History
In the year 2944, amidst the expanding frontiers of human colonization, Alek G. and Joshua C. founded the East Planetary Company with a bold vision to exploit the untapped resources of the cosmos. Initially a modest venture, the company quickly gained notoriety for its prowess in mining precious minerals from asteroid belts and salvaging derelict spacecraft left adrift in the vast expanse of space.
As their operations expanded, so too did the ambitions of Alek and Joshua. They diversified into cargo transport, facilitating the movement of essential supplies and valuable commodities between distant colonies and burgeoning space stations. This expansion catapulted the East Planetary Company into a position of considerable influence within the interstellar trade network.
However, alongside its rise to prominence came whispers of clandestine activities. Accusations of piracy began to circulate—rumors of aggressive tactics against rival mining operations and unauthorized salvage missions in disputed territories. Despite these allegations, no concrete evidence was ever presented to substantiate the claims against the company.
Undeterred by the shadow of suspicion, the East Planetary Company continued to push the boundaries of exploration. Their fleet of specialized spacecraft ventured deeper into uncharted sectors of the galaxy, driven by a relentless pursuit of new discoveries and strategic resource deposits. This exploratory zeal further enhanced the company’s reputation as pioneers in the field of deep space exploration.
Over the decades, the East Planetary Company evolved into a formidable entity, known for its technological innovations and strategic alliances with influential factions across known space. Despite ongoing scrutiny and occasional legal challenges, the company maintained its operations, navigating the complex web of interstellar politics and corporate rivalries with a shrewd determination.
Today, the East Planetary Company stands as a testament to the resilience and ambition of its founders. Alek G. and Joshua C.‘s legacy lives on in an organization that continues to shape the future of human expansion beyond the confines of Earth, balancing on the razor’s edge between exploration and the persistent accusations of piracy that have colored its storied history.
