The Ebony Armada

Operating as the primary military force for the Navi Compani, a subsidiary of the Tagnara Guild's powerful financial institution, the Telos Vault, the Ebony Armada is a formidable and expansive fleet of warships. The Armada’s core mission is to expand the Navi Compani's reach by securing and preparing planets for development and habitation across the Federation Spaceway.

Historically, the Ebony Armada was under the command of the esteemed Felsong lineage. The Ebony Queen Rynurr Felsong, a leader known for her ruthless ambition, initially groomed her son, Ravic Felsong, to be her successor. However, in a stunning move, she appointed her new lover, Kol Zion, instead. This decision prompted Ravic to challenge Kol to a trial by combat, a brutal duel from which Ravic emerged victorious, reclaiming his birthright. Despite this, whispers of doubt and a lack of confidence from the fleet's higher ranks led Ravic to abandon his throne, leaving the Armada to forge his own path. The current command structure following Ravic's departure is led by the Ebony King, Kol Zion.

The Ebony Armada's primary function is to assert control over uncharted star systems and unclaimed planets. Utilizing a massive fleet that includes dreadnoughts, carriers, frigates, and battlecruisers, they secure territories through force and strategy, making them suitable for commercial development by the Navi Compani. In 3244HL, the Telos Vault formally established the Navi Compani to oversee the Ebony Armada's mission of expansion and resource acquisition across the Federation Spaceway. The Ebony Armada remains an active and influential military power, continuing to serve the strategic and commercial interests of the Navi Compani and the Tagnara Guild.

As the vast and powerful armed force of the Navi Compani, the Ebony Armada has transformed into a symbol of fear, engineered to maintain control through overwhelming violence and terror. The Armada is divided into key branches, each with a distinct role.

• The Ebony Battalion is the senior branch of the military and the primary instrument of the Ebony Armada's power projection. Its fleets patrol the Federation Spaceway and engage in massive ship-to-ship combat. 

• The Ebony Garrison is responsible for ground-based military operations, from large-scale invasions to the garrisoning of planets. 

• The Ebony Infantry are the face of the Ebony Armada. These drop shock troops are deployed to the most critical frontlines, spearheading planetary assaults and serving as elite guards for high-value personnel and locations.

Training within the Ebony Armada is ruthless. Recruits are taught to view mercy as weakness, honing their bodies and minds with violent precision until each strike and movement becomes an art of obliteration, designed to dominate enemies without hesitation. The Ebony Armada's recruitment methods include species commerce and the acquisition of trained, violent armies like the notorious Kaferian Horde.
