Margrave '''Corentin Delacroix''' is the leader of the Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid, an [[Empire]]-aligned minor faction that originated in the Mudhrid system. The son of the Order's previous leader, the Landgrave [[Arastin Delacroix]], Corentin inherited control of the organisation after his father's incarceration in the [[Marlinist Colonies]] in April 3307. The Margrave oversaw the Order's resurgence in November 3307, when it recaptured the [[Steel Majesty]] [[megaship]] with the aid of [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army]] fighters and [[Aaron Whyte]] loyalists from the Marlinism Reformation Party, and jumped the vessel from Hyades Sector RO-P b6-2 back to Mudhrid. | Margrave '''Corentin Delacroix''' is the leader of the Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid, an [[Empire]]-aligned minor faction that originated in the Mudhrid system.

To break a blockade enforced by Mudhrid's security service and allow Theta Seven to safely transfer to the Steel Majesty, Margrave Delacroix declared war on the Epsilon Fornacis Empire Group, the same faction that once defeated his father, and called on Neo-Marlinists across the galaxy to fight in the conflict. | ||

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>The Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid and the Epsilon Fornacis Empire Group have declared war in the Mudhrid system. The [[Steel Majesty]] [[megaship]] is serving as the base of the Neo-Marlinist forces. These include many surviving [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]] terrorist cells that gathered to overtake the vessel from the [[Marlinist Colonies]]. Also in the system is the [[Far God cult]] megaship [[Sacrosanct]], where the NMLA's de facto leader [[Theta Seven]] and the remnants of Theta Group have been in hiding for months. They recently took control of the vessel and are holding thousands of cultists hostage. The Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid have offered a uniquely augmented [[Enzyme Missile Rack|enzyme missile rack]] to its highest contributors if certain objectives are met. Margrave Corentin Delacroix broadcast a call to arms: "All those who seek to topple the [[Imperial Family|Duval]] dictators must fight alongside us here and now. Neo-Marlinism has no future unless its believers defend it." The Epsilon Fornacis Empire Group is orchestrating its campaign from Payne-Scott City [[starport]]. [[Senator]] [[Denton Patreus]] has requested that [[Empire|Imperial]] auxiliaries provide the faction with combat support. [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT's]] co-leader Captain [[Saskia Landau]] stated: "The NMLA clearly places huge value on Theta Seven's ability to produce caustic enzyme weapons, and has risked concentrating in large numbers to defend him. If he can transfer to the Steel Majesty and escape, the threat of further atrocities like the [[Nine Martyrs]] bombings will remain high."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/619f87b6ec2baf12582da95a GalNet: The Battle of Mudhrid]</ref> | |||

*The [[megaship]] [[Steel Majesty]] has arrived in the Mudhrid system after being taken over by [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]] terrorists. Its original owning faction, the Neo-Marlinist Order of Mudhrid, has officially reclaimed the vessel. Margrave Corentin Delacroix, the faction's new military ruler and the son of former Landgrave [[Arastin Delacroix]], announced: "The Steel Majesty has returned home to fulfil its destiny. Be warned: should any ships attempt to board or attack, all the former crewmembers still onboard will be executed." Senior Agent [[Tanya Ramirez]] gave a statement on behalf of [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]]: "Unfortunately, we cannot take action while hundreds of innocent people remain captive. But the NMLA's effort to assemble troops, supporters and resources must not succeed. Having the Steel Majesty as a mobile base will allow them to regroup for a new campaign of terror – especially if they manage to reach [[Theta Seven]] before we do." A spokesperson for the Epsilon Fornacis Empire Group, which controls the Mudhrid system, claimed: "The hostages should be considered lost as casualties of war. We are prepared to perform our duty for the [[Empire]] once again by destroying the Neo-Marlinist threat."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6197a66c59a8504c152cf914 GalNet: Neo-Marlinist Forces Gather in Mudhrid]</ref> | *The [[megaship]] [[Steel Majesty]] has arrived in the Mudhrid system after being taken over by [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]] terrorists.
