Years after returning from the other side of the Wormhole of Acheron and cleaning out their files, the crew members of the Defiance and a motley crew of collaborators – including Kendriat, an impetuous Morat, and Jaan Staar, a Tohaa with unsettling abilities - serve as freelance agents and soldiers of fortune under the banner of their own mercenary company: The Revenant Mobile Intervention Force.

The MIF owes its name to the Revenant, the current moniker for the old and famous space daring vessel - The Defiance, which was the first human ship to ever reach Combined Army space and return to tell the tale.
