What's the point of living in a galaxy which's a big fat pile of crap filled with bandits, criminals, thugs, serial killers and everything in between, always afraid your empire is going to be suddenly attacked by complete strangers with the sole objective of taking your hard work from you? This is why the Special Forces exist. It exists to destroy whoever tries and does this. And it is absolutely glorious!

- Councillor Xeron of the Polar Crystal Alliance

The Niaka Special Forces, also known by names such as New Niaka Order is the current sole government of the Niaka, a species of small, physically frail creatures who command tremendous battlesuits for both manual labour and combat. Their main objective in existence is to serve as a galactic police force, patrolling their home galaxy of Borealis in order to ensure the protection of the innocent and the complete, forceful destruction of all that is crime, including space pirates and other hostile empires who may threaten their allies.

While very young, the Special Forces' influence has already expanded through the whole galaxy, and they are now seen as the official law enforcers of the Polar Crystal Alliance. Possessing little patience for criminals and being more than willing to shoot before asking, the Niaka have become one of the galaxy's most notable inhabitants, and while their technology is not as impressive as that of his greater allies, their famed battlesuits are nonetheless an imposing and dreaded sight on the galaxy's underworld. The Niaka Special Forces has no interest in redemption, for in their point of view, you may only redeem yourself in death.

History[]

Early History[]

The Niaka Special Forces was founded on the Earth year 2,766, when Chief Xerkea organized a revolution inside the Niaka Order's government. Xerkea's loyalists wanted to change the Niaka's ideals and become a lawful empire, causing the Order to be divided into two empires: the old government and new one, known as the Niaka Special Forces. The Niaka pirates were exiled off Special Forces territory and Xerkea took over the Niaka homeworld of Ikkiz. Because of this event, the Order adopted the new name of "Old Order" and has since sought the destruction of the traitors who forbid them of their original home.

After their civil war, the Niaka made efforts to make up with the empires they attacked in the past by granting them free services such as protection, giving the Special Forces a good reputation in the galaxy which would serve to make them a notable player in international affairs. This got the attention from major empires such as the Zoles Imperium, who admired their goals and encouraged them, leading them to be more widely accepted as the galaxy's police force.

Second Borealis Galactic War[]

The Niaka Special Forces was one of the major players of the Second Borealis Galactic War, aligning themselves to the Zoles Imperium early in the conflict after they called for aid during the invasion of the Xi'Arazulha. This would lead to them becoming involved in the entire war alongside the Unified Nation of Ottzello, and while they at first showed great skepticism towards the Ottelloans, years of fighting common threats like the Borealis Consortium Network, the Devourer's Chosen and the Borealis Grox Empire led them to gain a genuine respect for the extragalactic aliens.

Among the Special Forces' most notable feats in the war include being among the greatest oppositors to the rise of the War Economy, the defeat of the Seagon Empire when they attempted to siege Ikkiz with a superweapon, and being one of the founders of the modern Polar Crystal Alliance. Chief Minor Xeron would be their people's main representative through the conflict, with his successes leading him to ascend to be his people's first Councillor in the reborn Alliance. The Special Forces were also fundamental in the collapse of the Borealis Consortium Network, as their agents - disguised as pirates of the Old Niaka Order - instigated the flames of civil war in the worlds of the Wranploer.

With the war's conclusion, most of the civilized galaxy had acknowledged the Special Forces' role as Borealis' police, leading to their ascension into one of its most important nations.

Ice Age[]

Once the Ice Age begun, the Special Forces began employing surrendered Levarcor individuals into their ranks, using them as guards and soldiers. The Niaka eventually grew a liking on the Levarcor, consolidating their partnership. Their influence grew across the galaxy, becoming more and more advanced and feared across the ranks of space pirates. The Special Forces was later victim of Operation New Order, an attack orchestrated by Captain Lord Xoraika and Zoltik Relkhul. The Special Forces, with the help of the Zoles Imperium, defeated Xoraika and then surrendered the Old Niaka Order, absorbing it into their own empire. The Niaka race became united under the Special Forces, which then began rebuilding their damaged homeworld and developing former Old Order worlds into actual colonies with good living conditions.

Characteristics[]

Species[]

Government[]

The Niaka Special Forces is a stratocracy, a government where the military is the supreme ruler of the people. By laws, the stratocract in charge of the empire, deemed the Chief Major, is to be the single most skilled Niaka in the Forces' ranks. Above the Chief Major are the figures known as Chief Minors, the empire's equivalent of governors and generals who have control over entire sectors of space and answer directly to the Chief Major. Below the Chief Minors are the figures known merely as Chiefs, who govern individual planets as well as administer the colonies in it. The current Chief Major of the Niaka Special Forces is:

Society[]

As a stratocracy based around the complete eradication of all crime, the Niaka Special Forces' society is extremely controlled, with the military always in constant patrol for possible criminal activity within their own territory in order to eliminate it as fast as possible. Conscription is a constant part of the Niaka's lives, meaning individual Niaka can be drafted into the space police at any moment and without warning, with rejection without good reason leading to the individual being deemed a traitor and executed. This is less of a problem with the empire's Levarcor population due to their nature as bioengineered for war, meaning they are always ready to enter the police.

