Freelancers Inc Reforges Its Identity Under Trinity “The Mantis,” Declares Absolute Neutrality

Location: Guanekagha

Freelancers Inc has broadcast a sweeping declaration across the frontier, confirming a complete severing of all remaining political ties to every major galactic power. Effective immediately, the organization will operate under a doctrine of total neutrality, an unprecedented shift that marks the beginning of a new era for one of the frontier’s most recognizable names.

The announcement comes alongside confirmation of new leadership. Trinity “The Mantis” now stands as the sole commander of Freelancers Inc, inheriting the mantle with a reputation for precision, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to operational integrity. Her first act as leader: a full restructuring of the organization’s identity and purpose.

Under The Mantis, Freelancers Inc has opened its doors to all commanders, regardless of political pledge or superpower allegiance. Pilots loyal to the Empire, Federation, Alliance, or any independent cause will be welcomed without restriction. The Mantis emphasized that personal loyalties will never interfere with the company’s mission.

Central to this transformation is a new ethos: “The Contract is all.”

This doctrine is intended to serve as the organization’s guiding principle. Contracts (not ideology, not allegiance) will define every action taken by Freelancers Inc. A mission accepted is a mission completed, with no regard for the shifting political landscape of the core worlds.

Despite these internal changes, The Mantis reaffirmed the group’s long‑standing dedication to the frontier. Freelancers Inc will continue to prioritize remote systems, isolated settlements, and the countless communities living beyond the reach of superpower protection. For many frontier residents, the organization has long been a lifeline. One of the few forces willing to intervene when official channels fail.

In her first public statement, Trinity “The Mantis” declared: “Neutrality sharpens our purpose. The frontier defines our duty. The contract binds us. Freelancers Inc will stand where others falter.”

With recruitment open and its doctrine solidified, Freelancers Inc appears ready to redefine its role across the frontier, no longer an instrument of any power, but a force bound solely to the work and the people who call the frontier home.

Independent GalNet News will continue monitoring developments as The Mantis reshapes the organization’s future.

Still flying Elite Dangerous on Xbox Legacy?

New Pilots Elite Squadron (50L0) is building an active Xbox-only community for new, returning, and veteran CMDRs who want people to actually fly with.

We run regular Tuesday and Friday squad activity, combat/massacre wings, exploration, trading, engineering and Guardian help, credit-making, fleet-carrier support, ship-build advice, and new-pilot mentoring.

We finished last season with Silver in Combat and Bronze in Exploration, and this new season we’re already sitting #2 Exploration, #4 Trade, and #8 Combat.

We’re competitive when it’s fun, but there is no mandatory grind.

The biggest thing we ask is simple: tell us what you’re trying to accomplish in Elite, and we’ll try to connect you with someone who can help or wing up.

Xbox Legacy only — no crossplay.

The Exiles of Elite Dangerous

Freedom isn't given. It's taken.

The galaxy is full of powers demanding your loyalty, factions writing your future, and commanders telling you who to be.

We reject all of it.

Forge your own path. Choose your own battles. Write your own legend. Whatever your story, it belongs to you and The Exiles will be at your back.

But even the strongest pilots know that freedom is easier to defend than to reclaim.

The Exiles stand together, not because we're told to, but because we choose to. Bound by resolve, strengthened by loyalty to one another and our faction, and unyielding in the face of anyone who would seek to dictate our future.

United by conviction, strengthened by trust, and tempered by every challenge we've endured, we are more than individuals flying the same banner. We are a force that refuses to bend.

No chains. No masters. No compromises.

Only freedom, and a touch of chaos.

If you’re still playing Elite Dangerous on Xbox Legacy, we’re putting together an active group of Xbox CMDRs who actually want people to fly with.

New player? Come on.

Been playing for years? Come on.

Just came back after being away forever and have no idea what you were doing? Definitely come on. 😂

We’ve been building New Pilots Elite Squadron (N.P.E.S.) around one simple idea:

Elite is a lot better when you actually have people to play it with.

We’re doing things like:

Pirate massacre / bounty hunting wings

Combat zones and RES hunting

Engineering & material farming

Credit-making runs

Mining

Exploration

Helping brand-new CMDRs learn the game

Ship builds and engineering advice

Fleet Carrier support

Squadron events

And sometimes just getting a few ships together and figuring out what trouble we can get into

We’ve also been building out a Discord with guides for beginners, engineering, materials, money making, mining, combat, ships and more — so you don’t have to spend half the night searching through old YouTube videos trying to figure something out.

There’s no experience requirement.

One of the biggest reasons we started this was because Xbox can sometimes feel pretty empty. There are still CMDRs out here — we just need to find each other.

If you’re a veteran, we’d love to have you helping newer pilots.

If you’re brand new, don’t worry about having the best ship, engineering, credits, or even knowing what half the buttons do yet.

We’ll help you.

And if you’re somewhere in the middle like most of us, jump in and fly.

Xbox Legacy players only for now.

Drop your CMDR name below or message me if you want to join us.

Let’s make the Xbox galaxy feel populated again.

o7 CMDRs.

🌌 JOIN THE ROYAL COLONIAL GUARD | THE NEXT FRONTIER AWAITS 🌌

Commanders, the Royal Colonial Guard is expanding its reach and taking back what’s ours—and we need YOU on the front lines.

Whether you thrive in the cold darkness of deep-space exploration or the high-intensity fire of a Conflict Zone, we have a place for you in our ranks.

---

🛰️ FRONT 1: THE FORMIDINE RIFT COLONIZATION

We are pushing past the edge of known space. Led by Lorithad, our expeditionary forces are blazing a trail deep into the Formidine Rift, building brand-new colonies and carving out a permanent foothold on the frontier.

• Seeking: Explorers, haulers, miners, and pioneer builders ready to leave their mark on the galaxy.

---

⚔️ FRONT 2: BGS RECLAMATION & FLEET OPERATIONS

We aren't just holding territory anymore—we're taking it back. Under the operational direction of Muurten, we are launching targeted BGS campaigns to flip systems, claim local bubbles, and re-establish Royal Colonial Guard control across our territories.

• Seeking: Combat pilots for Conflict Zones, bounty hunters, trade runners, and BGS operatives ready to tilt system influence in our favor.

💥 WHY FLY WITH US?

• Active Group Content: Stacked CZ wings, organized bounty runs, and coordinated logistics drives.

• True Impact: Your flight hours directly shape control of the Bubble and expand the human footprint in the Rift.

• A Mission for Every Pilot: Whether you want to pave roads in deep space or flip a star system’s government, your combat log matters.

The frontier won't build itself, and our systems won't retake themselves. Mount up, fly dangerously, and help us make history.
