== History ==

=== A Rift in the Principate ===

“You are putting us at great risk by taking such a lax approach. Justice must be delivered. - Kamlin

The mass prison breakout and subsequent formation of the [[Tenexir Revenants]] posed a significant threat to the safety and stability of the [[Severian Principate]], and marked the beginning of a time of unrest. Division began to sow between the leaders at the very top. Triumvir of Oaths [[Vairya Muktiba]] saw potential to co-exist with the ex-prisoners, and began to prepare a bid to see the Imperial Harmony Party, a political group campaigning for peace, to be brought before the senate.

The other Triumvirs, Triumvir of Steel [[Kamlin Xarel]] and Triumvir of Oaths [[Adlez Freewoman]], saw things differently. Backed by many industry and military-aligned politicians, Xarel and Freewoman sought an eradication campaign against the criminals, seeing themselves on the side of justice. This group of politicians became known as the Restoration Bloc.

=== The Restoration Troopers ===

our new Restoration
Troopers will be a true force to be reckoned with,” - Freewoman

As the divide between Xarel and Freewoman from Muktiba grew stronger, they began to operate in secret from each other. Seeing potential military application on mysterious crystal fragments their miners had been finding, they had their scientists learn how to break them apart. The experiments took weeks and millions of credits.

The experiments continued, supervised by Adlez. She used the broken crystal fragments to imbue troops with enhanced speed and power, at the cost of mutilating their bodies into something that barely resembled their former selves. The result was so gruesome that even Xarel jumped back several feet in shock after seeing one.

===Escalation===

The divide between the Triumvirs continued to grow as the Tenexir Revenants attacked the Hutt world of [[Dandoran]], marking the beginning of the [[Escalation]] crisis. Xarel was outraged by Muktiba's capturing of a dozen Revenants instead of killing them. She contacted Adlez and they agreed to deploy the Restoration Troopers.

The Revenants had taken Garganta Galleria Casino Hotel in [[Tipool City]] when the Restoration Troopers arrived. It only took one to eliminate the Revenant squad with brutal efficiency. The situation very quickly escalated as a mysterious figure known only as [[The Seer]] arrived in the city, armed with her own crystal-infused warriors.

The Triumvirate met as a three, where Muktiba accused the others of slaughter. They saw reports of one of the Seer's crystal ascendants tearing through their own troops. Before they could relay any new orders to deal with this new enemy, Muktiba pulled a blaster pistol on them.

==Foreign Relations==

===Allies===

====The Dark Jedi Brotherhood====

While some members of the [[Dark Jedi Brotherhood]] have sided with other factions, overall the Severian Principate remains moderately allied with the Brotherhood, and this alliance applies to the Restoration Bloc.

===Enemies===

====The Tenexir Revenants====

The faction the Restoration Bloc was formed to combat, waging war against the Revenants is their primary purpose, and they will accept nothing else than elimination of the criminals.

====The Collective====

While [[The Collective]] were less active by the time of the formation of the Restoration Bloc, they have previously battled against the Severian Principate in the [[Lyra-3K-a system]] and would be seen as enemies if they were ever sighted again.

====The Harmonists====

The Harmonist party are the primary political opposition of the Restoration Bloc, and seek to solve the Revenants crisis through diametrically opposed methods.

====The Seer====

While little is known about The Seer, she and her crystal ascendants have waged war against the Restoration troopers.

===Mercenaries===

The Restoration Bloc makes frequent use of mercenary soldiers in its military, including some elder members of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. At the time of the Escalation conflict, elders of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood aligned with the Restoration Bloc were

*Master [[Selika Roh di Plagia]], Consul of [[Clan Plagueis]]

*Adept Dracaryis, former [[Fist]] of the brotherhood.

*Adept [[Kamjin "Maverick" Lap'lamiz]], [[Clan Scholae Palatinae]]

*General [[Zentru'la]], commander of the [[Vornskr Battalion]]
