Brethren of the Deep
The Brethren of the Deep, also known as "The White Cross", is an influential maritime faction known for its revolutionary ideology, spiritual devotion, and mastery over the oceanic domain. They operate primarily within Iceberg Cities, commanding a population of over 70 billion Imperamen. Their existence is rooted in the principles of conquest, order, and divine purpose, believing themselves to be the rightful stewards of the seas and the protectors of humanity's future.
Their culture is a fusion of medieval chivalry and hard-hat deep-sea diving, drawing inspiration from historical warrior societies and naval brotherhoods. Members of the Brethren are known for their discipline, unwavering faith, and unmatched skill in underwater warfare and survival.
