Alpha Quadrant

Beginning of the round
The Pandora Central Station (Vignette) was a mining station under the command of ShadeWater (NanoTrasen), built in the Alpana Solar System, where those who travelled to the frontier of civilization arrived. Under Charles Lavender's (Mr. Purple) management, the outpost was made to be his own branch by siphoning ShadeWater assets into his own bank account, with policies meant to change the populace's mindset against Shadewater (NanoTrasen) by spreading misinformation and fake information. Mr. Lavender (Mr. Purple) covertly split the exports of the station, one half went to the ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) and one going into his own bank account. In order to avoid suspicion, he did everything he could to maximize profit, disregarding basic rights crewmembers were entitled to.

As a consequence of the worsening workplace conditions given by ShadeWater (NanoTrasen), the crew thereby present rioted and created a spontaneous assembly over the future of the station. Some proposed a collectivization of the station and its parts, others a standard change in leadership and some for the founding of a zealous empire mandate. The rioting took its next phase when the crew thereby present, numbering fifteen (15) in total, headed to the bridge of the Pandora Central Station (Vignette). One of the crewmembers who led the revolution as its most vocal member, Julliana Blessings, was the head of the charge towards the bridge.

Negotiations ensued with Command as the crew outside. Command gave the rank of Cargo Director to Julliana Blessings in exchange of quelling the riot, which she agreed to. The riot was dispersed with the help of Security presence and the crew felt betrayed by the now Cargo Director.

(((Mr. Lavender (Mr. Purple) and his puppets.)))

Once the policies began to show the desired effects of rebellion within the masses, Mr. Lavender (Mr. Purple) left ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) Command to organize the rebelion into a syndicate, giving the control of the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) to Samantha Atwell, who had never been part of ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) prior to her recruitment by Mr. Lavender (Mr. Purple). Atwell attempts to follow the example of Mr.Purple regarding how to lead the station, but slowly starts to differ on the approach, which involved working with the new rising factions and trying to maintain order on the station. Atwell would remain in control of the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) until the formation of the Frontier Defence Coalition which would later forcefully uproot her from her seat in Command on the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) and within the Frontier Defence Coalition as well.

Conflict with ShadeWater (NanoTrasen)
ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) eventually found out about Pandora Central Station (Vignette)'s rogue activity and decides to send a security detatchment to arrest Mr. Lavender (Mr. Purple). The station appeared to respect Atwell's command and expected her and the crew thereby present to follow orders and assist in the arrest, while also supporting the destruction of the Frontier Defence Coalition. At first, Samantha Atwell agreed with the demands sent but later on refused, leading Atwell and the crew to join the Frontier Defence Coalition.

During the ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) and Frontier Defence Coalition war, the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) became the most important position of defense, as ShadeWater's (NanoTrasen) ability to mobilize shock troops to the region was very limited. This lies in regards to the on-station teleport beacons, which were not in control of ShadeWater, but the Frontier Defence Coalition. During the situation, Atwell was quietly disposed of by the Frontier Defence Coalition by declaring the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) its capital, with ultimate authority going to its Chairman, Ray Dubi of Cythos. Thus, the coup was successful. Corbette, a member of Pandora Central Station (Vignette) Command, was part of the coup and took Atwell's place in the Council, furthering Mr. Lavender's (Mr. Purple) agenda.

ShadeWater (NanoTrasen)-Frontier Defence Coalition Conflict
ShadeWater's (NanoTrasen) major attack on the Pandora Central Station (Vignette) started with the arrival of a ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) Battle Cruiser, a scouting ship. The ship was boarded by Frontier Defence Coalition resistance fighters led by admiral Griggs of Cythos. This resulted in the Frontier Defence Coalition victorious with the capture of the NT Battle Cruiser, which was used by the entire crew to flee in fear of another assault by a fully-armed ShadeWater (NanoTrasen) Fleet. The fleet allegedly had the ability to engage in orbital bombardment towards all stations in a sector, which would leave the Frontier Defence Coalition lacking in firepower and doomed.
