This will be my faction [hider=Volcron Initiative] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/logo.121561/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]The Volcron Initiative[/b][/color][/center] [right]The [color=1a7b30]Volcron Initiative[/color] is a group of scientists that has mysterious origins. Although small in manpower, they are bolstered by their huge amounts of demonic-powered robots. They are quite isolationist but are very diplomatic and easy to make deals with. Their mysterious leader Volcron Akastenin leads their small band intellectuals and their autonomous demonatron army. They have made their home in Vestrosya as a small power. They are welcoming to foreigners and are very negotiable.[/right] [hider=Major Characters] [hider=Volcron Akastenin] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/stuff.121525/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Head Felgineer Volcron Akastenin[/b][/color][/center] [right]Always appearing fully clad in demonic armor just like most of his brethen, Volcron Akastenin is as mysterious as his whole organization. He is skilled in engineering, diplomacy and magics. Although appearing cold, he is quite friendly and cheerful but he just doesn't know how to show it due to some kind of childhood experience. He has a hatred for war, bloodshed and most importantly, Slavery. He will do anything in his hands to free slaves or help them rebuild their lives. This is true as most members of his former organization are exslaves, so much that his personal bodyguard, right-hand [s]man[/s]woman.. and his beloved wife was freed by him..[/right] [/hider] [hider=Risaya Akastenin] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/stuff.121526/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]First Citadelguard Risaya Akastenin[/b][/color][/center] [right]Former slave, gladiator and forced prostitute, Risaya Akastenin serves as Volcron's second-in-command and his wife. Like Volcron, she always appear in full armor and weapons, being his bodyguard. Risaya and Volcron first met when Volcron raided a satanist gang many years ago. When Volcron found her, she was a half-demon, half-human slave that could barely walk, much less talk and being the sadistic boss' "favorite" had a physical and mental toll on her. Volcron, pitying her, took her under his arms. He taught her how to read, write, talk and nurtured her back to health. During the process, Risaya and Volcron fell in love and married shortly after she was back in health. She is physically stronger than Volcron but her emotional status is still damaged, causing her to have psychopathic outbreaks once in a while, which can only be calmed down by Volcron. She takes Volcron as her savior and lover and only listens to him. She is a potent close-combat fighter, markswoman and hand-to-hand fighter. Although cold in public, she and Voltron are quite playful privately and would usually tease and joke with each other a lot of times.[/right] [/hider] [hider=Agarmondius] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/stuff.121527/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Head Director Agarmondius[/b][/color][/center] [right]A dwarven scientist who oversees the R&D department of the Volcron Initiative. He is very jolly, even in the midst of stress and danger. An exiled scientist due to his bizarre inventions, he wandered around trying to survive until Volcron picked him up. Seeing a creative intelligence inside him, Volcron put him in charge of directing his researches and directives, which Agarmondius does with joyful glee and creativity. He doesn't care what he creates, as long as it works..[/right] [/hider] [/hider] [hider=The Citadel] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/fortress-monastery_um.121528/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]The Citadel[/b][/color][/center] [right]A former fortress for the Black Hounds, a elven theocratic organization that was completely eradicated by Volcron at the start of his conquest. Seeing the strategic value of this large fortification, Volcron converted it into his capital. The Citadel provides adequate space for his followers while it's underground complexes were used for production and storage of mass amounts of demonatrons. It also sports high walls which is soon fortified by huge amounts of defenses and bots. The outer areas are converted into a leisure area with parks, pools and sport fields.[/right] [/hider] [hider=Zylos II] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/zylos-ii.121549/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Zylos II[/b][/color][/center] [right]A massive space-station that is situated in the orbit of Vestrosya. The original Zylos I was abandoned after it was nearing a black hole, which sucked it in a few days after evacuation was done. Zylos II was created and launched into space a century ago. It has a huge demon core in the middle which generates a force-field and power the station. It has it's own dorms for living, indoor leisure areas, automated defenses, repairs, supply production and several large spaceports.[/right] [/hider] [hider=Military] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Military[/b][/color][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]"Lives are precious, materials aren't!" Motto of the Citadelguard[/b][/color][/center] The doctrine of the Volcron Initiative are highly defensive, relying on long-ranged bombardment. For them, lives matter more than victory. They can take on long wars of attrition due to the fact that every robot they lost, more can be manufactured while the enemy will have huge losses in manpower that would soon drain their ability to wage war. Their robots are granted autonomy and are not controlled by a central command structure, making them invulnerable to "central command hacks". The only way to hack them is if you can manage to incapacitate a robot without making them self-destruct and recode it.. which isn't easy.. Every robot is powered by an internal "demon" core which powers the bot and the core itself is the "code". Every bot has the core protected by several layers of enhanced felsteel plates. The core is not very durable and once the core is destroyed, the bot becomes just a husk.

They are quality over quantity troops who fight with power-armor and state-of-art weapons and equipment. Recruitment is non-discriminatory of race and gender. Since most of the Initiative's members are scientists, their numbers are usually around only 200-300. Citadelguards fight on the frontlines but spend most of their time guarding the citadel, although in times of conflict, they are to fight on the front and the security of the Citadel falls into the CItadel Security's hands.[/right] [/hider] [hider=Citadel Security] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/stuff.121529/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Citadel Security[/b][/color][/center] [right]More of a policing force than a military one, the Citadel Security patrols the Citadel 24-hours a day, maintaining order. However, if the Citadel was ever under attack, the security would join the combat alongside the Citadelguard. They number around 300-400. Some Citadel Securities are promoted to Citadelguards for their services if possible.[/right] [/hider] [hider=Zylos Security] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/zylos-security.121554/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Zylos Security[/b][/color][/center] [right]Trained in Space Warfare, they are the equivalent of Citadel Securities but wear lighter armor and are completely equipped with equipment necessary to survive in space. They are always stationed on Zylos II and number around 200-300 only.[/right] [/hider] [/hider] [hider=Robots] [hider=Labortron] [center][IMG]https://www.hiveworkshop.com/media/labortron.121531/full[/IMG][/center] [center][color=1a7b30][b]Labortron[/b][/color][/center] [right]Construction, repairs and other manual labor are done by these bots.
