"For every spirit there is a proper place in hell." - Deidrich Von Claussen
A rather motly group of rebels and former military personnel, Battlegroup Scarabaeus is the self-proclaimed designation coined by former Liberty Navy Commodore Jonathan Kalh to represent the struggle he'd embarked on. Comprised of former military, civilian and terrorist rooted people, the idea behind the group was summed up as one bordering the Order, with the same rugged idealism, but lacking the murderous imperialism that their main opponant, the Order Overwatch, had come to embrace. Headed by Kalh, and backed by his trusted friend Vex, the decision was made to formalize the rag-tag bunch, and organize the effort against the Overwatch, the Nomads and any individual who would aim to benefit from either.
Working on the go, Scarabaeus maintains it's operational flexibility and the freedom to scout. With the growing alien and infested threat, as well as the likely comprimization of the Order, deeper views of the factions across Sirius were given priority, alliances drawn and pacts made to keep those of even questionable probability at bay. No person would remain immune from becoming an ally or an enemy, no ship unbreachable and no station impervious. The goal was clear, and the motive untarnished. Only through unity could the enemy be beaten.
Based off the Amenhotep, where betrayal from the Navy was strong, Scarabaeus is set to wage a war for humanity, bent on cleansing the sector by any means. From the blood-drenched warzone of Omicron Delta to the frigid ices of the Barrier, the Crow to the Walker and all in between, no infestee would find sanctuary, the cries of the fallen echoing from humanity's crusaders.
Battlegroup Scarabaeus is an enigmatic organization that focuses on the removal of the Nomads from any and all applications of human life. They seek to bring together the forces of mankind against the Nomads and their thralls, and purge any idea of the thought of Nomad technology from the hands of humanity in general. They are cordial to any faction who opposes the Alien invasion, and are absolutely hostile to the Nomads, the Wild, the Order and any other thralls of the alien menace.

The Amenhotep took part in the Battle for Toledo and ultimately fell right before Battleship Isis charged into battle to give the retreating Order forces time to escape. Then in the year 823 A.S., Jonathan Kalh found the floating wreck and, with the Order's help, got it back to operational standards. Its main goal was to secure Humanity's safety should Nomadic forces pass the Order in Omicron Delta. Sometime later, Kalh found himself at odds with the Order, after countless lies and betrayals. Shortly after it started service within the Liberty Navy and all seemed normal. However, the Nomad influence inside Liberty's higher echelon caused them to disown Jonathan. Currently the Captain and its crew are finding their roots and going back to what their original purpose was: Destroy the Nomads and anyone who would seek to gain power or influence from them.
-The Montu, originally christened the Ahkmim, is typically considered the 'wannabe' in among the lineup of warships. Of a similar origin to her compatriot the Amenhotep, the Montu originated as an Order vessel, captained by Upsilon before the Order's terror campaign wped away any hope of the ship returning to the Order's side. In the wake of the genocidal 'Carthage Crisis', Upsilon and the Ahkmim brought up arms against the Overwatch, standing alongside the Core, Auxesia and the native Zoners in the region to protect the station. In light of this, the order was given for the Overwatch to actively pursue the vessel, leading to her escape into Sirius proper, where contact was made formally with Auxesia, as well as Captain Kalh. In time, the effort was made to keep the ship's identity more secure, the change in transponder to Montu both effective and fitting given the ship's new role.
She now acts in the favor of Scarabaeus, engaging any unforeseen adversary alongside her companion.

What is the motivation behind cordial relationship with Harmony who are suspected to be infected no less than the Order? What about UN and Aux? This diplomacy is suspiciously resemble ooRP result of playing in Bering for too long.
Harmony's reasoning for Cordial relations really stems from the help both sides have provided each other. It may look purely like ooRP favor, and to some extent it may be, but the relationship is backed by RP ingame and on the forums. Same applies to the UN.
As for Aux, they have been a key factor in the RP of not only the RP for the two SRP ships in the faction, but the viewpoint as well.
Auxesian Reputation is backed by over a year and a half of RP between them and Jonathan Kalh, Vex was also introduced to Jonathan Kalh through Auxesia.
Edit: Just like spectre said hehe

If you want to shoot at Liberty, join the MRG or make a Gallic indie, not another Separatist group. It is contributing to a playerbase that already has too many players for its inRP size, instead of contributing to a playerbase that is too small, especially for how important it is. Of course, nothing stops you from making more Separatist groups. I just think it's disproportional.
