The Compendium

Maintained in partnership with the Syndicate Archives and Records Authority, the Compendium stands as the officially sanctioned repository of knowledge, operational doctrine, and institutional memory for Arque Interstellar. This evolving archive is designed not only to orient new operatives to the structure and philosophy of our organization, but also to continually inform and support seasoned personnel. It serves as a living testament to our enduring legacy, core principles, and the disciplined framework that sustains our command hierarchy.

Every entry within the Compendium is carefully curated, meticulously verified, and periodically revised in accordance with regulatory directives. This ensures that all members have consistent access to reliable, mission-aligned information at every stage of their service. Familiarity with the contents of this archive is not optional. It is a fundamental requirement for anyone who intends to operate with precision, uphold organizational discipline, and embody the intent of our unified command vision.

The Doctrine
This core section establishes the ideological foundation of Arque Interstellar. It articulates our overarching mission, the philosophical beliefs that guide our operations, and our long-term strategic objectives. The Doctrine is more than an introduction, it is the distilled essence of our purpose, our unifying vision, and the principles that bind every operative, regardless of assignment or rank. All personnel are expected to engage with and internalize this content before participating in major operational deployments.

The Codex
Functioning as our legal and procedural cornerstone, the Codex encompasses the full spectrum of operational mandates, ethical regulations, and conduct standards required for service. It outlines everything from formal command chain procedures to engagement protocols in the field. This section clearly defines permissible actions, identifies behaviors subject to disciplinary review, and demarcates the boundaries of operational discretion. Compliance is not negotiable. Violations may lead to investigation, administrative action, or expulsion.

The Ascension
Progression within Arque Interstellar follows a structured, merit-based path governed by performance, service, and alignment with organizational values. The Ascension details the full rank hierarchy, from Initiate to High Command, providing insight into the criteria for advancement and the responsibilities associated with each tier. This section also includes information on access levels, authority scopes, ceremonial honors, and recognition standards for exceptional conduct. Advancement is a reflection of both competence and commitment.
