Order Omega
The @Order Omega : Sanctuary in the Shadows
The @Order Omega is a sanctuary forged in betrayal and a secret society born from the ashes of galactic war. It is the phoenix that rose from the pyre of FORCE Omega, transforming from a military spearhead into a reclusive haven for psionic beings. Founded in the immediate aftermath of the Great Schism in 1025 AF, the @Order Omega is a profoundly young and fragile entity, its culture and traditions still being written by its scarred founders. Its core purpose is a radical departure from its past: where FORCE Omega was a weapon wielded by the state, the @Order Omega exists solely to protect psions from the state, and from the galaxy at large. It operates in absolute secrecy, a necessary defense for a community that has always been both weaponized and persecuted by the powers of the galaxy.
A Foundation of Trauma and Idealism
The @Order Omega's genesis is inextricably linked to the cosmic wound of @Nyfal . It was on this nethereal graveyard that @Rauvin Karr , the "Survivor of Nyfal," established its first enclave - the @Omega Academy. The planet serves as both a physical fortress, shielded by its terrifying reputation, and a symbolic foundation—a constant reminder of the cost of psionic power unleashed in war. The @Order Omega's members are students of the psionic arts, diligently trained by the masters @Rauvin Karr and Barrus Toryn. They are unified by a shared desire to escape the agendas of empires and warlords, to "watch each other's backs" in a galaxy that fears and covets their abilities. Their ideology is a unique blend of hardened pragmatism and enlightened self-interest, prioritizing the survival and flourishing of their own kind above all else.
The Leadership of a Reborn Soul
The @Order Omega is guided by the quiet, resolute authority of its founder and grandmaster, @Rauvin Karr. Her leadership is not one of conquest, but of cultivation with a radical, long-term vision. Having experienced death and rebirth and having rejected a grand, pre-ordained cosmic destiny, she embodies the @Order Omega's core principle: that psionic power is not a curse to be hidden or a weapon to be controlled, but a fundamental aspect of potential that belongs to all who can wield it. In a galaxy where psions are almost universally feared, hunted, or exploited by the splintered successor states, @Rauvin Karr has established the Order as a sanctuary beyond the galactic edge. Her cold pragmatism is reserved for external threats, ensuring the sanctuary's security, while her profound loyalty is directed inward, fostering a community where students can learn without persecution. Her ultimate goal, however, extends far beyond mere survival. @Rauvin Karr envisions a future where the knowledge of the nethereal is proliferated to the galaxy at large, where this power is nurtured in all who have the gift. She aims to provide its people with the tools to forge a grander destiny for themselves, one that utterly transcends the limitations of material ruin and the cyclical collapse of empires. Her victory over her own past makes her the ideal figure to lead this charge, offering an alternative to the paths of ruin and domination represented by figures like @Sigreon Calath.
Society of Open Knowledge and Guarded Sanctuary
Life within the @Order Omega is one of disciplined study and open collaboration, protected by strategic isolation. Its members, residing in the @Omega Academy, concealed beneath the frozen wastes of the impossibly remote @Nyfal, are scholars and pioneers. They dedicate themselves to the mastery of the nethereal for the sole sake understanding, empowerment, and eventual enlightenment for all. The @Order Omega's purpose is the antithesis of secrecy concerning knowledge; they are archivists and teachers preparing for a future where their arts can be safely shared. The only "secret" they keep is the physical whereabouts of their facility; a necessary and pragmatic security measure to protect the fledgling community from the very persecution they seek to end. This isolation is their shield, allowing them to develop their understanding free from external pressure or predations. They are acutely aware that their work—the nurturing of a power that could allow humanity to evolve beyond its current fractured state—would be seen as a profound threat by the galaxy's ruling powers. Thus, they remain hidden not to hoard knowledge, but to preserve it, cultivate it, and prepare for the day it can be given freely as a gift to all of humanity.
The Unsettled Rivalry: A Storm on the Horizon
The Order's most complex and dangerous relationship is with its twin, the @Ashen Remnant. The Remnant, under @Sigreon Calath and @Malevanthor Abrenach, views the @Order Omega with a mixture of contempt and strategic interest, seeing its isolation as a cowardly retreat from a cosmic destiny the @Ashen Remnant eagerly embraces. For the @Order Omega and especially for @Rauvin Karr personally, the @Ashen Remnant is a ghost from a painful past; a reminder of the betrayal at @Nyfal. The current absence of open conflict is a product of the @Order Omega's youth and the @Ashen Remnant's preoccupation with its own grand designs. This peace is an illusion of time and distance. The @Order Omega, focused on its own consolidation and survival, remains largely oblivious to the depth of the @Ashen Remnant's fixation, while the @Ashen Remnant watches and waits, already calculating how to neutralize or absorb this fledgling rival. The fragile silence between them is not a peace, but the calm before a storm that will inevitably test the @Order Omega.
