= Welcome to Rome, Gladiator =
Welcome to the Mirror Universe, noble captain. This is Rome, we are the Terran Empire, and you are a Gladiator. You have something to prove. You may be here for any multitude of reasons: a former officer demoted for inactivity; a fallen prince, dishonored for poor conduct; a rogue, expelled by your last fleet; a rejected love slave, abandoned for something fresher. Hopefully, it is because you are our newest recruit.

Your past matters not, and your future turns only on your will in the present. For there is little difference between kings and slaves on the floor of the colosseum. If you are reading this, it is because you occupy the fleet rank of “Gladiator.” It is the most dramatic and spectacular rank within our fleet, because here anything can happen. Do you seek glory, captain? Do you desire freedom? Do you gaze at the stars and dream? Then prove yourself able to stand with the 1st Fleet, and walk as a prince among men.


= Fleet Mission =
For every tall ship, a star. For every monster, a champion. For every captain, a destiny. The path that we walk is not chosen for us: victory does not fall from heaven, knighthood is not something inherited, and nobility does not evolve from barbarism. Excellence is built only from the diligence of our hearts and the vigilance of our will. These are the duties of our intrepid captains:
Mission 1: To construct and maintain a Star Bases throughout the Milky Way
Mission 2: To forge pug newbies into battle groups of elite PvE captains.
Mission 3: To be the stage of the best mirror universe themed roleplay in the entire game.

We sing in silent elegance, we fight with our entire soul, and we build castles among the stars. Your destiny awaits. Go boldly.


= Fleet Rank and Promotion =
Star bases and spaceborne superstructures stand as our empire’s castles in the sky. They are monuments of the Sacred Earth’s art and science. They are the products of our Star Fleets’ excelling technology and order. They are the evidence of our kingdom’s dominion over the Milky Way. It is our fleet’s single greatest mission to build these castles in the sky. For we are Terrans, and Star Builders.

Captains who selflessly dedicate their service to this mighty responsibility are honored with fleet rank promotion based on their overall holding contributions. In silent, unsung elegance, they work tirelessly to supply materials and resources to our construction. “Star Builders” are nothing less than princes among our fleet, and are awarded all the glory and privilege thereto. Fleet Rank Promotions are based on the following:
1,000,000 = Legatus
100,000 = Centurion
10,000 = Decanus
1,000 = Legionnaire
100 = Militia
10 = Gladiator


= Fleet Officer Comments =
The galaxy is full of monsters. Barbarians and beasts alike raise sword against any who dare challenge fear with courage. Their army is as vast as sand, and their integrity is as worthless as wormwood. It is our fleet’s mission to stand against the hordes of darkness as knights, shining. For we are Terrans, and Star Fighters. Captains who demonstrate particular skills at starship combat are honored with special Officer Comments based on their ability to lead formations into battle and teach their skills to novice captains. For justice, for love, and for all that we dare dream, we meet the enemy in battle!


= Fleet Roleplay =
There is more than one of everything. For every world you discover, there turns another, darkly. From starless void, our enemies draw their plans to erase us from time and fell our Sacred Earth into darkness unknown. Let those who masquerade their cowardice in time-travel beware: “Your destiny ends upon the face of our shields and tips of our swords. You are safe nowhere, neither future nor past, to rob us of our family and empire. Your fascist counterfeit of our true Republic will shatter and burn before the Lights of the Star Fleet.”

Noble captains, look upon our peaceful Milky Way and remember the battles fought, in times now erased, to safeguard our blood. Remember the temporal wars brought upon us by the fascist usurpers, and the Dark Ages that might have been if Rome had fallen. Never again, never once. We are the descendants of an empire once fallen, and the vanguards of its rising anew. We carry within us the blood of Caesar, the law of Excalibur, and the integrity of Knights.

For all the victories left to win and for all the castles left to build, remember our greatest treasures are the songs we sing to each other. For we are the true Terran Empire, and you, my fellow captains, are the 1st Fleet.
