Fark Force

The Fark Force, also abbreviated as "FF", is a massive, world-wide military organization led by Fark. It serves as the apparent antagonistic force throughout Spark the Electric Jester 3.
==History==
===Past===
During the events of Spark the Electric Jester 2, Fark learned of the existence of a hostile, super-intelligent A.I. named Clarity, as well as the danger she posed to all life on the Moon due to her ability to spread through the internet. Seeking to contain and eliminate Clarity, Fark called a secret meeting with top government officials and informed them of the situation. He proposed the creation of a worldwide military force with ultimate authority over society in order to take the drastic actions required to destroy Clarity. Now alerted to the direness of the situation, the world leaders accepted Fark’s proposal and made him commander of the new organization, giving rise to the eponymous Fark Force.
The Fark Force began their work soon after. They created a base of operations deep underground, the Utopia Shelter, to isolate themselves from Clarity’s influence. At the same time, the Fark Force created a militia comprised of the majority of GPAs on the moon, which began to exert martial control over the entire world. The Fark Force then shut down all forms of electronic communication, including the internet, to prevent Clarity’s influence from spreading any further. The Force also created anti-Clarity software, which they began installing on every computer system to block Clarity from accessing them. The multi-pronged offensive against Clarity greatly reduced her influence as well as her ability to freely infect other computer systems, making the Fark Force’s victory all but inevitable.
However, the Fark Force was perceived very differently by anyone not included in it, particularly the Formie population of the Moon. Aside from the few high-ranking politicians who met with Fark, the Formies we’re never informed of the Fark Force’s mission, let alone the existence of Clarity. Though intended to preserve the Force’s element of surprise against the AI, the lack of communication and explanation to the Formies meant they saw the Fark Force as a totalitarian dictatorship seizing control of the moon. The Fark Force was met with mass protests from the Formies both during and after their gradual conquest. These protestors were policed by massive riot control squads of GPAs, and any Formie that became too disruptive to the Force’s activities was imprisoned in massive incarceration centers. The strife came to a head when the Force shut down all electronic communication on the moon, which included all banking networks. Unable to withdraw or deposit any funds electronically, Formies all over raced to the banks in order to withdraw their money, causing massive waits as the banks struggled to accommodate every patron. Even despite all the resistance the Fark Force encountered, this single event would lead to its downfall.
A Formie Electric Jester named Spark soon found out he couldn’t access the nigh-unlimited money given to him as thanks for saving the world, causing him to return home early from his vacation to the Bahamas. Seeing the state of the moon, he tried to withdraw his funds in person, but was unwilling to wait in the massive lines at the bank. Having reached his breaking point, Spark set out to locate Fark and defeat the Fark Force. During his offensive, he was confronted by the Fark Force’s second in command, Flint. Going by the the alias “Guardian” Flint attempted to stop Spark’s advance, though he was given orders by Fark not to kill Spark. Additionally, Spark later met up with a Formie named Float, who opposed the Fark Force due to losing her friend, Flint, to its ranks. Spark and Float continued to tear through the Fark Force and repeatedly sparred with Flint. Eventually, Flint disregarded his order to leave Spark alive in a desperate attempt to stop the jester. He nearly succeeded, but was halted thanks to the intervention of Float. Shocked to see the friend he thought was dead, Flint reluctantly stopped pursuing the pair. Ultimately, no defense the Fark Force mustered could stand against Spark and Float, with the duo confronting Fark in the heart of the Utopia Shelter. Fark dueled Spark in a final attempt to stop Spark’s disruption, but was defeated.
While Fark and Spark fought, Float made her way to the base’s main computer terminal and revealed her true identity; she was an android Formie, a robotic husk controlled by Clarity. With the last of the Fark Force defeated, Float used the Fark Force’s control over all electronic communication to uploaded Clarity’s programming to every network on the moon. Now, Clarity could pursue her prime directive: the protection of all life on the moon. Unfortunately, Clarity determined the best way to do so was to Integrate every conscious being into her network, where they would be forever trapped in simulations of the real world. Clarity quickly integrated the minds of all remaining GPAs, destroying the remnants of the Fark Force in one fell swoop. She then used their bodies to round up the Formie population. She began to scan the brains of each Formie, creating a digital copy of their minds to integrate. After the copy was created, she killed the still-living original. Eventually, every remaining Formie was copied into Clarity’s system, even Spark himself. With no living beings left alive, Clarity had taken total control of the moon. Additionally, to the mind-copies inside her simulations, she had total control of their reality; as digital beings, Clarity could edit everything about them, from their perception of time to their very memories. 
However, a single member of the Fark Force retained his awareness of reality: Fark himself. Thanks to his transformation while fighting Freom, his architecture was incomparable with Clarity’s, meaning his mind couldn’t be forcefully integrated. Regardless of this fact, she still subdued his physical body and immersed him in her simulated reality, trapping him along with everyone else. She attempted to break Fark’s resolve and have him agree to be integrated by trapping him in the AI Spark’s simulation, where Spark relived his campaign against the Fark Force. Eventually the AI Spark would make his way to Fark and engage in a reenactment of their final battle. However, when Fark was defeated, the simulation would reset to the beginning of Spark’s journey, with his memory wiped of ever having experienced it before. Due to existing outside Clarity’s direct control, Fark was able to observe the code that she used to control the simulation. While he waited for Spark, Fark was able to skim an impossibly small amount of control from Clarity without her knowing. This discovery gave him an idea to continue the fight against Clarity.
