. . . . Who We Are Tag: '\S/', ID: Freelancer / '\S/' Starfliers ID, IFF: Unaffiliated How do we represent ourselves in space? . . The Starfliers are an independent research and exploratory organization specializing in system cartography, studying points of interest and researching interstellar anomalies within Sirius and Gallia. Originally hailing from the Kepler System in 828 AS, they have rebuilt a home for themselves within the Inverness System. Their largely miniscule footprint within space has allowed them to stay neutral with most parties. The information they gather is sold to any organization wanting to work with the Starfliers. This Independent official faction ID is used by Starfliers, who: Cannot mount weapons. Cannot fulfill bounty contracts. Can fly '\S/'SRV-Sol and ships up to 3,600 cargo space, except Battleships. . .

. . . . Company Origins Where did the Starfliers come from? How did they get to where they are now? . . Leon Vicci, a small-time freelance pilot found a really good deal on a Bustard equipped with hyperspace technology. Catch was, the Bustard had a defect and the price was too good to be true. Once the purchase was completed and the "Velorum" was under his command, he spent a bit of time exploring the reaches of the Sirius Sector. During on of his expeditions, the ship's defect caused a Jump Drive malfunction, leaping him right into the Hammen Hole in the Omega-5 System. It didn't take long for Leon to see the state of the system, many broken ships and dead pilots filled the void. Few remaining still fighting each other. The optics of the system convinced him that weapons cause unnecessary bloodshed and vowed that he would never mount a single arm on his ship. This belief went as far to handicap their ability to fight back any undesirables. Some months passed and a bit of reputation was gained through the contract work as a Hyperspace Surveyor. With the data servers on board his ship reaching capacity, Leon decided it was time to setup a home somewhere in the Independent Worlds. Information started circling around the Neural Net around 828 AS, recruiting other researchers, scientists and crew that primarily specialize in exploration, cartography and hyperspace related scientific fields. After gaining some traction in the scientific space, grants and funding granted to the Starfliers, to a degree where the have growth into what they are known as now. Not only did they receive a huge influx of credits, but their clientele grew quite large too. Servicing the most developed organizations within Sirius, the Starfliers profits from their services were redirected internally to grow. This cycle of reinvestment allowed the company to purchase new ships and craft, dedicated to certain roles and processes. Over the few years they have been operational, the Starfliers have accumulated a handful of transports, civilian explorers and some freighters, all with their own roles and tasks to perform to continue on their main goals of exploration and research. Presently, the Starfliers are the first choice for many who would contract their services in system cartography and expeditionary reporting. . .

. . . . Company Goals What are our organization's goals? What are we doing to achieve these goals? . . Primary We're looking to record and discover as much as we can utilizing our small-scale fleet. Our teams are asked with researching specific objects and anomalies we find to learn more about them. Performing these tasks is what drives us to become the top exploratory and research organization in Sirius and Gallia. Utilizing some of the best hardware in Sirius, we are striving to improve upon them. To create not only the best research equipment, but secure ourselves in a strong position for other exploratory and scientifically-inclined individuals to join and continue the journey of learning and discovery. Secondary Personal research ventures are encouraged, as each scientist and researcher has their own interests and projects they wish to pursue. Through our exploratory and research methods, we celebrate any developments made within any individual projects. . .

. . . . Ships We Fly Look over our modest exploratory and expeditionary fleet Each vessel has their own assignments and roles to fulfil . . The fleet of the Starfliers consists of six separate departments. Five of them are dedicated to the primary directive, Exploration and Research. The last one focuses entirely on the Starfliers' off-hours recreational activity: Space Racing. Below are the basics provided to the public, giving enough detail so potential applicants are aware of the ships we fly. Compact Exploratory Vessel The backbone of the Starfliers. Map out systems, identifying all stellar bodies worth further research. Typically serviced by the Freighter Tier ships. Orbital Racing Vessel A handful of racers were purchased from Spa & Cruise. They're flown to prove that the Starfliers are the fastest racers. Deep-Space Cargo Vessel "Regent"-Class Yachts fill the role of logistics. Make trade runs and transporting scientific crew. Ensure the company doesn't go bankrupt. Multi-Purpose Research Vessel The most expensive division of the company. Utilizing both the "Corvo" and "Conference"-Class ships. Researching anomalies and stellar bodies found by our explorers. Heavy Prospecting Vessel An "Archon"-Class serves this role. Allowing greater capacity for mining exotic deposits. Specialized Research Vessel The main base of operations for the Starfliers. Serviced by Renzu's "Shukensha"-Class Luxury Liner. Significantly retrofitted for research and development. . .

. . . . Internal Ranks Look over the progression of the Starfliers Take note of the different perks obtained at each rank . . The fleet of the Starfliers consists of five separate groups. Four of them are dedicated to the primary directive, Exploration and Research. The first one focuses entirely on the Starfliers' most recent recreational activity: Space Racing. Below the basics are provided to the public, giving enough detail to potential applicants. Starblazer Granted to successful applicants. Immediate access to a handful of assets. Startracker This rank opens up the opportunities of our research division. Allowing the use of custom-made equipment to make certain tasks more efficient to perform. Starflier Recognized as a matured Starfliers pilot. Have access to the majority of the assets and get further benefits. Second in Charge & Company Leader Internal information only. . .

. . . . Communications We operate infrequently within space Get in touch with us if you can't see us in space . . Please address your subspace message using the following name(s), term(s) or symbol(s): '\S/' or Starfliers Research Liner Sol Or any specific individuals within the faction . .
