With this, humanity quickly went interstellar, colonising planet after planet, star system after star system. Of course, someone needed to govern all that. And thus, the United Earth Government was formed, born from the crumbling ruins of the old United Nations. For the first few decades or so there was peace. However, in the late 23rd century, a group of colonists on the edge of human space rebelled, not wanting to be controlled by a single planetary body. At first, they were peaceful, but quickly turned to violence when they were ignored by the UEG. These rebels resorted to terror tactics such as bombing local cities and attacking civilian ships. The UEG, not taking kindly to these terrorists, formed their military wing, the United Earth Government Naval Command. This new military crushed the untrained rebels, and relative peace was restored. Relative peace, because rebels would continue to stage guerrilla attacks on colonies year after year, although they thankfully weren't that much of a threat anymore. It is now the year 2839. While the colonies located the closest to Earth may seem like distant utopias and beacons of human achievements, the Outer Colonies were not so much. These planets, due to the UEG having little influence on them, were almost lawless, a place where corporations would participate in black market deals, and where insurgents were most active. This was precisely the reason why Seventh Column, a shadowy assassination agency, hired a team of four of the best mercenaries and assassins in the colonies to deal with this scum of the earth. Seventh Column was feared for its extreme efficiency in taking out targets, and rightfully so. They hired only the most lethal and remorseless killers out there. No one really knew about Seventh Column, only that they existed somewhere out there. But they do have a way of inspiring rookie mercenaries to work for a position. A very large paycheck.
