Forum:The Crimson Circle

"In the crimson shadow, even Light will perish."

- Crimson Circle Motto

The Crimson Circle is a secretive order of Fallen assassins, mercenaries and Splicers chosen for their desirable strengths and ambitions. Composed of elite Fallen (usually ex-mercenaries, assassins, Barons or even Archons) from the many Fallen Houses in the Solar System, they are said to be the best of the best and are often employed without hesitation. They are indicated by their dark grey and red armor and the abundance of alien tech baked into them.

Structure
The order is organized more like a crime syndicate with a founder directing every move for the house much like a Kell would. However, the boss is the end-all sovereign of the Circle, maintaining full control over every aspect of power in the order that would have been separated in a traditional Fallen house. Second to the founder is their co-founder, who also possesses full control over the Circle save for their greater associate. Despite the full power the founder and co-founder have over the Circle, they rarely exercise their power, usually reserved for the occasional supply and weapons raid and retaliation order or even a desirable contract, allowing the houses patrons a greater sense of independence and freedom to do whatever they please, as long as it benefits the Circle in the long run.

As is required for any Fallen house, the Circle also has an impressive line of Servitors stemming from the Havopaks line. However, due to the order's liberties from the abandonment of traditional Fallen belief, the Circle, instead, remade most of the Servitor line to be ruthless war machines rather than the source of sustenance their peers initially engineered them to be. The most aggressive Servitors are allowed to pilot the Splicer's crowning achievements, a Strider assault walker.

The most elite and loyal members of the Circle are appointed to the Council, an exclusive kill squad who answers only to the founder and obey every order their master wills, whether that is assassinating rival Fallen leadership or kidnapping an alien asset, while also given minimal governing and military power. When not following the will of their master, they can often be seen scouting for and training candidates in the Hunt, sharpening their skills or improving their weaponry or, like any other mercenary, working on a contract they were either assigned or chose themselves.

The most glaring trait about the Circle is their undeniable skill and affinity for weapons and technology. Due to the works of the most prestigious Splicer engineers and scientists, most of the Circle's ranks are armed with the most advanced Fallen weaponry and assault automatons empowered by repurposed Human and Cabal tech, as well as the minimal presence of SIVA. As is the way of the Circle, the more useful and powerful weapons and armor are awarded to the most devoted and higher ranking members of the order.
