were surprised, dazed and scattered. The gangoons picked them off easily enough. “A response team came in 20 minutes after. Not many of our guys made it out alive.”

There was a bitter ambience that lingered in the air. This didn’t seem like just another assignment now, it seemed like this was personal. A direct challenge not just to the company but to each of them individually. For a few seconds there was some silence in the room as they all digested what they just saw. It was Chase that broke the silence.

“Do we have the manifest for the convoy?” He asked. ‘A good question.’ Moore thought to herself. They needed to know what exactly was stolen. It could make tracking the people who stole from them that much easier to find. However, Price had some bad news for them.

“That’s the thing. Either the manifest got lost or somebody upstairs doesn’t want them released. I’ve been asking for it, people from Securities have been asking for it and I just walked past Cassey from Insurance who asked for it. Either Internal Investigation is keeping it for themselves or there’s something in those crates that cost a lot of eddies.”

Moore took out the shard in her neck. Her direct eyesight came back and he immediately pointed her gaze at Price. Giving him a look of intrigue and curiosity. Moore was no stranger to corporate politics and she knew there was something here that wasn’t quite right. Secrets within the company always piqued her curiosity. An itch that she desperately needed to scratch. The sergeants started to remove their shards too. Moore was quick to give them orders.

“Drill your teams in urban warfare training. Heavy emphasis on room to room clearing. When we go after Maelstrom, it’s probably going to be in a Northside neighborhood. No different than our Little China assignments. Expect us to be deployed soon. Dismissed.” All three of her sergeants gave proper salutes, even the occasionally insubordinate Kabinsky. They then exited the room in an orderly fashion.

Price stayed in the room. He sensed that Moore had something on her mind. As an analyst, he had more leeway to speak his mind. “What now?” He asked Moore who was deep in thought, staring at the shard she just took out of her neck.

Moore took a few moments to give an answer. “You keep finding out more about this. I’ll do the same. I’ll visit Wu at 88 and try to squeeze more information out of this.” Moore informed him. Jacquelin “Jackie” Wu was the head of Militech’s private net maintenance. That meant she had access to copies of data that may have been deleted. If there’s a copy of the manifest out there, it would be at Wu’s office.

Equipment:

• Militech M251s Ajax
• Militech M-76e Omaha
• Militech Neotac Pants
• Militech Nanofiber Shirt
• Militech Thermoset Military Field Jacket
• Militech Combat Boots

Biography:
Gillian Moore comes from a long line of service men and women. Her great, great grandfather fought in the Second World War, her great grandfather in Vietnam, grandfather in Colombia and both her parents in the Fourth Corporate war. However at an early age, Gillian seemed determined to set a different path for herself. She was born in the city of Washington D.C. in 2034. She was the third child of Paul and Laura Moore. Both Paul and Laura held high ranking positions within Militech. This meant that Gillian would grow up comfortably under a corporate life. At this time her father Paul would try to persuade her to follow in his footsteps and have her join the Militech private contracting firm. However Gillian didn’t particularly like the idea. Instead she would have preferred a, according to her opinion at the time, less dangerous and more glamorous life working in Militch’s offices.

In school she would find herself struggling. She wasn’t failing her academic classes but she wasn’t excelling either. Instead she would find more success in athletics. She would repeatedly find herself as the star athlete of her academies. She also found herself the figurehead of her peers. Her natural born charisma made her fellows flock to her. As such, even though she may not have been the brightest in her batch, she still became the most popular.

After graduation, Gillian would finally try her hands at the corporate world. Both her parents used their connections to get her a comfortable position. Unfortunately for Gillian, the department head never took a liking to her. Just within a few months of getting the position, she would be replaced. Completely disheartened, Gillian would resign without telling her parents. For a time Gillian tried to find another way into Militech without the help of her parents. Exhausting every option, Gillian found her way to the Militech paramilitary wing. At first Gillian was completely disgusted by the actions she had to take to get back into Militech. However she slowly began to enjoy the soldier’s life.

