Description:

Clan Kyodain is an unusually large and well organized Seraphim Clan. Like all other Seraphim Clans, Kyodain made the centuries long journey across the abyss between galaxies to escape a threat unknown even by the AIs on their moon-sized motherships. Thus making Kyodain a relatively new species in the galaxy at large and still unfamiliar with the majority of galactic customs and traditions. Individuals of Clan Kyodain operate on a code of honor which dictates honesty and fairness to all they interact with.

Unlike most Seraphim clans, Kyodain is not based around piracy as a means to survive. Instead, Clan Kyodain wishes to expand by drawing others in with their open arms ideology. By accepting new species into their society, they intend to create a kingdom of harmony where all will start on the same level and then be able to earn exactly what they deserve. They also plan on uniting the entire Seraphim race under one banner once again.

Make no mistakes, however. Clan Kyodain might be open and friendly, but there is line you can cross that will anger them. Chiefly committing unjust acts of violence or dishonoring their code. Clan Kyodain is more than prepared to retaliate with force should anything like that happen.

--------------------------------------------




Current Ranks:


Anyone may join Clan Kyodain's ranks simply by visiting the merc recruitment center on Allui Station. Enlisting as a full time merc will give characters access to Kyodain technology and allies.

Kyodain Mercenary: The first rank. Anyone can be a Kyodain Mercenary, whether full time or not. All they have to do is sign a simple contract stating that you will do work for the Seraphim in return for a tidbit of their advanced technology. Mercenaries will be given their choice of weapons among the basic Kyodain arsenal: An Arc Rifle, Arc Pistol, and a Kinetic Shield

Honor-Rigger: The second rank only a full time mercenary can earn. By now, the individual will have proven himself invaluable to the Seraphim cause and will be given access to the full Kyodain arsenal and given command of a Kyodain Panzer-Class Frigate, which comes loaded with three dropships and two squadrons of battlesuits. After taking the proper training, a member might be able to pilot one of these battlesuits themselves. 


Honor-Master/Honor-Knight: At this point, the individual must make a choice to either become the honorary equivalent of a Tech-Master or a Tech-Knight. The Honor-Master is given command of a scout frigate in addition to two normal frigates and is now capable of calling upon Clan Kyodain for assistance in his or her adventures throughout the galaxy. An Honor-Knight is an individual who took Battlesuit pilot training. He or she granted full access to Kyodain's lineup of battlesuits in addition to a three squadrons of of Tech-Knights directly under their command.

--------------------------------

Of course, a seraphim character who starts in Clan Kyodain may start with some advantages compared to a character who joins through a mercenary contract. A starting member of Clan Kyodain can either be Seraphim from Lux Donum or an Elf/Dwarf/Human from planet Talin.

Rigger: The basic rank for all Kyodain. Instead of a single combat frigate, you will be given control of three and have full access to the Kyodain battlesuit lineup and arsenal.

Tech-Master: A number of Kyodain will be ready to jump to your aid at any given time even though you are only given command of a scout frigate, flanked by your three combat frigate as well as a number of dropships and battlesuits. 

Tech-Knight: Kyodain trusts you as a guardian and upholder of it's code of honor. You will be given full access to the Kyodain battlesuit lineup as well as command over five squadrons of Tech-Knights, each consisting of five battlesuits and tech-knights.

Current Loations:

Spoiler:

Lux Donum: A lucky find and a cradle of life. Clan Kyodain stumbled upon this system early upon their arrival in the Milky Way galaxy. This is the center of all activity for Kyodain, and their most important system. It is home to their Four core motherships in addition to their beautiful young planet. It is surrounded by an early detection system to warn Kyodain of any unexpected entry to the system and numerous stations and outposts are scattered throughout the system to take full advantage of the system's abundant resources.

Spoiler:

Allui Station (unofficial): A place inspired by the Nypherians' Vermire Station and constructed by Clan Kyodain. Allui Station is a place where all races can interact if they please. The outer ring of the station is completely open to the public, which allows species from all over the galactic northeast to share their goods, share news, and generally be friendly with one another. This is the first location staffed with Kyodain Guardians, a group of officials who are dedicated to keeping the peace onboard the station.

Spoiler:

Talin: An agricultural world, Talin has little to no natural resources of it's own. Anything notable within the system is contained within a large asteroid belt contained just inside a set of two larger gas-giants. There are few major cities on the planet, with most of the settlements being smaller farm-centric communities ranging anywhere between 5,000-50,000 inhabitants. It joined Kyodain with the fear that they would be the next to succumb to an assault by The Immortals, further deepening their friendship and causing an influx of new Kyodain members.


--------------------------------------------

Current Alliances:


Nypherian Empire: The two are now in a close relationsip, consistently exchanging technology and even havind developed an officer exchange program, further deepening the bond between the two factions.

The Tower: An army of humans based off an ice planet called Black Garden, they are currently embarking on a crusade to "destroy all evil". Highly aggressive in Kyodain's opinion, but they have created a beneficial trade alliance in which they exchange technology for food.
