Blackshore

Aggressive on the best of days, The Black Shore are confirmed enemies of the Federation. Black Shore has a particular affinity for anomaly based research and development. Their soldiers are high tier and well trained, many of their units seem to be augmented beyond physical extent to the point of becoming walking anomalies themselves. They are incredibly secretive and difficult to track, let alone locate. Founded on an unknown date, lead by an unknown leader referred to only as "Majester", Black Shore has been confirmed to be at least sixty years old as an organization, maybe longer. It is unclear who all, or how new leaders are chosen. From what intel determines, the Majester is a primary Imperial leader and all activities must be approved by them or their primary governing bodies which can operate independently like a kind of cabinet. Though military and defense are chief among the attention of the leading focus, there are some villages and towns, and on some occasion, cities who serve the efforts of Black Shore's flag. 

Appearances

Operatives and units primarily banner black with red detailing. Most wear helmets or masks to obstruct their faces, or to hide their augment deformations. Black Shore seem to have the most regimented units of all factions, universally matching, often with the same weapon loadouts and ammunition types. From missions encountering them so far, they usually only deploy one type of unit in show of numbers. Likely to conceal their ranks on the field, the insignias and stripes of rank are very difficult to find on the uniform. From what post action reports have revealed thus far, it is likely they use their IFF and HUD primarily to identify by rank.

Associations

 Carver is one of the primary operatives seen associating with, or in a command position with Black Shore operatives. It is entirely unclear, however what rank or position he actually holds.
