Prometheus moves forward
History
Prometheus was founded in the wake of the UEE’s prolonged engagements with the Vanduul and the growing uncertainty surrounding the Empire’s military and political stability. A small but diverse group of UEE veterans — former officers, engineers, scientists, medics, and combat experts —sought a path that strayed from the Empire’s rigid control and hierarchical limitations. These veterans, each of whom had felt the weight of years spent in the service of the UEE, were united by a singular vision: to forge an independent force that combined the best aspects of military strategy, scientific research, and industrial innovation.
Initially, these veterans came together as a small group to offer consulting services, using their military experience to help smaller settlements defend themselves against pirate groups, local warlords, and corporate exploitation. But as they worked, their vision began to evolve—seeing the potential for true independence, they realized they could build something far greater than just a mercenary force.
They named their collective Prometheus—after the mythic figure who defied the gods to bring fire to humanity—symbolizing their desire to bring knowledge and progress to those who were left behind by traditional corporations. Prometheus operates on a unique blend of military precision and entrepreneurial spirit. Their leaders believed that true power lay in the integration of science, industry, and combat capability. They sought to break free from the traditional constraints of military or corporate life by creating a self-sustaining, diverse organization. One that could influence the economy, protect the interests of the underdog, and still maintain a sharp edge in combat.
Manifesto