Gillian came back to her parents a Militech private. Surprising them both by her seemingly sudden shift in attitude. Nonetheless her father was more than joyful at the change of developments and showed how proud he was of her daughter, motivating Gillian even more to stay with the course she was following. Which would see her fighting in the Unification war. Rosalind Myer’s war proved to be Gillian’s path to success. She would excel on the battlefield. She also used her charisma to effectively rally together her comrades in the heat of battle. She rose through the ranks during the war. She took to commanding troops with ease and proved effective in taking tactical decisions. Her shining moment was rescuing a down Basilisk transport crew while surrounded by enemy nomads. She managed to rescue the crew without sustaining any casualties to her squad. Because of this she was instituted as a lieutenant.

During the final days of the Unification war, Gillian was stationed in Night City under the command of Colonel Kurt Hansen. It was only by sheer luck that her platoon was cycled away from what would eventually become known as Dogtown. Instead she was stationed in Militech HQ, where she still currently reports to. Gillian would be put in charge of Militech’s Requisition Strike Force department following the war. Popularly known as “repo men” inside of Militech, the purpose of the department was to acquire objects and/or individuals from other parties. Either for paying clients or for Militech itself. Usually the other parties involved were armed and dangerous, like Night City gangoons or rival corporations. Again Gillian’s charisma, athletics and her developing tactical competence benefitted Militech greatly. She was known for her ruthless but clinical efficiency. Having her team swoop in and complete their mission with as little time and lives lost as possible. It’s heavily rumored that it was her team involved in stealing an Arasaka medical truck from their dock, though Militech officials have repeatedly denied this.

Following Arasaka’s exit from Night City, Gillian’s department has been busy acquiring the left behind assets of Arasaka. Often competing with gangs and mercs, the department often finds itself in increasingly heated gunfights over containers of valuable items. Gillian still leads from the field, now finding the office life much too mundane for liking. She and her team are getting more and more reputation and infamy for their actions. Only growing in recognition with each day that passes.

Smiling Jack

Name: Jacob “Smiling Jack” Hughes

Age: 41

Looks:


Personality: As his nickname implies, Hughes is almost always seen with a smile on his face. He is known to have a cheerful and jolly personality. When not engaged in combat he is known for being laid back and cordial. Even those that only met him could expect a warm greeting from the man, even though opposed to his ideology.

However this genial attitude has been observed in situations where it would be considered bad taste. In fact Hughes has openly admitted to relishing combat. His joyful inclination is on full show when he is in a gunfight. Hughes cracks jokes and makes banters with his troops while exchanging gunfire. He is also known to savor inflicting acts of cruelty on his enemies, specially after combat. So much so that he had been accused several times of violating multiple laws in the NCR. It is only because of Greene’s financial and political capital that Hughes has not been convicted yet.

Faction: Black Falcon Group

S.P.E.C.I.A.L
Strength: 6
Perception: 7
Endurance: 5
Charisma: 5
Intelligence: 6
Agility: 8
Luck: 5

Backstory: Following the assassination of Kimball and the victory at the Hoover dam, a vocal minority began to grow in the NCR. A group of people who felt that the Legion threat needed to be destroyed at its core. That Legion should have been eradicated while they were weak and scattered. That anyone in the Mojave and elsewhere that didn’t support the New Californian state was an existential enemy. That anyone who was not with the NCR should be shot. This wave of ultranationalism only seemed to grow stronger when the Chosen One enacted several reforms that seemed to curtail the bloated NCR armed forces. Many saw this as a betrayal of those who died at the dam. Specially since the NCR never pursued the Legion beyond the dam itself.

Former Major Jacob Hughes was present during the second battle of the Hoover dam. Hughes and his company were tasked with holding the surface of the dam against waves against waves of legionaries. At the end of the day, the Republic held and won against the Legion. However the victory came at a very steep prize. Only Hughes and former Junior Lieutenant Kelly Winters were the only officers to survive. Only 14 troopers survived the battle all in all. Winters needed an amputation and Hughes was close to absolute exhaustion. Both were awarded for their bravery. Winters was discharged from the Army because of her injuries. Hughes officially retired following that. The pair did not stay idle though. Hughes managed to convince Winters to move to the Hub. There the two would form their own mercenary group. From that moment on, the Black Falcons group was formed. It was named after Hughes and Winters favorite bar in the Hub, the Maltese Falcon. Hughes was far from the first to offer such services. However many clients found themselves favoring him over other mercs because of Hughes’ disarming personality.

