You will be able to choose between TWO factions in Chapter 03. Sanctuary Industries Corporation (SIC) and a non-NPC Pirates faction, name to be determined. Players MAY choose to remain unaffiliated, but creating your own faction is not allowed.
Anyone is allowed to join SIC, but there will be work involved (but also pay and supplies). Pirates will receive some starting benefits, but will not be supplied, nor paid, but they don't have to brush their teeth or go to bed on time either. Freemen (unaffiliated) will receive no bonuses of any sort.
More factions may be introduced as the story progresses. If you have suggestions please let me know!

You can post here, or let me know via message/email which faction you would like to join (or if you wish to stay unaffiliated). Your Faction will determine your home, mission, starting supplies, etc. I'm hoping that this will assist in the teams/factions getting organized or aquainted with one another. I'm working on getting information on a mod that should allow the process to be automated but right now it doesn't say if it will allow unaffiliated as a choice. The Factions: Sanctuary Industries CorporationSanctuary Industries is the corporation that sent the first expedition into Velkuri space after many many years. The sleeper ships sent into the mysterious nebula never returned, and it was always assumed that all hands and colonists were lost. Under the leadership of CEO Elorrah Avarion, the small exploration company went from small startup buisness to mega-corp in a few short years. When Elorrah led the expedition into the nebula herself and was out of contact for some time, the Board of Directors pulled a power play and had her ousted. They could not have a CEO who ran the business from afield. This also allowed them to advance projects that she had quashed. It was quoted that their CEO was a little too "morally stiff". SIC skins will be these. A, B, CThe PerigrineThe Perigrine are a roaming pack of engineers, miners, soldiers and other lost adventurers and explorers. They are travellers and wanderers, sticking together and often barely scraping enough to survive out of wherever they end up. They trade their myriad skills and talents as a way of life, though there are some that view them as a nusiance. They don't care much for law, but that doesn't mean they aren't good hearted folk. When pressed, the Perigrine have shown that they are a force to be reckoned with. Most people will just shy away from them when they show up in their tattered and weathered suits and ships. That suits the Perigrine just fine. |

Well, my in-game character, gchristopher, will definitely be unaffiliated.
He was an unlikely survivor of the exploration company led by Ellorrah and when contact was reestablished with SIC, found that his contract (as galley's mate, 3rd class) was terminated by SIC. He applied for new employment and received the response:
Lacking any employer, and also probably equally unsuited to piracy, gchristopher remains on his own, trying desperately to figure out how to operate the radio, food production, and human waste disposal systems on his increasingly large cobbled-together hulk of a ship.
At least he has a ship, bits and pieces of which trace back to salvage from the original Sanctuary Base. gchristopher's not sure if they were important bits, and probably doesn't want to know, since SIC would probably hunt him down and confiscate them.

Oh, and a question: how will NoPVP work now? Still not remotely interested in PVP.

Umm choices, choices... considering I like working with others, not really into pirating, I think I will go SIC. Similar to gchristopher I am not really a pvper, but I do / have dabbled into it in other games. (Unless Keen puts in a handheld version of Big-Bertha  If you dont get it, see my post in Chapter 3 mod list, pg. 2.) |

Will the Peregrine (PGE) group please step forward? It's time to be shown to your planet...
