about the (A)utarks

[eristikophiles]

UPDATE: after discussing amongst ourselves the massive controversy concerning our use of Rheinland ships, especially the cruiser, we have decided to revise the RP backstory about that area and use a zoner cruiser instead. the changed area is marked above (between ***s). the revised version is as follows:

about the Autarks:

[]=OORP

we are anarcho-autarkists [radical zoners], who seek to establish a utopian society based around the anarchist values of community, respect, care, autonomy, and equality. in order to do so we believe in establishing autarky (self-sufficiency), first for our entire community (this is established), then for each collective within it, and finally for each individual. our covert operatives have stolen plans to the Wrath fighter to aid us in military defense of our home system, Utopia [which we're saving up for, don't have it yet] whose location is a closely guarded secret. we have built a few of these ships and will build more in order to establish a defense and to combat those enemies who seek to stop us by force. we also wish to slowly persuade those who have similar ideals to join our cause through diplomacy. our flagship is a Fearless, flown by Autark Mikuru. this is the largest ship we feel the need to have, and obtaining it has taxed our resources, so we do not foresee the ability to acquire more capital ships at this time. other than the Wrath, we use Zoner equipment [civilian ships are ok, but for RP we don't want to go overboard with ship types]. we also have access to a limited amount of Nomad equipment modified for human ship use [maximum of 2 Nomad or code name weapons per ship].
