The search engine didn't come up with anything so I thought I'd just flat out ask.
Specifically, I'd like to know more about the faction's backstory. It appears most of the characters speak Arabic. At first I thought they came from a Muslim community until I saw a post wherein they said, "Faith? Allah? What the hell are you talking about?"
If they don't believe in Allah, that means there's a non-Islamic Arabic community somewhere. I'm curious where it comes from.
Thanks in advance,
Blue~

Anarchists. Anti-zoner. Awesome. Though some consider them trolls:rolleyes:.
About the back story there isn't much, apart of what you see in-game; a group of terrorists with middle eastern looks, but not necessarily "Muslim" (quoting you). Also I'm not sure if this is the right section for this thread.

Discovery RP Factions. I couldn't think any place else to post.

I am glad that is an FL search engine and not an RL one.:dry:

Seems I was right.

Just trying to reduce the "all arabs are muslims and all muslims are terrorists therefore all arabs are terrorists" stereotype complex a little bit.

You could.
The point being made however, is not Muslim or not. It is what is the RP?

Last I checked, the RP was "lol zoners yalalalala engegign".
But I digress...

Just to make sure there's no misunderstanding: this is an educational thread.
