We are The White Scar Contingency an LGBT+ friendly player group with a focus on enjoyment for all players both new and old. We seek to become a core group in the Elite Dangerous community and spread our influence to as many other factions as possible to provide an enriching and fulfilling atmosphere and enhance our players’ Elite Dangerous experience.*

We were founded under three key principals:

1. Fun and enjoyment trumps all; we will always consider the enjoyment of the game before the mechanics of the faction

2. Make your mark, help our players have their big moments out in the galaxy.

3. Open and transparent leadership. Everyone in the White Scar Contingency gets a say, everyone gets considered.

Goals:

1. Conquer a small region of space through BGS, carving out a niche of the galaxy to call our own.

2. Provide a player group with unlimited play styles all represented in potential lore and have broad equal play opportunities for players interested in rp and those that are not.

3. Upon reaching high enough membership, establishing a community outreach initiative to aid other player factions with pve work of all kinds including BGS aid, BGS consulting, Thargoid fighter reinforcement, and anything else a player group may request help with in exchange only for their alliance and a chance we may call on them should we ever require help of our own

We’ve been busy

We finally did it.

It took longer than most of us had hoped, thanks to a few mistakes here and there, but it’s here. Through determination, dedication and help from alliances, we’re finally in control of Dakshmandi.

We’re not far off being able to expand, too. By the end of the week, the Overseers hope to set out to take another system. We’ve got plenty more fight left.

Our work is not done here, not by far, but for tonight, we celebrate. Drink and be merry. I hope this good luck will continue.

I can happily say we’ve shed our past and we’re here to move on.

Pyemmairre’s phoenixes rise again. Rule again. Succeed again. 

Virtute Simul, friends.

Hallowed Ground

SHIP LOG DATED 20th October, 3304.

It wasn’t too long ago when I called this place home. Just a few months ago I’d spend every second of free time coming in and out of that mail slot, assisting Noirceur and trying to make our little corner of space important. Just trying to leave a mark for myself. 

That’s all I’ve ever wanted. I want to be remembered. When I breathe my last breath and close my eyes, I want to be remembered. 

But that’s not how it worked out this time.

After months of hard work, working long hours for just a few dozen credits, this is what I’m rewarded with. A dying faction, left in the hands of complete morons, an empty station, and a psychotic child with messiah complex and a vendetta against my friends.

I suppose that’s what you get when you put all your faith into people like her.

We’ll overcome her soon enough. She’s passionate in her hatred, but we’re stronger. We’ll take this challenge as we take any challenge. Head first, with an army of allies behind us. 

The Reign, The Clan, The Unkindness, The Conroi and The Shoal. Alone we are nothing. Together, we’re invincible.

Its Been a Long Few Weeks.

If I were to say that progress has been stunning, if I were to say that our prospects and outlooks have been high and our morale strong…that would be a lie.

As feared our faction has faced opposition from those that would see us struggle, those that would have us surrender our causes both as an organization and as individuals. There are those that would see us destroyed and run off from our new home, but the truth I can say is that we have not paled before them. My division, The Reign, we fly to overcome fear, we fly to push our limits, test the boundaries and break them, and the White Scar Contingency seeks to find unity among other pilots throughout the galaxy. Though I hope no one ever mistakes my actions for perfection, I hope that those that come will see that I have acted in the best interest of those values and goals.

I have taken it upon myself to conduct a diplomatic outreach to two larger factions to create our first actionable bonds. These groups, our neighbors of Lavigny’s Legion, and the A.R.C. Defenders wing have agreed to broker an alliance with us and provide aid to our struggle so that we may no longer have to fear our fight is in vain.

It is my hope, my dream, that this system becomes a hub for all pilots of all allegiances, of all starry routes to commune with each other. I want this to be a place of shared experiences, where heart and mind meld to form bonds across the stars, where our faction becomes the heart of a new galactic initiative to co-exist if not peacefully than at least with a place that is exempt from the polarity that strangles humanity.

I am proud of everyone of our pilots for the fight they have commited to our cause, the blood sweat and tears spilled in commitment to our creed Virtute Simul, for indeed we are stronger together.

And I will ensure you see the fruits of your struggle.

Today we finalized our insignia for the Contingent. Five unique animal symbols over our bright white star inseparably intertwined; representing the shadows we cast IE our impact on the system, and the strength of the group through our union. Each symbol bearing a scar to show the strength we gained overcoming adversity. I couldn’t have asked for a better symbol. Soon this emblem, this coat of arms, will fly proudly throughout the system. Soon we will make our mark.

Omega Sector.

LOG DATE: 04:12, 10th of September, 3304.

5500 lightyears is a long way to travel just to escape your problems. I've always preferred running over fighting, it's just my nature. Out here, there's nothing to bother me. No tedious relations, rivalries or fights. Nothing to distract me.

No one left to hurt me.

After the collapse of Noirceur, I ran. I ran far, deep into the galactic core. I felt scared by how quickly they turned on me.

My time there was short, but left a deep mark. I made friends and had some of the best experiences in my life, but it was never easy under The Autarch. She's a powerful woman, someone I've always feared.

But now isn't the time to worry about her. She can't reach me out here.

I know I can't stay out here forever. One day, I'll head back to Dakshmandi. I'll help to claim our new home. I'll have the energy and the will to fight back. I'll be better.

But for now, I rest. Watching the Omega Sector from the cockpit of The Golden Hind.
