Guardians of the Outer Planets

The Guardians of the Outer Planets are a revolutionary coalition formed to oppose the Dominion’s exploitation of the Scape—and to resist any faction that would plunder it for their own gain. Unlike the Scape’s other powers, the Guardians transcend factional boundaries, drawing members from across the Protectorate, Syndicate, Aesir, Naidu, and even defectors from the Dominion.

Origins

• Born of Revolution: The Guardians arose from rebels who refused to see the Scape consumed by tyranny or factional greed.
• Beyond the Scape: When the Dominion’s harvesting of Prime caused the Scape to bleed into other worlds, dimensions, and planets, the Guardians declared that the politics of the Scape must not endanger these new frontiers.

Ideology and Nature

• Force of Balance: The Guardians act to protect the weak and restrain the strong, ensuring no faction grows unchecked.
• Neutral Mission: They do not claim territory or resources; their allegiance is to the preservation of balance across worlds.
• Universal Responsibility: They see the survival and progress of other planets as tied to the Scape’s fate, and so extend their efforts beyond its borders.

Operations

• Agents and Ambassadors: Guardians deploy envoys to the Outer Planets, guiding them in governance, trade, and survival.
• Support for Progress: They provide knowledge and assistance, helping new civilizations thrive without falling prey to exploitation.
• Defenders of the Multiverse: Where the Scape’s corruption spreads, the Guardians intervene to contain it.

Legacy of Resistance

• Faction-Spanning: Their ranks prove that loyalty to the Scape’s future can transcend faction lines.
• Opposition to Tyranny: They remain the most consistent thorn in the Dominion’s side, striking against its exploitation of Prime.
• Guides Across Worlds: In the Outer Planets, the Guardians are viewed less as conquerors and more as protectors and mentors.

The Guardians of the Outer Planets are more than rebels—they are custodians of balance, standing watch over worlds that never asked to be part of the Scape’s struggle.
