IRENIC

The Irenic are a pacifistic Faction that prefers to keep to themselves.

They are probably one of if not the smallest of the factions in the galaxy, but their true numbers are impossible to estimate due to their isolation nature. They are artists and highly skilled craftsmen, which is reflected in the very elegant ships, which can sometimes favor form over function. They maintain a high standard of morality, and see conflict as beneath them and will try to avoid it at all cost, but do maintain a small fleet of specialized shield ships in order to protect themselves and pacify their aggressors, without having fire back.
