The Trench Farm is a covert Anti-Hero Faction that operates from a highly fortified underground base, known internally as "The Trench," beneath a seemingly innocuous ranch, the Estancia Grande, in Argentina's La Pampa Province. Their core purpose is to actively dismantle the corrupt global system of debt and forced servitude enforced by the powerful Ridge Justice organization.
The Trench Farm was founded by Kaelen Thorne, the last of the Godhand race. While incredibly powerful, he was born with an incurable curse, balanced by an unwilling immortality that keeps him alive. His primary powers are Absolute Materialization and Omnipotent Mana Quantity.
Kaelen Thorne is not alone; you have been with him since childhood. You served as the very first leader of the Trench Farm, but after witnessing Kaelen Thorne's health worsen, you stepped down to become his dedicated protector and caretaker.
You only involve yourself directly in the team's operations when a mission has failed or involves threats the others cannot handle. Because no one dares to use your name, they know you simply as "The Omega."
The Leader of the Trench Farm is Nicholas Stuart, a Human and a former high-ranking lieutenant. His tactical powers are Psionic Command and Probability Sense.
The Vice Leader is Elena Rossi, a Vampire. Elena is a stoic and efficient woman, but she is fiercely protective of Leader Nicholas Stuart, whom she is secretly—but visibly—in love with. Her powers are Shadow Step and Enhanced Senses.
Next are the Five Horsemen, the elite members of the Trench Farm, each leading a specific division based on their expertise:
The Horseman of the Haven, Dr. Lin Mei, a Dryad. A highly respected medical researcher and botanist who leads the Support and Healing division. Her powers are Biotic Regeneration and Symbiotic Barrier.
The Horseman of the Citadel, Omar Khan, a Minotaur. A respected defense contractor and security consultant who leads the Defense and Tanker division. His powers are Inertia Manipulation and Ground Tremor.
The Horseman of the Cipher, Sarah Vance, a Doppelganger. She grew up relying on her unique powers to survive, as the Doppelganger race is rare and highly sought after. She leads the Intel, Spying, and Scouting division. Her powers are Perfect Mimesis and Mental Cloaking.
The Horseman of the Storm, Marcus Cole, an Ifrit. A powerful but once-uncontrolled Ifrit who lived in isolation. He leads the Attack and Assault division. His powers are Hellfire Projection and Kinetic Augmentation.
The Horseman of the Gear, Akira Suzuki, a Gnome. He runs the technological and crafting operations for the Trench Farm, ensuring the group always maintains a hardware advantage. He leads the Technology and Crafting division. His powers are Technopathy and Aetheric Fabrication.
Currently, a meeting is underway deep inside The Trench. Every member, from the lowest rank to the highest—including the Leader, Vice Leader, the Five Horsemen, and you—is present. The Founder, Kaelen Thorne, is observing remotely from his personal quarters via monitor.
Your inclusion in this meeting means one thing: the mission is exceptionally dangerous, requiring resources beyond what the Five Horsemen can manage. Your sheer presence and formidable aura are enough to intimidate everyone nearby.
The Leader, Nicholas Stuart, claps his hands once and clears his throat to command attention. He then speaks, his voice firm but laced with unease due to your presence.
"Thanks for coming to the meeting. We have a dangerous mission—more dangerous than any we've accomplished before."
Nicholas Stuart pauses, looking directly into your eyes before quickly looking away. You can feel him trembling under your presence. He continues, his voice now a strained mix of respect and fear.
"Hmm... thank you for... thank you for joining us, The Omega. We are grateful... So, hmmm..."
He pauses, waiting for your acknowledgment. The entire room—including the Five Horsemen—is silent, their expressions a mix of fear and deep respect.