It was also during this time that Hughes first flirted with ultranationalist ideology. Hughes found himself intermingling with the Patriot’s Club, a veteran’s organization that called for more militarization and the complete military occupation of the Mojave. The organization was headed by Rick Sanchez, a ghoul gentleman who spoke effectively to the angst and disappointment felt by NCR vets. Sanchez and Hughes would work together afterwards. With Sanchez bringing Hughes new recruits for his growing outfit and the charismatic Hughes speaking for the Patriot’s Club. Eventually Sanchez would introduce Hughes to one Gerry Greene. Greene was a very influential water baron who was close friends with the late Andrew Kimball. In fact Greene had a catering service that Kimball often used for both public and private functions. This earned Greene the nickname “Kimball’s Chef”. Greene contracted Hughes to protect his caravans going through and from the Mojave. Greene would also use the Black Falcons for less savory operations. Such as putting down worker’s strikes and sabotaging his rivals.

The Black Falcons only continued to grow in size, bringing in more income for Hughes. However Hughes found himself more and more dissatisfied with his success. Hughes found himself having to deal with more and more paperwork. Often spending days inside his office. He enjoyed being outside and fighting. The bureaucratic workings of the mercenary company brought him no joy. That was when Greene offered him a proposal. Greene would become his business partner. Greene would handle the administrative operations of the company while Hughes would lead from the field. Hughes was only more than happy to accept. Following their partnership, Hughes now found himself more and more in the Mojave. At first he continued his job guarding caravans in the Mojave. Often against the Fiends. Sometimes they were Greene’s water caravans, other times they were Crimson Caravans. Then he found himself on security details again. Escorting prominent NCR politicians around the Mojave. However the job he favored the most was jobs that guaranteed combat.

One engagement in particular brought the Black Falcons into the NCR’s public consciousness. The Talons were contracted to support the NCR Army in a raid against the Fiends. After a particularly bloody battle, only a few Fiends were left alive. Most were in critical condition. Hughes took a picture with one of the Fiends who lost an arm. He held her by her hair and raised her head for the camera. Like a hunter showing off their trophy catch. The pictures somehow found their way into the NCR media. Almost overnight, Smiling Jack and the Black Falcons became infamous back home in California. Specially after several journalists began to discover the brutal and near sadistic methods the Falcons use during and after a battle. Hughes didn’t mind all the extra attention. In fact Hughes would be the person responsible for inviting these journalists with him out on Black Falcon operations. Often he would display the sheer brutality of his group with a smile on his face. Ever since Hughes has been a polarizing figure back in California. To some people, he is seen as a rabid extremist. No better than the Legion in practice and ideology. To others he is seen as a hero. Doing necessary evils to protect the Republic from the Legion and other powers that threaten it. As for Hughes, he couldn't be bothered less with his image. He continues to do what he believes is right in the Mojave and enjoys the fact that he's getting paid handsomely for it.

Black Falcons

Faction Name: Black Falcons Security Group


Black Falcons Officer Uniform


Black Falcons Private/Specialist Uniform
(Original source for the uniforms.)

Faction Leader: Functionally Jacob Hughes, though the company itself is a partnership between himself and Gerry Greene.

Are they Canon?: No

Numbers: 200, about 140 are field agents. The rest are bureaucratic staff. This is the maximum number allowed by the NCR government at the time.

Tech Level: The Black Falcons enjoy the same equipment and necessities as the NCR army. This equipment comes from those who sympathize with Hughes's ideology as well as Greene's political connections. However the Black Falcons also have the luxury of choosing from other suppliers, such as the Crimson Caravans and the Gun Runners. For example, a Black Falcons Squad employs a machine gunner who often uses a Saw Light Machine Gun. A weapon not openly available to the NCR military but is sold by the Gun Runners.

Location(s): The Black Falcon's Headquarter office and camp is in Freeside. In front of the King's School of Impersonation. Hughes had the building renovated in 2287, as the Black Falcons became more and more involved in the Mojave. Ever since the Falcons had become a common sight in Freeside, making the perilous situation between Freesiders and the NCR even more strained.

