Red Death (faction)
The Red Death is an ancient organization that has always been at war with all known nations. Sometimes they are quiet, letting known space nearly forget about their presence before attacking again, though they are never truly at rest. The main force of their aggression seem to be focused on Atlantis and Stelania, and have even destroyed both nations in the past, driving both the Stelanian and Atlantian species to near extinction. Even though both nations have made a come-back, this does not mean that the Red Death is any less of a threat. They have a military force able to match any other one nation, however it is the alliance of nations that keeps them at bay.
The Red Death are a military empire, led by a leader that is chosen by a secret means that is a mystery to even the highest ranking members. While most of the population is military, there is also a "civilian" rank, which denotes those who have non-combat jobs. The Red Death classifies all its members by job class and rank, the lowest member being a D-class civilian, the highest being the S-class god. There are also normal unranked civilians that are ruled by the Red Death, who see them as a normal government that both governs and protects the citizenry.
The Red Death operates in a mixture of methods, blending covert, overt, and scientific means. The Red Death is best known for its interest in psionics and bioengineering, and has a large amount of space and resources dedicated to laboratories and factories where different kinds of soldiers are manufactured. They also have a large amount of soldiers that are merely modified from their base species, some to the extremes of becoming a brand new species.
The Red Death are responsible for creating a few new species, the best known are:
<ul type="disc]<li>Kathar: Humanoid beings with black scaled skin, alcoholic and flammable blood, and large fleshy wings for climbing. They are flightless, but tough and hardy, so long as they are not exposed to flames. They were created from the genetic modification of the Stelanian, Xaven Karusashi.
</li><li>Acidian: Humanoid beings that tend to be dark green or black, with highly acidic body fluids, to the point that skin to skin contact causes rash. They are no tougher than baseline humans, but tend to be more aggressive. They were created from the dna of the hydra species, as well as that of humans.
</li><li>Confessor: Naga-like beings with four arms, four eyes, four ears, and long hard claws able to pierce a human skull. They have powerful psionic abilities, and are in wide use and production throughout the Red Death. Their abilities range from mind reading to telekinesis and are the most feared creation of the Red Death. They were created from mainly indigo and atlantian dna, with traces of many other sources.
</li><li>Confessor Sylphs: Though they appear to be normal Stelanians, they are not quite as physically tough. They also have powerful psionic abilities, but do not reach the strength of normal confessors. They are used for covert operations. They were created from confessor and stelanian dna.</li></ul>
The Red Death are also known for their space craft which are all known by dragon-related classifications:
<ul type="disc]<li>Drake Engine: Fast, light, fighter-class ships carried in bulk with larger ships. Never far from a base or a carrier, they are not meant for long-range travel and have no ftl capabilities.
</li><li>Dragon Engine: Cruiser-class ships meant for utility use. Usually carrying cargo or troops, but not quite large enough to carry fighters. They are fairly quick and fairly tough, though are often out-classed by ships of other makes.
</li><li>Wyrm Engine: Carrier-class ships used to support Tiamaat Engines with high firepower and large swarms of Drake Engines. Tough and powerful, their weak point is their low maneuverability.
</li><li>Tiamaat Engine: Capital-class ships equipped with high-powered beams meant for glassing planets. They are not maneuverable, but they are highly shielded. As of yet, the only recorded destruction of Tiamaat Engines have been though use of Stelanian blue ships.</li></ul>
