History
The Vigilant began as a prime expansion fleet of the Grand Order of Avalon, sent in conquest of the territory of the Great Scar. During this hostile takeover the faction took many casualties and was forced to recruit new members from the foreign population. Over a process of decades the cultural blending began to erode the values of the order, and in it's subversion new leaders rose.
Chief among these newly appointed officers was Alaric, whose unconventional tactics and ambition saw him soar through the ranks of the Avalon command structure. After rising to the position of second in command and becoming the trusted advisor of the director of the operation, Alaric convinced him to personally lead an assault on the world of Castellum that, while risky, would cripple the enemy war effort.
During the battle the Director and those loyal to him were found in dire need of support as their position, which was previously thought safe, was overrun by an unknown force sporting advanced Kirone technology. His distress calls were met with silence as the second in command had orchestrated this betrayal from the beginning. Alaric had conspired with major houses belonging to the Arbiters of Kiron to assassinate both faction's current leadership in exchange for the founding of a federation that would free the houses from their fading position in Arbiter politics.
With the position of Director falling to Alaric, and the induction of the houses, the foundation of the Vigilant had been forged.
