Android Abolitionist Front
Synthetic freedom fighters
Androids have been recognized as free citizens of the Pact Worlds for more than a century, yet that doesn’t
mean their exploitation is entirely over. While the Stewards keep a careful eye out for illegal android foundries, their reach extends only so far. A black-market trade in android slaves still exists on black-ops corporate research stations, deep-space raider @starships, and newly discovered worlds with unscrupulous colonists, where androids are forced by threats or other duress to follow orders.
That’s where the Android Abolitionist Front comes in. With agents ranging from informants to elite infiltration teams, the AAF is dedicated to fighting android slavery wherever it’s found.
Originally formed solely of androids, the AAF has since expanded its membership to members of other @races, in part because missions to disrupt android trafficking often free other oppressed @humanoids as well.
Though the AAF’s careful cell structure means members rarely know the identities of more than a few others, many believe that the group’s council of leadership, Ex Novo, operates from a secret asteroid base in the Diaspora - a rock absent from any chart and riddled with cavernous habitats and high-end stealth gear.
Fully inducted agents often identify themselves via @magical encryption tattoos that remain invisible until activated with a code word, then authenticate others against an anonymous agent database.
The organisation’s secretive nature makes it difficult to present a public face, yet occasional pirate broadcasts take credit for exploits or present the group’s manifesto.
Many believe the AAF has a quiet working relationship with the Stewards, and perhaps even a member seated on the Pact Council itself.
Complicating the AAF’s relationship with mainstream society is the fact that, aside from a shared goal of preventing android slavery, its members have no particular creed. Some seek to accomplish their goals without violence, while others don’t care who dies; some care only about true slavery, whereas others seek to eradicate all prejudice against created peoples .