History: In 2283 at the Hub, former Major of the NCR Army Jacob Hughes and former Junior Lieutenant Kelly Winters founded a small mercenary group known as the Black Falcons. An organization named after Highes and Kelly’s favorite drinking spot, the Maltese Falcon. Hughes’ charming personality made his group stand out against their competition. Eventually through Hughes’ connections, The Black Falcons would come into contact with one Gerry Greene. Greene was an old guard oligarch who benefited greatly from his friendship with the late President Kimball. Greene began to rely more and more on the Black Falcons to protect his products because of the NCR’s increasing antagonism against his business interest. Greene would enter into a partnership with Hughes after many successful business dealings. This would then grow the mercenary group into the dominant security force in the Mojave.

Following 2286, the group began to concentrate in the Mojave. The Black Falcons also began receiving training from former NCR rangers. In 2287, the organization’s headquarters was moved to Freeside in the Mojave. It was only in the same year that the group began to gain notoriety in the NCR after several journalist discovered the brutal methods that Hughes and his operatives utilized. In 2288, the NCR government enacted several laws that limited the operational capacity of the Black Falcons group. Including putting a hard limit on the number of field operatives that the group can employ and officially banning the group from purchasing equipment from the military. However, thanks to Greene’s political savvy and numerous connections, the Black Falcons haven’t been affected in any major capacity. Like its founder, the Black Falcons as an organization are often seen as a dividing figure within the NCR core territories. Specially as they continue to enact often inhumane tactics in their effort to fully secure the Mojave for the NCR.

Only Hughes and former Junior Lieutenant Kelly Winters were the only officers to survive. Only 14 troopers survived the battle all in all. Winters needed an amputation and Hughes was close to absolute exhaustion. Both were awarded for their bravery. Winters was discharged from the Army because of her injuries. Hughes officially retired following that. The pair did not stay idle though. Hughes managed to convince Winters to move to the Hub. There the two would form their own mercenary group. From that moment on, the Black Falcons group was formed. It was named after Hughes and Winters favorite bar in the Hub, the Maltese Falcon. Hughes was far from the first to offer such services. However many clients found themselves favoring him over other mercs because of Hughes’ disarming personality.

It was also during this time that Hughes first flirted with ultranationalist ideology. Hughes found himself intermingling with the Patriot’s Club, a veteran’s organization that called for more militarization and the complete military occupation of the Mojave. The organization was headed by Rick Sanchez, a ghoul gentleman who spoke effectively to the angst and disappointment felt by NCR vets. Sanchez and Hughes would work together afterwards. With Sanchez bringing Hughes new recruits for his growing outfit and the charismatic Hughes speaking for the Patriot’s Club. Eventually Sanchez would introduce Hughes to one Gerry Greene. Greene was a very influential water baron who was close friends with the late Andrew Kimball. In fact Greene had a catering service that Kimball often used for both public and private functions. This earned Greene the nickname “Kimball’s Chef”. Greene contracted Hughes to protect his caravans going through and from the Mojave. Greene would also use the Black Falcons for less savory operations. Such as putting down worker’s strikes and sabotaging his rivals.

The Black Falcons only continued to grow in size, bringing in more income for Hughes. However Hughes found himself more and more dissatisfied with his success. Hughes found himself having to deal with more and more paperwork. Often spending days inside his office. He enjoyed being outside and fighting. The bureaucratic workings of the mercenary company brought him no joy. That was when Greene offered him a proposal. Greene would become his business partner. Greene would handle the administrative operations of the company while Hughes would lead from the field. Hughes was only more than happy to accept. Following their partnership, Hughes now found himself more and more in the Mojave. At first he continued his job guarding caravans in the Mojave. Often against the Fiends. Sometimes they were Greene’s water caravans, other times they were Crimson Caravans. Then he found himself on security details again. Escorting prominent NCR politicians around the Mojave. However the job he favored the most was jobs that guaranteed combat.

