Ranks: Deputy

CMB Deputies are the primary law-enforcement officers for United Nations colonies. Equipped with shotguns, revolvers, and armored jackets, these Deputies are often the first line of defence against Colony Liberation Front activity.

Interstellar Life Rights Council Peacekeeper

Ranks: Officer/Senior Officer

They are not a standing army and do not participate in wars or territorial defense. Their mandate strictly limits the use of force to self defense or the immediate protection of civilians. Typically equipped with light armour, many Peacekeepers join out of a sense of duty to protect the civilians present in the sector.

Peacekeepers operate under political and legal constraints, needing consent of the colony's host and adherence to the Stellar Accords. As a result, their deployments are often delayed. While officially neutral, their operations are largely funded by the United Nations and the Three Suns Empire, with the Socialist Progressive Peoples (SPP) providing minimal resources for the sole purpose of protecting their own.

Interstellar Life Rights Observer

Ranks: Interstellar Life Rights Observer

Operating under neutrality agreements, these observers document violations, interview witnesses, and compile reports on atrocities committed by governments, corporations, or otherwise. Its partly a PR stunt however, their presence serves as a deterrent against blatant abuses, and their findings are often used to pressure violators through media exposure or diplomatic channels.
