The Dominion is a militaristic human organization[1] bent on the subjugation of those outside their control.[2] They are based in a kingdom located to the north of Fort Tarsis,[3] and are lead by a mysterious individual known as The Monitor.[4]
Overview
The Dominion and Freelancers in conflict
The Dominion is an ancient enemy of the Freelancers, whom they are philisophically opposed to.[5] They have always been a threat to Fort Tarsis,[4] and in the present day, they remain in conflict with the Freelancers.[6] Like the Freelancers, the Dominion has access to Javelins.[2] Notably, they designed the Storm Javelin, though it later fell into the hands of the Freelancers.[7]
The Dominion is attempting to use the Anthem of Creation as a weapon[6] in order to establish their rule[5] over the world.[8] To achieve this they seek to retrieve Shaper relics.[9] The Freelancers moved to stop them, as the Dominion's actions were putting everyone at risk.[3]
Trivia
- In comparison to real-world politics, the Dominion has been called "almost fascist."[1]
