Cross-Allied Forces

The Cross-Allied Forces (CAF) is a transnational government made of several member states across the known world. Founded in 1855, 256 years ago, after the Dark War ended, made up of people from all backgrounds- regardless of cast, creed, race, species, or religion. Their headquarters is in the city of Ancestra on the continent of Svellheimr, though they operate out of many cities across the world including Concordia. Since then the CAF has continued its efforts to unite the world and maintain global peace to the best of its ability with moderate success.
=Origin=
==Charter of Ancestria==
The founding document of the CAF is the Charter of Ancestra, which is a post-war agreement to prevent disasters and unite all races for a common cause and purpose. The Charter of Ancestra was created by the Allied Forces to align with the purposes of the CAF and their subdivisions and to protect all the people within the CAF, make sure everyone had a voice and a way to protect their people as well as containment and destruction of Dark Forces that would threaten them. It was signed after the Dark war and it remains in effect today.
= Divisions =
== Research Division ==
The Antumbran Research Initiative, named after a fallen city near United Sanctuary during the Dark War, is a division tasked to research the containment and destruction of dark forces. The research division has many divisions and subdivisions and it is funded by all the members of the CAF.

== C.R.O.S.S ==
The Collective Response Officers Security Squadrons (C.R.O.S.S) are squadrons tasked specifically with preventing dangers and external forces disturbing the peace and security of CAF members in accordance with the Ancestra Charter.
They generally operate in squads of 6 and they are tasked with high-risk missions that the CAF deems necessary to solve. These 6 person units form the bases of high-level deployments into unknown and emergency locations within the known world. The soldiers within the squad are deliberately kept varied so they can react to rapidly changing situations.
Common troops that fill the CROSS department are usually donated by different state members for the CAF. Institutions like Ascension Academy form officers to be up to the division standards and it's not rare for excellent students to be recruited as squad leaders for the C.R.O.S.S squad. Being in C.R.O.S.S is an honor, a privilege, and a responsibility.