One engagement in particular brought the Black Falcons into the NCR’s public consciousness. The Talons were contracted to support the NCR Army in a raid against the Fiends. After a particularly bloody battle, only a few Fiends were left alive. Most were in critical condition. Hughes took a picture with one of the Fiends who lost an arm. He held her by her hair and raised her head for the camera. Like a hunter showing off their trophy catch. The pictures somehow found their way into the NCR media. Almost overnight, Smiling Jack and the Black Falcons became infamous back home in California. Specially after several journalists began to discover the brutal and near sadistic methods the Falcons use during and after a battle. Hughes didn’t mind all the extra attention. In fact Hughes would be the person responsible for inviting these journalists with him out on Black Falcon operations. Often he would display the sheer brutality of his group with a smile on his face. Ever since Hughes has been a polarizing figure back in California. To some people, he is seen as a rabid extremist. No better than the Legion in practice and ideology. To others he is seen as a hero. Doing necessary evils to protect the Republic from the Legion and other powers that threaten it. As for Hughes, he couldn't be bothered less with his image. He continues to do what he believes is right in the Mojave and enjoys the fact that he's getting paid handsomely for it.

Black Falcons

Faction Name: Black Falcons Security Group


Black Falcons Officer Uniform


Black Falcons Private/Specialist Uniform
(Original source for the uniforms.)

Faction Leader: Functionally Jacob Hughes, though the company itself is a partnership between himself and Gerry Greene.

Are they Canon?: No

Numbers: 200, about 140 are field agents. The rest are bureaucratic staff. This is the maximum number allowed by the NCR government at the time.

Tech Level: The Black Falcons enjoy the same equipment and necessities as the NCR army. This equipment comes from those who sympathize with Hughes's ideology as well as Greene's political connections. However the Black Falcons also have the luxury of choosing from other suppliers, such as the Crimson Caravans and the Gun Runners. For example, a Black Falcons Squad employs a machine gunner who often uses a Saw Light Machine Gun. A weapon not openly available to the NCR military but is sold by the Gun Runners.

Location(s): The Black Falcon's Headquarter office and camp is in Freeside. In front of the King's School of Impersonation. Hughes had the building renovated in 2287, as the Black Falcons became more and more involved in the Mojave. Ever since the Falcons had become a common sight in Freeside, making the perilous situation between Freesiders and the NCR even more strained.

History: In 2283 at the Hub, former Major of the NCR Army Jacob Hughes and former Junior Lieutenant Kelly Winters founded a small mercenary group known as the Black Falcons. An organization named after Highes and Kelly’s favorite drinking spot, the Maltese Falcon. Hughes’ charming personality made his group stand out against their competition. Eventually through Hughes’ connections, The Black Falcons would come into contact with one Gerry Greene. Greene was an old guard oligarch who benefited greatly from his friendship with the late President Kimball. Greene began to rely more and more on the Black Falcons to protect his products because of the NCR’s increasing antagonism against his business interest. Greene would enter into a partnership with Hughes after many successful business dealings. This would then grow the mercenary group into the dominant security force in the Mojave.

Following 2286, the group began to concentrate in the Mojave. The Black Falcons also began receiving training from former NCR rangers. In 2287, the organization’s headquarters was moved to Freeside in the Mojave. It was only in the same year that the group began to gain notoriety in the NCR after several journalist discovered the brutal methods that Hughes and his operatives utilized. In 2288, the NCR government enacted several laws that limited the operational capacity of the Black Falcons group. Including putting a hard limit on the number of field operatives that the group can employ and officially banning the group from purchasing equipment from the military. However, thanks to Greene’s political savvy and numerous connections, the Black Falcons haven’t been affected in any major capacity. Like its founder, the Black Falcons as an organization are often seen as a dividing figure within the NCR core territories. Specially as they continue to enact often inhumane tactics in their effort to fully secure the Mojave for the NCR.

The United Front

Known as the Einheitsfront in Alfheichen

Add a flag or map or both here, if desired.

