HISTORY - IMPERIAL VAMPIRE SECURITY TEAMS (VSB)

THE SECOND GALACTIC WAR (352 BC - 14 AD)

Seeking to restore the Velorum Empire's former colonies in the Beta Quadrant of the Orion Arm, Velorum Emperor Ta'Vel orders the invasion of the Beta Quadrant by the Velorum Alliance. On Earthdate 113, at 18:00 hours, Velorum and Imperial Vampire Forces crossed the border into Earth Space attacking Fleet Battle Station 65 on the Theseus line - a series of Orion Alliance Space Stations defending the Earth Space border. Beginning the Second Galactic War, a series of regional interstellar wars, between the Velorum Alliance and the Orion Alliance lasting 34 years. The Front-Line of the War would span across 3,000 light-years, with total casualties and loses of over 2 billion dead.

Date:

352 BC - 14 AD

Result:

Orion Alliance victory

The Blockade of Earth

During the Battle of earth, forces loyal to the Imperial Vampire Houses threaten a Global nuclear war against any Orion Alliance ground invasion forces. The Alliance chose instead to spare the people of Earth by imposing a total space blockade of the planet.

Imperial VSB Teams

To maintain lines of communications with Imperial Vampire forces on Earth, the Imperial Vampire Security Bureau (the VSB) was tasked with running the Earth blockade. Using blockage runners known as Nightrunners - cloaked infiltrator patrol starships, with both slipspace and FTL drives, Imperial VSB teams ran the blockade to deliver secret military dispatches and smuggling intelligence operatives to and from earth.

The Battle of Tartarus (14 AD)

After 34 years of war, the Velorum Empire was finally defeated by the Orion Empire in the Second Battle of Orion's Belt. Imperial Vampire Forces, are driven from Earth Space - all sectors within a 300 light-year radius of Earth. First Vampire Faction, are driven from Earth Space back to their homeworld Tartarus. The final battle of the Second Galactic War, the Battle of Tartarus (14 AD), ended with the destruction of all major cities on Tartarus and the deaths of over 50 million. Because of the great loss of life on both sides in the battle, Tartarus is known as "Ghost" and the region is known as "Ghost Space".

On Earthdate 321, at 01:00 hours, the Velorum Alliance and the Orion Alliance sign the EarthZone Accords the treaty ending the Second Galactic War. The Treaty, declared Earth as a protected planet - no interference the technological development of the planet. It created the EarthZone, a protected zone of space - 300 light-year radius surrounding Earth, to be reserved for future Human colonization. Ghost Space was declared restricted space - no colonization allowed, the planet Tartarus also known as Ghost to be a Forbidden Planet - no landing or contact permitted. To protect EarthZone, it created the Earth Space Organization (ESO) and Earth Space Command (ESC).

AFTERMATH OF SECOND GALACTIC WAR (14 - 20 AD)

EarthZone

Earth Moonbase: Lunar City and the Epsilon Eridani Station and Shipyards are place under the command of Earth Space Organization (ESO).

Under the terms of the EarthZone Accords: the Earth Space Organization (ESO) and Earth Space Command (ESC) assumes responsibility for the defense of Earth and EarthZone. The ESC begins conducting military operations and security patrols of the EarthZone and Ghost Space. All heavy weapons are removed from Earth; direct interstellar trade with Earth is banned; travel to Earth is restricted and requires a visa from the ESO;

The EarthZone and Ghost Space now serve as a defacto buffer zone separating the Dhampir and Atlantean Empires from the Imperial Vampire Empire and Velorum Empire. Earth Space Command (ESC) begins the expansion of the Theseus line - a series of former Orion Alliance Space Stations on the old Earth Space border, now under command of the ESO.

Earth

Meanwhile, on Earth, under the terms of the EarthZone Accords: Vampires, Mutants, and Aliens who remained on Earth and in EarthZone, were now subject to new criminal laws known as the Earth Sanctions. The EarthZone Security Bureau (ESB), an Interstellar Police Force was established by the ESO to enforce these laws. Violations of the Earth Sanctions is punishable by deportation, imprisonment, or death sanction.

Vampires living on Earth are allowed to keep their underground and undersea megacities. Vampires, Mutants, and Aliens living on Earth are allowed to conduct trade and commerce on Earth within the limits human laws established by kingdom and empires on Earth. Sharing of advanced weapons and technology is prohibited and punishable by death sanction.

Imperial Vampire Empire

The Imperial Vampire Empire named Lady Zora, daughter of General Zor, as the new Regent of Imperial Vampires living on Earth.

IMPERIAL VAMPIRE HOUSES AND THE EARTH SANCTIONS (21 - 100 AD)

With the trade effectively ended between Imperial Vampire Houses on Earth and the Imperial Vampire Empire prices for Earth goods soar creating a back market for now forbidden Earth goods: human slaves, pure Earth blood, wine, rare jewels, gold and diamonds. It is legal for Vampires to purchase these goods on Earth, but illegal to export them offworld under the Earth Sanctions. The Imperial Vampire on Vampiria hire smugglers using cloaked ships, to avoid the EarthZone patrols to smuggle goods from Earth back to Vampiria.

To deal with the threat, Earth Special Operations Command, creates Red Team, a Black Sentinel special operations team tasks with foreign intelligence operations - high threat military and intelligence operations, both on Earth and offworld: in EarthZone, and in hostile space regions and governments.

THE VAMPIRE SYNDICATE (101 AD)

Vampiria

After the heads of several Imperial Vampire Houses on Earth, are executed for violating the Earth Sanctions by the ESO.

The Imperial Vampire Security Bureau (VSB) creates the Vampire Syndicate - a secret Interstellar crime organization, to smuggle operatives and tech (technology) to Earth and goods back to Vampiria.

EARTH INTELLIGENCE / SECTION-19: BLACK CELL (103 AD)

Earth Moonbase: Lunar City

Earth Intelligence - Section 19, creates a special deep cover Dhampir unit - Codename Black Cell, to infiltrate Imperial VSB and Vampire Syndicate operations on Vampiria and Earth.
