History and General Information:

Forged in 2400 as the Merchants sector by a man known as Isaac Beeching, a baker, Born on Mars, Olympia, in 2378.

The Humanitarian Sector started off as a group of concerened, middle class, business men who would meet in Isaac's basement and discuss the state of the city's merchants, and agree on price limits and the such for certain goods, to keep things fair. In 2408 the Skrell population had already began to merge with the Human's and as such, Skrell business men were cropping up in the area and undercutting the Human merchants, exotic Skrellian goods for much cheaper than the goods the Human merchants were selling, not to mention the excitement that people felt when they were around a real life Alien.

Isaac was quite a charismatic man, and convinced his fellow business men that action needed to be taken, so the Merchant's sector went door to door, knocking on Skrellian businesses and asking them to join, the Skrell were most likely confused as most of them hadn't had much time to learn Sol Common.

Beeching, obviously angered by the Skrell's apparent ignorant behaviour, decided that drastic action must be taken. He gathered all the Merchant's sector and asked them to join him on attacking the Skrell cake store, many agreed, angered by other things just needing a release. So they walked the street at midnight, carrying pipes, bats and whatever they could find; Beeching carried a small firearm that he had purchased that very day, with his last credits, hoping this would save his business.

As his followers, numbering in around ten men, broke through the Skrellian shop's door and ran upstairs. Beeching had commanded them to bring the Skrell out, and they did, only they brought his wife and kid too. As all three were thrown out onto the cobbled streets, the Skrellian Merchant crawled to the leader and begged for his wife and child's life, in Skrellian, this only served to anger Beeching and he threw the merchant to his followers, the child and wife.. were next.

Though Isaac was a charismatic man, he wasn't always a smart one, his actions this day made him a wanted man, and so he got on the next ship to Biesel, accompanied by his followers. As time went on and rumours were spread about a political sect known as the Humanitarian Sector, claiming to fight for freedom of humans everywhere, from the tyranny of Alien races, any who supported the cause wore blue armbands to represent their pride in humanity, the blue armbaned was usually emblazoned with the Humanitarian Sector's white symbol.

Not all of these supporters were hostile however, many were just people who believed humanity would lead them to a brighter future, and they wore the armbands to say they were proud to be humans, many of these also lead to small blue pins being made with the Humanitarian Sector sigil on them, for pinning onto suits, and dresses and any attire really.

But the event that stoked the fires of hatred was the Emergence of Unathi Marauders, the event was bloody and made many politicians believe Beeching was right in his distrust and hatred of Aliens, Wealthy businessmen began to fund the organisation, and before long.. The Skrell Embassy on Alpha Centauri-b was attacked by a lone suited man, wearing a blue pin, it was suspected that his suitcase housed a bomb but the explosive's detonation killed everyone in the building, ridding it of most of the evidence.

After that attack, Isaac Beeching was branded a Wanted Terrorist by every discovered Sentient government, the Skrellian government was outraged and wanted reparations, which they got, the Union of Sol was unwilling to risk their alliance with the Skrell, and their ships are hunting Beeching even now. People still wear the pins and armbands with little trouble, although the other Alien Embassies all around, have stepped up their security, and many Alien business' have barred people wearing the sigil, from entering their stores.

As it stands Isaac Beeching is one of the most wanted men in the galaxy, with the combined bounty total of 5,000,000 Credits.

Wearing the pin is no longer considered criminal as the Union of Sol believes the Humanitarian Sector is now considered a peaceful organisation with goals only to benefit humanity. Isaac and his men, are considered to be terrorists and extremists.

OOC NOTES: Yes I realise Vitorri has tried to create human supremacist groups before but this one was actually in our lore, it just had to be re-written after we changed a bunch, it used to be called the Humanitarian Union. Also second of all please don't mistake me for some alien hater - I play many xenos myself I'd just like to see more dynamics between the races. Third, no I'm not a racist, I just think that this adds a certain realism. Anyway thanks for reading.

I don't find it hard to believe this kind of group would show up in a world where other species co-existed with humans. And that back story shouldn't be to hard to explain to people who don't what to read a wall of text.

[mrimatool]

Only just realised I put it in the wrong format, this was because I had it in a different format, sorry lore people, I'll change it if need be.

@badlemons yeah it was an idea we came up with back on Apollo before we split into Aurora, it used to be called the Humanitarian Union and was in our lore I'm just not sure if it got put back in when we retconned a lot of stuff. Anyway thanks for the reply

The only real problem I have with this is that it's a terrorist organization that manages to masquerade as a peaceful organization.

In real life this wouldn't work. People aren't obtuse enough to see past organizations that have a very obvious radical agenda.

If we're going to be acknowledging terrorist organizations in our lore, then ICly, they need to be recognized as radical terrorists by any and all. And nothing else.

Any helpful organization or movement in real life would be very difficult to trust if people connected terrorist activity to them.

I mean, I like the idea and all. But I think this organization would be better placed as perhaps a Syndicate subcell or associate splinter cell.

To kind of add onto the above point, Syndicate lore is being developed a bit more so that it still maintains some sort of relevance within the Aurora universe.

[mrimatool]

Right, time to clear some things up since I might not have described it best. some answers for you 1138.

The terrorist organisation isn't masquerading as a peaceful one. Some honestly decent people decided to take their logo and associate it with something good, they want to better humanity, not kill all the aliens.

The extremist group is the terrorists, we have extremists these days and they in no way represent the majority, granted bad things happen to good people because of their bad habits but still I don't see it as that bad a stretch that a peaceful organisation(think roman church) that has a background in killings(think knights templar) would be so hard to believe.

And the reason they're not syndicate is because they're almost cult like in their beliefs, they wouldn't do the Syndicate's bidding. Also the syndicate are a bunch of corporations that do good things but hate competition.

Anyway I hope that answered your concerns, just tell me if there's anything else?

Extremists in no way represent the majority? What do you call the general Western attitude towards Muslims?

[mrimatool]

I'm saying that the majority of Muslims are NOT extremists, people have the common misconception that they are but they're not, otherwise there would be a lot harsher regulations when it comes to the religion.

The HS are like that, the government is aware that there are certain terrorists following the same beliefs, but that doesn't mean people aren't allowed to follow said beliefs.

Fair enough, I'd support this

[Guest Marlon Phoenix]

This place as it stands works for me. One last thing: How many characters are involved with this as a backstory?

[mrimatool]

Just a couple, the idea was for it to be implemented to allow for more people to join it as a less "kill all xenos" human faction and more of a "humans are good" faction.