Summary of Organization:
The United Front is a loose coalition of resistance fighters and political enemies of the Alfheiches Reiyk. All working towards the common goal of overthrowing the current Alfheichen regimes in their respective regions. The level of coordination and information sharing between the different groups varies. Some groups within the group are even antagonistic with other groups. The different liberation groups are listed below:

Mactan Liberation Army

Mactan Liberation Army
Hukbong Kalayaan ng Mactan in Mactano

In 1928 Mactan was invaded by the Alfheiches Reiyk. Most major powers choose to ignore Alfheichen's aggressive actions in hopes that they would cease any further territorial claims. Most of Mactan's government officials fled to Akiya after the occupation. The Alfheichen army encountered sporadic resistance during the first few years of the occupation. Eleven years after occupying Mactan however the Alfheichen army began encountering organized resistance in and around the former capital city of Mactani. Alfheichen officials blame the Mactan government in exile for arming these insurgents. Currently the leader of the group within Mactan itself is unknown. Alfheichen officials speculate that Mactan Liberation Front are nothing more than small cells operating independent of one another. However new intelligence stating that the MLA is more organized than previously believed and that they have communications with other resistance movements proves otherwise.

Yuvran Nationalist

Yuvran Nationalist

In 1882, the Yuvranni nation broke away from the former Seredinaslavia when the Alfheiches Reiyk invaded. Yuvranni would later join the Alfheiches Reiyk in subduing it's neighbors. Hoping to be rewarded for it's co-belligerent role. However later Yuvranni was also occupied, not unlike its neighbors that Yuvranni betrayed. Many in the Yuvran armed forces escaped Alfheichen officials trying to disarm them. Forming into partisan groups in the countryside that continued to resist the Alfheiches Reiyk for half a century. The Yuvran Nationalist are very much distrusted by other partisan movements in the former Seredinaslavia region, even after all the decades that have passed. None-the-less the Yuvran Nationalist have ordinated several, if ineffective, attacks around the region with other groups. Their leader, organizational structure and strength and levels of coordination is unknown to most intelligence services.

Olkon Nationalist

Olkon Nationalist

The Olkon ethnic group was perhaps the largest in the former state of Seredinaslavia. As such it was primarily the Olkon people that resisted the Alfheiches Reiyk during the invasion of Seredinaslavia. Many in the former Seredinaslavia believed that the invasion could have been at least delayed if it hadn't been for Yuvranni secession. After this the war swung heavily in favor of the Alfheichens. Many enlisted infantrymen escaped into the forest. Most were found and rounded by the Alfheiches Reiyk. Those that managed to evade the patrols eventually formed partisan movements. Constantly harassing the Empire and training newer generations of partisans for 50 odd years. The Olkon nationalist are one of the most fierce and ruthless resistance movements in the region. However they often clash with the other partisan groups in the region as much as they do with the Alfheiches Reiyk.

Zerjan Tribal Leaders

Zerjan Tribal Leaders

The Zerjan people have always lived independent of its neighbors, even when it's lands were integrated into Seredinaslavia. They would consider themselves an autonomous people of Seredinaslavia. Never subject to the Seredinaslavian parliament and it's laws. During the invasion, most of the Zerjan people opted to defend their mountainous homeland. Leaving the defense of the rest of the country largely to the Oklan army. The Zerjan people to this day claim that they had never surrendered to the empire. However from time to time their interests conflict with the other resistance groups in the former Seredinaslavia. As such they have been known to work with and against the Empire. The Zerjan tribal Partisans are known to operate under the command of their tribal elders. Who these elders are is a complete secret kept by the tribes. It is estimated that there are 2000 to 3000 Partisans in their organization.

Hudan's Red Faction

Hudan's Red Faction

Hudan's Red Faction is the unofficial name given to the authoritarian socialist, nationalistic resistance movement under the direct command of Milos Hudan. They operate in the former Seredinaslavia region. Often fighting the empire as well as the other resistance movements in the area. They are considered a new movement by the other resistance groups in the area. As Hudan's Red Faction was formed in 1908, only 31 years old. None-the-less they have been known as a potent fighting group. Doing considerable damage to Alfheichen assets. As such are the primary resistance group that the Empire targets in the region. The Alfheiches Reiyk often urges other resistance groups to attack the Red Faction. Sometimes even granting rewards to confirmed kills. However more often the Red Faction works with the other resistance movements to cripple major supply routes to the area as well as frequently stealing supplies to fund their respective war efforts. Several analysts believe that Hudan's Red Faction has between 2000 to 3500 Partisans in their ranks.

