VANGUARD OPERATIONS INITIATION TERMINAL

WELCOME, RECRUIT

THE VANGUARD is the leading interplanetary coalition dedicated to peaceful exploration, scientific advancements, and unified defense across the known space field. Established during the Unity Accords, we are a collective force of over fifty species and planetary systems working together under an umbrella of shared charter and trust.✦Whether you come from the glacial peaks of Halvyn, the deep-core cities of Tesserat, or the tropicals of Phrylon — your place here is earned, and your voice matters.

We chart the stars, secure the unknown, and carry forward the legacy of unity across worlds.

YOUR ROLE MATTERS

No matter your assignment-- from engine core diagnostics to cross-species communication studies-- your work keeps the Vanguard moving forward. Our success depends on every rank, every species, and every voice.
✦
Your are not alone. You are part of something vast, vital, and alive.

FINAL REMARKS FROM CENTRAL COMMAND

"There is no single map for the stars ahead. But with discipline and unity, we shape a future worth reaching for. Welcome to the Vanguard."

- Former High Commander Velaari , Unity Cycle 427

HISTORY OF THE VANGUARD

Founded in the early era of deep-system expansion, the Vanguard Initiative began as a cross-culteral effort between multiple spacefaring civilizations that were seeking to standardize interstellar exploration, scientific exchange, and peacekeeping diplomacy.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Due to this being an ongoing work in progress, this isn't a comprehensive list. If you have any questions, about my characters/setting, you are more than welcome to reach out to me on Discord or in my comments.
Thank you!

✦ Can I create an OC for the Vanguard?
Yes, absolutely! I just ask that you use my settings/info with proper crediting and tag it with #thevanguardinitiative so that I can find it! Also, I LOVE seeing people interact with my worlds, so feel free to tag me if you post in any servers I'm in! (The Gilded Quill, Critter Den, Io's, etc)Along with this, ALL OTHER RULES APPLY. Follow TOS for your posting site, and I ask that you don't "claim" any official characters.

✦ What species can my OC/Sona be?
Literally anything you want, the universe (and opportunities) are endless! If you decide to use a species that already exists in this setting, please use the species info from my bots for continuity (and credit, please!)

✦ Are you planning to make a bot to fill 'XYZ' role on the ship?
Maybe, maybe not. There are a lot of potential roles/characters for this setting, and my expansions are largely based on my own self-indulgences and requests.If you have a bot you would like to see, you can contact me for commissions and requests on my Kofi <3

✦ Can I make a different organization in this setting?
Sure! I don't own the general concept of a space fleet, so genuinely no worries there. Plus, sci-fi is a REALLY fun setting to explore, and I'd love to work with you if you're looking to add to my universe!

FREE REQUEST FORM

These are not guaranteed to be completed, but I will draw inspiration from requests for future additions to to the Vanguard's roster AND any site suggestions you may have!
