The Space Marines, formally known as The Ikaanian Marine Corps (IMC), is an elite army controlled directly by the Chancellor of Ikaanos.

Main objectives

Organization

Space Captains

The field commanders of the Space Marines. They are responsible for leading and directing Space Marines in active war zones.

Space Marines

The normal Space Marines, are well-trained, well-disciplined, and well-equipped. They serve as guards protecting key areas, and key figures and also as elite soldiers fighting the Republic for in skirmishes or full-blown wars.

There are currently around 900 space marines on active duty.

The Black Guard

The Black Guards are genetically engineered space marines who do covert missions, protect high-value assets, and perform other advanced tasks that normal space marines are either physically unfit or mentally unqualified to handle.

"The Black Guards" is a vernacular call name, like Space Marines; stemming from their duraplate armor turned black from an enhancing laser-flaring method. They are also sometimes called "Hulk" by the normal citizens of Ikaanos due to some of them wearing modified duraplate armor or H.U.L.C armor that are heavier than their normal counterparts.

There are currently around 200 black guards on active duty.

Armarments

Weapons

  • Automatic Rifle
  • Coilgun
  • Plasma Rifle

Armor

  • Combat Armor
  • Duraplate Armor
  • H.U.L.C Armor

Allies

The Space Marines sometimes ally themselves with other forces to achieve a greater chance of success in their missions. However, they are very selective about this and only work with those who are on-par with them

The Red Guard

The Red Guard is not technically a part of the IMC, even if the two parties sometimes perform joint missions. The Mastersphere even supplies the Red Guards with weapons and armors.

The Red Guard is in reality a standalone entity under The Church of The Two Moons - comprised of seasoned black guards and other veteran space marines. Each Red Guard must pass a physical test that's extremely demanding, known to cause permanent injuries among those who fail. The pay makes it worthwhile however, as a red guard can expect at least $1,500 per day in wages.

It's estimated that the Church holds around one hundred red guards on active service. Their main duties are to guard the great cathedrals of Emerald City and escort missionaries as they travel the dangerous roads outside Ikaanos.