The Kolmoist

The Kolmoist

The Kolmoist movement is a libertarian socialist resistance group that continues the armed struggle of Orell Kolmo, who they take their name from. In 1892 Kolmo along with several close compatriots enacted an armed rebellion against the state of Yulha. These rebels captured a large swath of the southern region of Yulha and created the Free Territories of Yulha. The Free Territories practiced a form of anarcho-socialism that found itself massively popular with the common masses. However the Alfheiches Reiyk was quick to pounce on both the Yuhla state and the Free Territories. Ultimately capitulating both in a quick but costly victory. It is unknown whether Kolmo himself survived the war. However his movement didn't collapse under the Alfheichen regime. They are still a very severe threat to the Empire. Fighting the empire after 47 years of occupation. Making them potent adversaries for their uncompromising ideological conviction. The Kolmoist are also believed to have ties to the Freedom Front. They are believed to number within 2500 active members.

Belforo's Children of God

Belforo's Children of God

In 1930 the Morric Republic was offered up to the Alfheiches Reiyk in exchange for promising to drop further territorial claims. The Morric people did not eagerly accept Alfheichen rule. Cases of civil disobedience became common in the first few months of the occupation. These were however quickly put down with force. The Alfheiches Reiyk then decided to completely destroy Morric culture to make them more docile. Including banning their religion of Posdalism. When this made the Morric people become even more unruly, the Alfheiches Reiyk considered the Morrs as an "undesirable people'' and new intelligence leaks now shows that the Morrs are to be systematically liquidated. Several armed resistance movements quickly grew to oppose the empire. One of them became more successful than all others and would unite all resistance movements in the former Morric Republic. The Children of God movement under the leadership of the charismatic Belforo is the largest and most cohesive resistance movement against the Alfheiches Reiyk in the United Front. They number around 8000 to 10,000 active participants. Including those inside Alfheichen mandated concentration and/or death camps. They are the highest priority resistance movement for the Alfheiches Reiyk. Spending considerable resources trying to dismantle the organization. This is in no small part to Belforo's policy that any and all Alfheichen, whether combatants or not, must be killed to avenge their people.

Alfheichen People's Front

Alfheichen People's Front

Known as the Alfheichen Volksfront in their native tongue, the APF is an authoritarian socialist group that formed after the Krieger Revolt was crushed by the Alfheiches Reiyk. After the failed uprising, the early APF was forced underground and adapted guerilla tactics. Several policies were enacted in the following years that further limited the recruiting actions of the group. 232 years after the rise of the Alfheiches Reiyk, the APF were initially believed to have been destroyed. However the Frumenti, the secret police of the state, would occasionally arrest individuals believed to be associated with the group in one form or another. Currently, even after close to two centuries of being pursued by the Reiyk, the APF are still known to operate in the rural areas of Czehsberg and Molhen and well as in the city of Ponne. Their numbers are believed to be extremely diminished but still pose a, if albeit small, threat to the state.

History:

Pre-War:

Hider

During the early years of what would become the Alfheiches Reiyk, a coalition of left-wing militia groups united in what would become known as the Krieger Revolt. This was in response to the brutal suppression of the Alemanian Uprising by Alfheichen imperial authorities. As such many left-wing armed groups determined that negotiations with the aristocracy were simply improbable. The Krieger Revolt aimed to overthrow the monarchy and install some form of democratic government in the nation. The militias created many forms of information sharing and communications that allowed them to coordinate military actions on a surprising level. From 1726 to 1728, the Kriegers fought the Alfheichen state in unconventional warfare. Using tactics that avoided open battles and would lure their enemies into fights that would favor their situation. The Krieger Revolt would even come close to sparking a full civil war in Alfheichen kingdom by uniting all the enemies of the Reiyk under one coalition. However the resistance movements were never able to agree on what government they wanted to replace the monarchy. As such coordination between the different groups stopped and the state destroyed the movements piecemeal. Some of the original Kriegers managed to escape persecution and would eventually come to form the Alfheichen Volksfront. However the idea of multiple groups working together with the shared goal of undermining the Alfheiches Reiyk was born from that moment.

