History

Roots and Origin

ISIS, as the name suggests, had its origin in Ancient Egypt, using the name of their god of magic, motherhood, and protection.
Originally a bazaar caravan, the group of merchants that banded together for protection and stability soon began to see the evils in the world around them.
ISIS transformed from a simple bazaar caravan to something more powerful, working with the people over several generations to add more to its repertoire.
They helped people escape poverty, defended them from raiders and pirates, and as the world changed, even helped countries gain independence.
ISIS lost power as technology grew even more rampant, until only a few remained. These few, no more than a handful, made sure their sons and daughters were taught the ways of their forefathers, thus ensuring the creed and tenets of ISIS would be kept alive for future generations.

Current Operations

Now, the universe is expanding and ISIS, transformed to fight against the terrors of hostile space, is calling to its children to once again take up arms in defence of citizens everywhere.
As the call has spread, ISIS daughters and sons are slowly but steadily flocking to its cause.

Since the inception of its current gestalt, ISIS, now renamed Independent Sapients’ Interstellar Services, has had its home base in its small flotilla of ships. Moving from system to system, ISIS recruited among the downtrodden and neglected.
Rumors say that a suitable asteroid has been found and wheels have been set in motion to convert it into a refuge and sanctuary.
Living quarters are planned and should be able to house entire families, complete with schools and self-sustaining hydroponics.

Manifesto

What is Independent Sapients’ Interstellar Services?

In a sprawling interstellar empire such as UEE, people risk becoming tiny cogs in the huge machinery that makes up the infrastructure. ISIS was founded to do whatever is possible to ensure the individual citizens’ rights. As it has been for millennia, money is power, and power is might.

But might does not make right!

ISIS strives to help those who through misfortune or malicious intent have been denied justice and fair treatment.
While ISIS services are not free, they are fair. Our profit margin is there to ensure our fleet is maintainable and eventually to ensure that it will be able expand comfortably. That being said, our fees are negotiable, and will be charged on a case-by-case basis.

It is the intention of ISIS to accomplish both short- and long-term goals by engaging in various forms of revenue-generating tasks, including (but not limited to):
  • Freelancing
  • Cargo hauling
  • Exploration
  • Passenger transportation
  • Security services
  • Bounty hunting
  • Salvage operations
  • Mining

Revenue will be split fairly between ISIS and its members. All profits received by ISIS are to be used on expanding ISIS fleet and expanding its operations.
