(cool flag made by @Jared, he good.)
(A bit wip, ill add stuff as i go, if somethings up or if i forgot somthin, speak up in de disc.)
C.L.A.W (The Confederacy and Longevity of Arrots and our Worlds)
After some time for themselves the Claw government has decided to expand rapidly.
Claw is a primarily crime focused faction, their origins unknown though what is known is their greed and sketchy buisness.
History... or whats peiced together.
(As events go ill add to this.)
The history of their sudden apperance is not fully discovered, the second worshippers of Tharizdun, and once a left behind colony.
Their arrival was one of mystery, how did they come, and from what?
Society and politics
The claw government is ruled by a queen, her magesty Karliene, not really seen though as her public apperance is not frequent.
With the queen there is a group of 20 lords, each with loads of power securing their highranking posision, the reason for the lords's power is that theyre ganglords.
Claw does have a main government but outside of that there are the thousands maybe millions of gangs, each one fighting for riches and power. And with the governments support of crime they are fully allowed to.
Race
There is seen to only be one kind of intelligent race in the Claw, the arrot.
Average hight standing about 1 meter tall, these creatures have a strange behaviour of immense greed and loyalty to the government.
They are of an avian look, much like a crow, their feathers and beak both black.
Besides being avian they also lack wings, only being able to get them using special spells.
One strange note is that they dont seem to have sexual organs, yet they seem to be multiplying like other races.
Systems and planets
With their recent expansion, CLAW has taken 15 systems, and have slowed a bit down with taking more recently.
(I wont go over all of them, that would be too long.)
Their production complexes include for now only 1 shipyard, though Claw does posess many scrap-shipyards, where they produce ships from the leftover parts of the many ships they've stolen and scrapped.
Home system: Trezz
Homeworld: Bird's Nest
Where they began. Bird's Nest is an industrial city planet turned a criminal mess. Its skies filled with smoke and pollution, and its streets always filled with all kinds of criminal acts.
Fleets
Claw has about 5 fleets, with their designated roles:
Annihilation Flotilla: The raiding fleet, mostly used towards civillian ships, their style resembles that of pirates.
Valor Armada: The main attack fleet, used mostly towards wars and international conflicts.
Radical Defence Service: The defence fleet used to protect all kinds of stuff, it is the most powerful fleet.
Royal Force: A fleet of its own, used to protect higher ranking officials and the royal family.
Bastion Armada: The second most powerful fleet, stationed around CLAW territory and used as a reserve.
Ships
(Imma add these later, im just lazy and in my opinion creating ships in cosmoteer is kinda boring :/ )
Authority
Arrots are naturally greedy and violent, resulting in the civillian populus being kind of its own defence, most likely killing outsiders for their valuables.
The government's military acts like a higher power, often supressing the more destructive civillian conflicts highly violently.
The claw government has also come to the decision of brutally enslaving a part of their arrot populus, this part has been known of having white feathers and gooder-nature than their greedy counterpart. Though no efforts of rebellion is seen as the effect of heavy loyalty still hoveres, even over those brutally manipulated.
Army
Even though Claw is known for often using their hyper-agressive civillians for homeground protection, they still have a professional force.
The claw army isnt the biggest, though the equipment and training are both focused heavily on. The claw army is more focused on infantry, with armoured vehicles being minimaly enlisted and motorized at a bit higher numbers. Though even with mostly infantry, they are equipped to most situations, with anti-tank, artillery and such to counter any enemy.
The royal force; used to protect the homeland of Birds-nest, is a feared force. Being heavily trained and equipped with armour and weapons enough to enforce enough so at least the citizen dont blow anything down.
Tech
The technoligy Claw posesses is very random, with their method of gaining being of stealing ships then reverse engineering it. As of that, it results in scrap-ship power being always different.
Claw does also have a large ammount of magical prowess, gaining it from the god they worship: Tharizdun
(Secret info, this means your faction probably doesnt know of it.) One of the biggest gifts and highly secretive is the life fountain, allowing the civillians to have an immortal life: It takes the soul of a dead arrot and creates a body for it, practically reviving it. This is the reason for the arotts's hyper agressiveness, they arent afraid of "dead" cause they can just come back from the fountain.
This includes what kinds of magical things the trained people of claw can do:
Feathered cloak:
This allowes users to dissapear, going invisible with a cloud of black feathers.
Transport wing
Used in larger quanteties with ships, a larde sphere of black feathers surrounds the user / ship and with a poof transports it to the target destination.
