Factions

This page contains info on the various factions that have sprung up in the wake of the Arrival of the Power Armors and Multiverse.

## High Factions

Factions that could seriously change the face of the entire multiverse given enough time, or have enough power to do so already.

### Federal Government

With the coming of the alien power armors obviously spawned a new way to wage war, and the more nations who wanted to use them the greater the market for Inter-Dimensional Tech who could acquire them, by whatever means necessary. Federal Government is one of these, an alliance based out of Earth-008 from the states, seeing war as a way to protect worlds and stimulate economies.

Primarily using the Suits and various Unmanned drones spawned from this new technology, they seek to dominate control of the market from currently existing Inter-Dimensional Tech, through brute force and tactics. Rapidly expanding and becoming a powerful force, one of the reasons the Fed Gov't is so powerful is due to the strong military and protections: Destroy criminal elements, enforce stability, and plenty of opportunities for normality to prosper.

### Parallel Society

a unique group that is invested in military and scientific assets in matters pertaining to unlawful usage of the aforementioned objects against the inter-dimensional community and acts of purposeful destruction or terrorism accomplished via the use of the aforementioned objects, as well as enlisting their aid in missions of humanitarian aid, research, and diplomacy. Perpetrators of such acts should be captured alive and with the aforementioned objects intact if at all possible and PS agents are encouraged to aid local authorities in properly and humanely containing empowered perpetrators. Failing that, use of lethal force is permitted at the agent’s discretion in defense of their own lives, their sanctioned mission, or in defense of others.

### Tatsumaki Syndicate

The Tatsumaki Syndicate is a criminal group dedicated to creating a black market dominated by them. They are known for multiple murders and drug deals, and for desiring to mass-produce suits for distribution to the organization. They are currently in control of Earths 358 and 555 for use as a "testing ground" for their black market trade. As it stands however, they are currently split between two regimes, with the newer one barely able to hold a candle of light in the multiverse.

## Major Factions

Powers that could rival any standing government at their height

### UNCED(aka the United Nations Council for Earth's Defense)

The UNCED is a group of like minded individuals interested in keeping the multiverse in check. Starting out as a group of 5 people keeping in contact with each other for emergencies, it quickly sprawled out into a coalition of several dozen people working in tandem to protect the multiverse. If the UNCED is working as planned, bad things will never happen in Meatspace.

Joining the UNCED is entirely voluntary. If you refuse you are free to go on with your normal life unimpeded.

### Patriot Alliance

The Patriot Alliance are an enigmatic multiversal faction consisting military personnel and researchers. They are well known for fielding mostly fast flying exosuits and using several advanced heavy cargo airships as mobile bases. The group's goals are apparently to gather as much alien technology as possible, reverse engineer it, and replicate it. They are not above using violence and deception to accomplish their objectives as to not have disappointing results for their supporters.

### -HOOH-:[EVERY-SCREAMS-IN-THE-DARK]

-HOOH-, a monster hunting corporation was formed by a man calling himself Walker, intending on taking advantage of the possibilities for monster hunting work, and hopefully corner the monsters in a new way with ROCs at the forefront of this new field. Unfortunately for Walker, The Birdwatcher and Scp foundation beat him to it with the formation of UNCED but even as SCP began consuming assets across the world, -HOOH- began doing the same. -HOOH- is snatching up small assets and lone mercs with the intention of building a near completely monster hunting group and secure as much of the rapidly dwindling arcane market as possible.

## Minor Factions

Across the multiverse there are various people who band together for whatever they believe in, some turn into factions of their own right, or are minor groups that tend to be regional competitors.

### Merchant Federation

The Merchant Federation is a trading-courier service for the delivery of various goods in a timely fashion.

Primarily consisting of cargo ships and caravans, The Merchant Federation offers wide coverage for their services. Cargo ships are used to transport goods vast distances in a short amount of time, while the caravans can carry packages through hazardous locations that most people would be ill equipped for.

### Crystal Syndicate

A group of raiders, thieves, and hackers for hire. The Crystal Syndicate, you'd never know that once upon a time it used to be a chapter of one of the multitude of motorcycle gangs across the world until they landed in vegas and became the crime group they are today.

### The System

Consisting of three youtube channels such as Cave of Shadows, ns0mnby, and awake. Cave of Shadows is full of broadcasts which follow a schedule and is owned by the Overwatcher. ns0mnby appears to be a vlog of some kind and is full of erratic videos. finally Awake is full of weird videos and constantly calls for strange messages and points to a location in Maine.
