Imperia Dominus

Imperia Dominus, previously known as the British Pride Militia (BPM) until 2005 is a growing far-right and fascist paramilitary supremacist sect based in the United Kingdom, obsessed with imperialism and the concept of re-establishing the British Empire in a forceful manner.

It later began expanding it's idea of imperial dominance across Europe and began to take a surprising amount of supporters who believed in a similar idea of "Imperial Europe", though the main UK bulk of the group still believe that Britain should be it's ruling factor, gladly accept more members from further afield if they believe in the core ideals of a controlled and totalitarian regime, and renamed the group Imperia Dominus and it's growth gave them more access to military-grade weapons and bases to conduct their operations.

Recently Various factions of Dominus began in The US, specifically the Federal Minutemen who held similar core values without the British overreach and supported by similar organisations such as Ehrenwache Zentral.

### **History**

While the group existed in an unofficial sense since the late 90's, orchestrated by ex-marine Noel Everington, mainly in online forums, it's first attack at a UN meeting in Manchester in 1999 proved to the UK government that BPM was a serious organisation.

When the BPM began it's influence on UK Army servicemen and British mercenaries alike it gained serious traction and attracted the ex-army hunters Jay Burgess aka Calibre and Tracey Burgess aka Kestrel who had an enormous influence on it's succession, renaming the group "Imperia Dominus" in 2005 and gaining the edge in advanced military hardware.

In 2010 an unstable Fume came to Volt after the death of Fume's father Boise Bailey with a suspicion that Calibre and Kestrel may be stealing weapons from Bailey Industries' secret research labs, as well as confront David Burgess business partner to Boise who felt that Fume's worsening condition of his smoky alt form meant that he could not carry the company forward. David also revealed himself to be the father of Calibre, though he insisted that he and Jay no longer spoke, got quietly angry when Volt implied that he was going to kill Jay. With this reaction Fume also had a suspicion that he was working in some way to take over Bailey Industries for Dominus and made plans to try and find ways to stabilise his dissipating form.

In 2011 Fume seemed to recover enough to take over Bailey Industries and fire David, though Volt found no direct evidence linking Bailey Industries and the group or that Calibre was trying to steal any projects, nevertheless Volt did agree something was going on as Calibre was later seen with an experimental multigun weapon developed by Bailey in secret.

In 2012 Clay discovered his young personal assistant for Claymore, Mateo Cusano was a hacker for their organisation stealing information from both Clay and Theo's Argent company, mainly to use as ransom doxing, before hiring Drath to counter his doxing, making Drath and Mateo bitter enemies, however Mateo vanished from online for several years.

Throughout 2013 and 2014 Belarusian Dominus members attempted, mostly unsuccessfully, to raid a lightly-guarded Argent facility, which caused Theo to step-up security and personally send a team of ASC after them.

In late 2014 Clay sent Volt to deal with what he believed to be Imperia Dominus activity in one of his mines in Germany, where he also aided Twist in uncovering a deeper Dominus plot to kill a German ambassador and destroy the Jewish Museum in Berlin with the help of German Ehrenwache members. The death of the ambassador would have let Imperia Dominus-supporting members of the Bundestag to impose far-right views and the German government thanked Volt and Twist, later in early 2015 becoming one of the first countries to support The Ray Project as a private, counter-terror organisation across Europe known as Rayon. This made Dominus and Rayon in direct conflict for Europe.

### **Beliefs and "Core Values"**

Imperia Dominus represents a far-right ideal of white-supremacy that hasn't been seen since the likes of the Nazis, while earlier Blackshirts and groups such as the BUF created fascist movements throughout the 50's and 60's, Dominus grew to be a powerful military system far beyond the political fascism of the time. The group were known to praise Oswald Mosley though they claim they are not themselves an *actual* political movement, did have a political agenda and a cascade of noted ideals of re-establishing what they called their "core values" of fundamental conservatism, and many "alt-right" supporters both famous and not came out of the woodworks throughout 2016 and beyond.

This included, but was not limited to the domination of religion over government as an important factor of family; though many were not strictly religious or were agnostic. They pushed the apartheid of Caucasian and non-Caucasian peoples in Europe.

They supported 'conversion therapy' to turn gay people straight; they saw homosexuality and transgenderism as a sickness (though some who left the organisation later claimed to be gay or bisexual; many of these people were later murdered),

Many believed abortion should be considered murder, the limiting or total abolition of rights of ethnic groups and the establishment of a permanent paramilitary martial law system; to this end they believed that the military, more specifically, *their* military had the right to control above all.