Despite this, the government is not considered oppressive by the Niaka themselves, who see it as merely trying to protect them and the galaxy. The Special Forces makes great efforts to grant their citizens the best life quality possible, and thanks to this, their cities tend to be among the most peaceful and beautiful of the Polar Crystal Alliance, with visitors always having the tranquility to keep in mind they are in crime-free zones. Aliens are welcome to join the Special Forces at all times, but they are not eligible to obtain ranks higher than Chiefs, which are considered exclusive to the Niaka.

Technology[]

The technology of the Niaka Special Forces is, for the most part, based upon the technology of the Old Niaka Order and therefore is rather obsolete when compared to the rest of the galaxy due to the latter's lack of scientists and disinterest in developing themselves. However, thanks to technology trades between the Special Forces and empires such as the Zoles Imperium and the Indoctrinate Collective, the Niaka have managed to upgrade themselves to the point their military is superior to most of the Polar Crystal Alliance's members.

Most of the Niaka's technological research goes into their military, though they are also adepts at medicine, with cybernetic enhancements being popular in the empire in order to make the Niaka stronger and longer-lived. The Niaka's spaceships are all built for combat and tend to be very resilient, possessing advanced shields and also being made in large numbers so that they may deliver strikes at their enemies in large numbers. Regarding their battlesuits, each is comparable to a tank in power and have enough strength to fight creatures such as armed Murgur and Loron head-on and win, being specifically built for such match-ups. They use powerful cannons and railguns for ranged combat, and all of these factors make them one of the Polar Crystal Alliance's most feared ground forces.

Religion[]

The Niaka Special Forces is an atheist empire with traces of antitheism, believing religion is a distraction from their objective and that no worshipping of deities will help them create an order Borealis any faster. However, some Niaka, especially the ones native of the Old Order, have an almost shamanic view of their homeworld of Ikkiz, believing it is sacred to some extent and that it should never be harmed by weapons. The Special Forces tends to overlook this belief in specific as it inadvertently makes the capital world a safer place to live in.

Individuals[]

Chief Major Xerkea
MiniXerkea

I'll bring peace by painting the battlefield red!

  • Name - Xerkea
  • Position - Chief Major
  • Status - Deceased

Xerkea was the founder and first Chief Major of the Niaka Special Forces. A revolutionary leader who despised the Niaka Order's society, she created the Special Forces in an attempt to redeem the Niaka race. An attempt that has, so far, been successful. Xerkea was arrogant and aggressive, believing the Special Forces are the ultimate shield against crime in the galaxy. She had, however, good intentions, only wanting Borealis to be a safe place to live one day. While good intentioned, her methods were questionable to say the least.

Councillor Xeron
MiniXeron

I'm not merely right, I know I'm right. Don't argue with me!

  • Name - Xeron
  • Position - Polar Crystal Councillor
  • Status - Alive

Xeron is the Special Forces' representative in the Polar Crystal Alliance and their first Councillor. Formerly a Chief Minor under Xerkea, he was chosen to represent his people as a reward for his feats during the Second Borealis Galactic War. Known to be the most ill-tempered in the Council, Xeron's bloodthirsty and passionate demeanor helps balance out his more peaceful Councillors, ensuring they remain unbiased in more delicate matters.

Quotes[]

A galactic police was not something required in my time, for crime had since become irrelevant. However, their efforts are acceptable, and I encourage them in their mission.

- Arkarixus

A most irritating pest, which somehow grew a brain big enough to make suits to fight with. These things are as bad as stepping on a nail: you can barely see it and it bothers a lot.

- General Volim

oh ma dayz SCREW DA NIAKA. if deres one fing dat makes me angry ITS A BUNCH OF NIAKA TOYMEN SHOWIN UP ALL LIKE "YOYO YOR DED NAO" RITE IN DA MIDDEL OF A RAID. FFS GET A LIFE STOP BOTHERIN US

- Gol'thabex

There are those knights that fight for their valor, then there are those fierce templars that fight for the people's justice; the Niaka, adepts of the arts of warfare and termination, are the side of the coin that do away with the niceties should it mean further prosperity. Ah, in the Niaka, I have come to see Zazane.

- Tyraz

Their goals are welcome to me. Diplomacy can sometimes only go so far. A big gun is always a useful deterrent to preventing crime.

- Captain Aeralon Temer, New Cyrannian Republic

I never was fond of people trying to act like policemen and shove their views on others...until I met the Niaka. Their cause is definitely admirable. When we first came to this galaxy, we thought their ultimate desired goal - a peaceful, lawful Borealis - was an impossible one, but this changed rapidly.

- Kralgon Emperor

dey needs mekk suits ta do wat uno does. lame. still safe homies tho

- Zr'Ahgloth

I despise those bugs. They make business...troublesome, and their stubbornness makes them far too hard to manipulate.

- Falrik Zaarkhun