Formation of the Organization:

Hider

As the Alfheiches Reiyk continued to expand, it would create enemies in the form of partisan movements trying to liberate their people. Some of these partisan movements would eventually come into contact with one another. The exact formation of the United Front is unknown. However it is believed to have come about when Alfheichen writer, activist and political refugee Karl Fünfte Kross and former Seredinaslavian Minister of War Kazimir Banich met in _____ during 1901. The two happened upon one another in a protest opposing the military expansion of the Alfheiches Reiyk. Kross happened to have close ties with leading figures in the Alfheichen People Front. Banich, being the former Minister of War for Seredinaslavia, kept in contact with multiple military leaders that happened to escape Reiyk persecution. According to secondhand accounts, the two would slowly build trust in one another and start introducing their contacts to the other's. A network of like-minded individuals came to form with the single goal of toppling the Reiyk's tyranny. With great reluctance Yuvran and Zerjan contacts were also introduced into the slowly forming United Front. A robust and effective communication system was formed between the partisan groups. The Frumenti would affectionately call the communication system the "underground mail". This partisan alliance would prove it's worth in 1913 when the Reiyk found itself having to deploy additional assets to the former Seredinaslavian region only to recall them to defend the Alfheichen homelands from APF attacks.

Recent History:

Hider

Currently the United Front has managed to draw considerable amounts of Reiyk manpower and equipment to problematic areas. While mostly serving as a distraction for the Reiyk, helping other nations by keeping the Alfheiches Reiyk's resources spread out and thin, the United Front's own goals of overthrowing the Reiyk seems far from achievable at the moment. However the addition of the Mactan Liberation Army and Belforo's Children of God has added new operational theatres for the Front to maneuver. The United Front also now has the added benefit of intelligence leaks from the highest echelons of the Reiyk's military. Whoever is providing the United Front these informational gains and their ultimate goals is unknown. Making the partisan groups hesitant to trust the intelligence given to them.

Pressing Issues:

Hider

The most pressing issue facing the partisans of the United Front is the Alfheiches Reiyk's occupation of their territories. Anti-partisan measures by the Reiyk are known to be brutal and indiscriminate. Often eliminating local communities, such as towns and villages, simply for being in the vicinity of a partisan attack. The Reiyk will also take preemptive actions, such as decreasing a population's food ration and forcing communities into concentration camps, to discourage possible and/or future partisan efforts in the future. Reiyk mismanagement of resources as well as general apathy to it's colonial subjects have created and/or worsened calamities that affects the populace the partisans fight for.

To add to the long list of disadvantages the partisans face, another key issue the struggle to resolve is lack of equipment and ammunition. Unlike most of the unoccupied nations that resist the Reiyk, the partisans of the United Front cannot manufacture the supplies they need to actively fight the empire. As such they more often than not exclusively rely on foreign lent and/or stolen material to continue their struggle.

Notable Strengths:

Hider

The United Front's greatest strength comes in it's flexibility and ability to perform actions that most traditional armed forces cannot. The United Front can choose to attack it's enemies on their own terms. Rarely an opportunity afforded to most conventional armies. The shared intelligence system between the different resistance movements also makes it possible to coordinate their actions on a large theatre that only allied nations could achieve. Partisan groups could coordinate their attacks in such a fashion that the Reiyk is left unable to respond in an effective manner. As the Reiyk is fighting on multiple fronts, a coordinated uprising on both the Reiyk's occupied continents could prove catastrophic. As such the Reiyk is kept on a constant state of alert. The soldiers stationed in these areas are often plagued with battle fatigue and other illnesses associated with lack of rest and stressful combat conditions. The intelligence leaks from vab Mackle have also proved valuable in some partisan operations. Even if most of the partisan groups are still hesitant to trust the information given to them.

National Priorities:

Hider

The main and only goal of the United Front is to overthrow the Reiyk and/or Reiyk-allied regimes in their respective territories. What institution they want to replace it with wildly differs according to each partisan group. However their shared goals of weakening and ultimately overthrowing the current Alfheiches Reiyk is the sole driving force behind their coalition.

Question @gorgenmast. Can the revenant majors give their minors the same level of autonomy as themselves? I plan on Urgun giving his circle as much free thought as he does if that's alright.

Oh and do you mind if I wrote a sheet for a revenant minor I'd play in the background? Just to mix up the Order of the Savior.