Disturbingly, some saw disabled people as strain on society and called for their termination "for their own good".

Imperia also claimed they wanted to impose a militaristic regime in schools which would lead to mandatory conscription after graduation.

They openly praised far-right groups and politicians and stirred prejudice and racial hatred across Europe and later America. They also worked in more subtle ways, sending in 'undercover' agents to demonstrations and rallies to cause violence and incite further strains between certain groups.

Many of them believed that humanity had to work very hard for what it wanted, and saw superhumans in particular as "cheating" to achieve their strength, associating the entire superhero subculture with leftist ideals, though this was clearly not always the case; far-right superhuman activity occurred (such as the rise of Sovereign's group The Sovereignty against VALER) but Imperia Dominus were strongly against *all* superhero and vigilante activity and any organisations that use superhumans, calling them "toxic to humanity's growth", but mainly because these organisations were the heavily involved in stopping the spread of the terror network Dominus used.

### **Trade and Funding**

Becoming a worryingly powerful military effort Imperia Dominus gained most of their early monetary assets through fronts pretending to be weapons manufacturers, but really selling weapons and equipment stolen by members, this eventually led to them purchasing more powerful, military-grade arsenals by 2012, this included the major production of proteptogen.

At some point Imperia Dominus began actually producing copies of weapons, became involved in gang activity across the world, where some far-right gangsters used them as support; the favours racked up over the years came to work in their favour.

Later evidence of the extremist Redemption cult in 2015 often used Dominus members for protection whilst funding their organisation in secret; their connections to Redemption allowed them unprecedented secrecy and anonymity, and Redemption allowed them the use of one of their sanctuaries on an Italian island to harbour a well-defended garrison.

In 2016 Dominus helped secure several previously small, independent countries for factions of the Russian military, annexing them with the promise of establish some of their ideals in border-towns and these territories were used as experimental examples of Imperia rule, notably forming the micronations of East and West Tzarna in 2017; as such it was concluded that Russia also had an interest in Imperia Dominus' ideals and later supported the part-sovereignty of Tzarna, which became Everington joint operations headquarters with American robotics genius Jeff Parr in secret, allowing him to develop technology for the Imperia alongside Russian military scientist Nestor Kuznetsov.

### **Operational Locations**

**Britain:** Dominus was founded in the UK by British individuals, notably Noel Everington and his followers as the British Pride Militia, though it remained secretive for years and only recently as of 2015 has it had the numbers to attempt activity in the UK; with it's primary directive to eventually overthrow the UK government and destroy Parliament, the Capital and other major cities have since been on high alert. In the January of 2017 an attempted military coup was rumoured within the British Army, but they remained only rumours. In May an attack on two military bases near Manchester stole weapons and ammo, while a month later Imperia Dominus claimed responsibility for the bombing of a hotel in Brighton that killed three Members of Parliament. In August a three SoHo gay bars were raided by 'military types' who opened fire and dragged out an openly gay member of the Marines, who was never found.

**France:** When the BPM started trading weapons and proteptomine formulas with L2 in 2012 the group saw Europe's potential to engage in more military activity, renamed themselves Imperia Dominus, taking on a boarder scope of a subversive operation with influences from the Roman Empire whist retaining their position on Britain being the dominant factor, and were willing to split the group into factions.

**Germany:** Dominus' reach of Germany by the end of 2012 was met with mutual interest in Honour-Watch, though they disagreed on some fundamentals, agreed to trade weapons and share strategic operation and movement data.

**Spain:** Dominus later had a strong presence in Spain, stirring up the Catalan Independence Movement in an effort to 'experiment' on a small independent nation with it's policies, military power and influence.

**The Mediterranean:** Dominus had a concerningly strong following in Italy due to some of some of it's far-right parties and the use of a Redemption sanctuary on the island of Forzali as a garrison; a prominent faction of Dominus known as New Byzantium that also operated in Greece and Turkey began to grow in the area but was kept at bay by Elytra and her husband Rondine.

**Baltic States:** Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were strongly aware of the growth of Imperia Dominus, so much so that a specialised task force known as the Baltic Defence League, that became a subdivision of Rayon was formed. Nevertheless darker, underground influence from Russia seemed to support the idea of Dominus being a subversive influence on the Baltics for a higher power, likely the Kremlin's annexation of the nations. In 2013 an espionage unit led by MI6 agent Montgomery Stewart gathered data that seemed to suggest that Russia was using a mixture of superhumans and military outsourcing to achieve this.

