The original corporation is a joint operation employed by the empire to research the most advanced technology in all areas from biology to weaponry and has long provided the federation with its most advanced tools of warfare and state crafting. It’s success is largely attributed to its willingness to allow any scientist, regardless of background, to achieve high status through merit alone. Yet one single director of the company, one Nakharan Mkne, stood out among his peers and took the already radical companies ideology and brought it to the extreme. Known as a maverick even among his peers the Mar’qua born Nakharan jumped at the idea of joining his own independent colony and, in a true fashion to his radical ways, opted to join the colony through a long range teleportation device his personal research divisions were working on. On the day of the colonies arrival Nakharan made a grand appearance in the skies of Amethyn as his ships loaded with valuable research and technology appeared in the sky… and exploded. Few ships survived the experimental bluespace teleportation at a long range, sending nearly all of them crashing into the planet and spreading their valuable materials and technology across the surface. Crucially, Nakharan had the foresight to ensure his researchers survival with specially designed and reinforced pods which ensured most of his underlings and himself survived the resulting crash to the planets surface. The soteria institute took the failure in stride and quickly gathered what supplies they could easily salvage and built an advanced research and medical bay. The faction is now headed by Nakharan who oversees both the medical and research divisions of the colony and delegates the day to day work to his chief subordinates, the biolab and research overseers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td class=&quot;diff-marker&quot; data-marker=&quot;+&quot;&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style=&quot;color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;The soteria institute is considered &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;radical &lt;/ins&gt;by many &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;within &lt;/ins&gt;the scientific world of the Sol Federation and &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;their &lt;/ins&gt;Mar’qua allies for several reasons.
