Emerald Brigade

The Emerald Brigade is a terrorist organisation based on Ganatlai. They hold to the ideology of Viechtyren supremacy and are vehemently racist towards other races, especially humans.

History
The EB was founded shortly before the Ganatlai War in response to Chinese mining operations around the equatorial rainforest of the planet. It began as a peaceful environmental movement called Viechtyren Against Mining (VAM), but after the previous leader, Taran Hu, was killed by Chinese troops during the war, the much more racist and militant Verlus Tavah took over as leader and morphed it into the more violent organisation it is famous as. Tavah renamed the organisation to the Emerald Brigade, taking inspiration from the teryo-supremacist Sapphire Pack on Earth, seeing Viechtyren and teryo as kindred spirits. He chose Emeralds as they are green and green camouflages well on the jungle planet of Ganatlai. The colour green has become inextricably linked to Emeraldism on Viechtyr, much like how red is associated with communism.

Tavah and several of his lieutenants were killed in an EU raid on their compound in 2168, but their message has lingered in the minds of many Viechtyren.

Emeraldism
Tavah summed up his message in four tenets, known as the Emerald Tract.

1. Viechtyren are the only race that can take care of planets. 2. Viechtyren have a special kinship with World Spirits, we are their children. 3. Humans are inherently destructive creatures and should be eradicated to protect World Spirits. 4. All methods should be used to strike fear in humans; even homocarnism (aka eating humans)