**Russia:** While officially Russia decried Imperia Dominus like all other terrorist organisations, it is known that high-ranking military leaders and Oligarchs supported the use of Dominus like a tool to subvert the nations around it, it was suggested that Dominus may have had a hand in annexing Crimea in 2014, and the VALER organisation's extraction of materials from a Claymore mine, Volt and other members noted the use of non-Russian mercenary units that may have been Dominus. Imperia were, nevertheless, able to form a strong foothold in Russia, if not simply because of it's vast wilderness and space in which to hide, despite opposition form the likes of Redwatch, many Russian military personal seemed to defect to the group, pulled by it's stances and promises.

**America:** The group had a cult following in the United States, but were moreso influencers than had any physical presence, and inspired the like of the Federal Minutemen and Proudbloods.

### **Factions and Allies**

Later in 2016 Dominus groups in America began becoming more and more popular since the election of Donald Trump as president and Qanon and other True Patriot groups were though to be a close spinoff of Dominus, though Dominus themselves disregarded Qanon as cultists, treated them in a friendly manner to use their cult-like ease of influence to unwittingly test the waters of security and social weakness of groups, communities in certain areas; this data was recorded and sent back to Dominus to strengthen their tactics.

#### **The Federal Minutemen**

A group of paramilitary religious fundamentalists who were strongly pro-2nd Amendment, they believed in the core values of Dominus but found the concept of Imperial, specifically British domination repugnant and Un-American and moved away and eventually opposed the idea, becoming enemies of Dominus outright in 2018.

#### **Proudblood Moral Defence League**

Similarly to the Minutemen, the Proudbloods came around in 2019, and were followers of Dominus who believed in their far-right fascist conservatism, but without the British-nationalist core rule; while the were far-less organised, acting more like a gang than a paramilitary group as per the Minutemen's structure, had bigger goals in mind beyond the US and Dominus seemed to gravitate more towards this group after the Minutemen and Dominus feuded, in an effort to become "*some sort of federal imperium*."

The Proudblood also had less of an issue using neohumans and some other enhanced superhumans so long as they were subject to the same beliefs and laws as they saw fit, but a few members saw neohumans in particular as unnatural (even though they were in fact very natural), and lumped them with the same 'unnatural' views of cybrids; who were often treated a lot more negatively.

#### **Ehrenwache Zentral**

The highly anonymised, neo-Nazi cult promoted paramilitary supremacist ideals and openly supported Imperia Dominus and it's allies across the world.

### **World Security Response**

Several organisations and governments have promised to help end the spread of Imperia Dominus, but their continued anonymity, and secret support of some British, European, Russian and American politicians to the group have made finding and rooting out members and hunting for their bases difficult.

In 2018 the UK Minster of National Security said: "*The UK government are committed to finding individuals and supporting institutes of this corrupt and anti-democratic organisation; their continued attempts to undermine and destroy our inclusive and fair modern society with outdated and, frankly, horrifying forms of fascist dictatorship have not gone unnoticed."*

The US Sectary General also responded in 2018: "*The United States and it's fellow allies are strongly supportive of removing the Imperia Dominus organisation, Proudbloods and these so-called Federal Minutemen at their cores. We do not barter or make deals with terrorists and we do not take lightly the threat this organisation represents to free and just democratic society. We are working tirelessly to root out supporters of this organisation from within our own. Anyone found supporting these terrorists will be treated as treasonous to the nation and it's people."*

But Imperia Dominus later made several anonymous posts on quickly-deleted social media sites and bulletin boards across the internet:

*"Imperia Dominus recognises the 'Society' malignant world leaders and so-called 'military personnel' speak of, the impurity within mankind has spread it's toxicity throughout itself. Imperia Dominus requires no political bed for it's future motives, we will simply do what so many have failed, and continue to fail to do every day, every month, every year, and that is to march upon these impurities with a solid and strong boot. We do not tolerate weakness and we will continue to temper the world through fire and war if need be, we will break it and re-forge it to it's past glory, when it was strong, when imperialism would not tolerate insubordination by an elitist ruling class of glorified office workers. These people are not strong. These people are not tolerated. These people will dragged through the streets when our time to rule comes. Be aware, we are not afraid of governments, we are not afraid of superhuman organisations. There are no such thing as heroes. We are not afraid. VINCES OMNES NOS."*
