Less of a concrete group and more of an upstart anarchist ideology, the Wire Guided movement is a polysentience-based Freespacer organisation that boldly advocates the dismantling the old Free State and all of her motherships.

Seeing the polysentience as the singular unifying factor of the Deoradh race, and the only 'true' territory that the race should hold, they unexpectedly began to gain popularity overnight by stray voidfolk of all the sub-factions. In particular it is supported by spacers who made peace with Yamatai, Nepleslia or Origin Industries, as well as Type Twos who fear the oppression that a return of the old Free State would bring. Strangely, this makes their willingness to operate on planet-bound facilities actually rather high.

Their overall goals include;

• Directly integrating themselves into the culture of other empires, improving their cultural standing through trade services, AI expertese, and high-radioactivity mining ventures. This often includes using planets (particularly pre-colonized ones) as bases of operation.
• Reactivating the natural breeding capabilities of their members, and absconding large motherships in preference for smaller, more actively helpful 'geneships'.
• Further genetically engineering their members to the point where they more closely resemble spacer technological aspects, I.E. Continuing to operate even after extreme damage, and being able to survive in almost any environment.
• Cracking the restricted technologies of other races, making their secrets free for all to use.

The use of both non-spacer recruits within their ranks and more advanced foreign technologies is actively sought out, making them welcoming, if sometimes dubious and subversive, trading partners.

Typically, they have been refused access to the Ley Line gate system as a result of their political views, but are beginning to utilize native FTL technology (sometimes entire vessels) to circumvent this. The viridian_array, on the other hand, are on mildly good terms with them, which leads some individuals to actually become members of both organisations.

Individual members are often known as 'Wireheads'. Joining the Wire Guided is completely free to anyone, regardless of race, religion, or synthetic nature. The only restriction is that they must have a connection to the polysentience with which to share information, be it traditional mindware, the nepleslian knock-off, or using nekovalkyrja radio transmissions with a plug-in program.

Information is stored on other members as a simple 'thumbs up or thumbs down' system, giving a baseline to suggest how trustworthy an individual is. The system is regulated and maintained through thousands of separate mindware nodes, meaning it is next to impossible to hack.

On the other hand, Wireheads that belong to another parent organisation are not actually expected to partake in subversive activities (such as cracking the technology they are involved with) if it would put their life or personal livelihood at risk. Generally, it's seen as fair game if a particularly disgruntled employee gives tips to other members who are also a part of an opposing faction, however…

Finely scattered individuals are operating all throughout known space, including deep inside of the territory of non-spacer races.

Formed in YE 38 by Freespacers of the great lighthouse who feared a resurgence in old Free State beliefs, mostly due to the strange covert activities being performed around Freehold Factory, and later Null and Void.

Unexpected support was given by spacer Origin Industries workers who had fallen off the grid since the cataclysm ten years prior, and quickly spread even to Nepleslian space, particularly by those unimpressed by the macho attitude of the Viridian Array.

The final spark which really set the party off was the invention of the Liquid Ally on planet 188604, effectively being junkers that could be produced on the fly without the need for a large mothership or gypsy industrial to fabricate replacement parts.

Negotiations are currently in progress to set up more independent network nodes, so that their communications would no longer depend on the great lighthouse or it's backup for transmission.
