Sfora
Origin and History
Sfora is a group of what was left from a once-vivid human colony, driven by a shared desire for survival. They do not talk about what actually happened on their origin planet, but the calendar they used marked the day as a day of sadness. What is known is that approximately 600 families had to abandon their home planet in one day. They fled on a fleet of small and mid-sized ships.
Nevertheless, each family had a unique background, from former soldiers and engineers to rogue scientists and even royalty. They teamed up to form one organization. They called themselves Sfora, a name that meant "pack" in their ancient tongue. They developed a supportive community wandering through the galaxy. To survive, they had to develop unique cooperative tactics and ways to use their knowledge. United by their common origin and goal, they slowly became a force to be reckoned with.
Due to their frequent lack of adequate resources and advanced technology, they began acquiring them by completing paid assignments. Often, these tasks involved repairing sophisticated equipment or technical consulting, but they did not shy away from purely military contracts either. Most often, they carried out their tasks quietly, avoiding unnecessary attention during execution. However, when necessary, they struck loudly and forcefully. All of this quickly gained them a reputation for their high combat and engineering skills.
Fleet
Their ships had been rebuilt into modular types so they could fly independently or be joined as needed into different variations. Usually, they formed a carrier for smaller ships and were pushed through the galaxy by a few bigger tug-ships. It is not known how many ships are in Sfora's fleet. They are constantly being rebuilt, joined, or separated. They also tend to use a lot of drones and remotely controlled units, making it harder to count. One of their tactics (at space or on the ground) involves conducting combat using a vehicle piloted by a human or remotely controlled by them, surrounded by several other automated drones, including those supported by their own AI. This form formations resembling fightings-packs, from which they possibly derived their name.
What is more origin families are growing bigger, and some new members joined the organization after the original pack left their home planet.
ARMCO
After some time on their way through the galaxy, they met the ARMCO Fleet, where they found many similarities to themselves. Since then they closely cooperate.
Not verified informations
- They use claws and wolf like tails as their amulets and internal symbols.
- Some lesser-known information is that Sfora has sources to deliver equipment like tanks, VTOLs, and other items to its customers. And ARMCO uses some of them. Their well-kept secret is whether they build these on their ships or have some hidden manufacturing facility.
