The Nepleslian Organized-Circuit Boxing League was founded in YE 40 in coordination with New Yellow Relief and Developmental Society. A dual-service of providing a shipping and packaging company and a national mechanized boxing league for Nepleslia, the NO-CBL has gained a cult following and is steadily rising in popularity as a combat sport within Nepleslia.

The NO-CBL is a large organization that quickly sprung up and pushed primarily in the Nepleslian Colonial Expanse. With a small fleet of privately-purchased Terrene transports, they take on civilian, corporate, and government contracts to transport goods around it and to the inner Nepleslian worlds.

However, they quickly evolved to handle one of the largest problems Nepleslia is faced with: children who lose their parents to the street-life and military careers commonly-found in Nepleslia. And not long after, they found an even bigger calling by the creation of the NO-CBL's circuit boxing league.

The bread and butter of the NO-CBL, the transportation services they offer primarily focuses on packaging and deliver. Their fleet of 40 transports is relatively small and unarmed, but they handle most of their deliveries through the use of drone-assisted personal transport. This has given them a personal touch that many Nepleslians enjoy over the generic humming of a drone delivery, while also allowing safety to the deliverer. This also gives them a significant leg-up in more valuable goods, as the personnel are generally armored and geared for dealing with the dangers of a Nepleslian street.

Their transportation HQ is based in System P1-9 "Fortuna", where they receive most orders either through or to the colonial expanse.

They have since constructed Youth hostels to allow orphans a place off the street. They are offered a chance to learn and live there for free to the age of 16, receiving instruction and training offered via specifically-prepared courses available over Lazarus-made networking. They are similarly provided access to a gym and free meals through the day. Children in the local area can be brought to these locations for cheap, allowing them to spend the summers or days away from school in safety instead of running around the gunfight-laden streets of Nepleslia.

Those who live or attend the hostel at age 16 or greater are generally able to pass and acquire a GED-equivalent degree, allowing them to move on to another life. However, they also offer the youths part-time entry-level jobs into the NO-CBL's delivery company.

Another option for ex-orphans and youths who visit the NO-CBL hostels is that of a boxing career. Available only when they turn 18, the NO-CBL offers orphans and aspiring youths access to three types of careers in this.

While there are variations for what it looks like, the NO-CBL utilizes the punchrig for fighters. A uniquely designed combat suit that fits over the torso, it generally can be modified for someone with additional limbs or has cybernetic ones to limit or boost their fighting strength to a peak. The protection offered by these suits allows not only more gruesome and full-on battles, but also extends the life-span of fighters greatly. This allows the Nepleslian soul of toughing things out to truly shine, with some of its earliest bouts promoting fierce and explosive battles that would last the entire round.

Unlike traditional boxing, the NO-CBL's focus on skillful shots shines ever brighter with allowing multiple-armed fighters like Abwehran to enter the arena with their punches reduced in power to equalize the fighting field. Some members of the NSMC have even taken to participating in fights while off-duty, hoping to make a reputation for themselves.

The most often-picked job despite the dangers, most youths love the grit and promised fury of NO-CBL boxing. The primary body of boxers currently consists of those who joined up and were of age, but the hope is that in the future there will be a generation of fighters who grew up with the dream of stealing the glory from their rough starts on the gritty streets of Nepleslia.

Often a good route for those without muscles, these are the future business men and women of Nepleslia who take on the role of working for their fighters and under the tutelage of more seasoned agents. Most of them tend to transition around quite a lot, but often losing their jobs isn't as bad as it might be as every fighter is looking for representation even if it's from someone who's disrespected. The ideal job for thinkers who are also dreamers.

Those who wish to not be involved in the ring but want to work physically are taken under the wing of an official trainer, where they spend their days learning the ins-and-outs of the fighting styles allowed within the Boxing League's fights. Many of them also are capable of maintaining and working with the equipment as well, making them quite skilled mechanics.

Thanks to the size of Nepleslia's borders and population, the NO-CBL holds a guaranteed timeslot in the televised Nepleslian News Network once a week, but can be found via usage of the Public Communications Network and licensed to those in neighboring nations such as Yamatai.

Every Friday, there will be between 15-30 fights hosted back-to-back on the segment “Fight Friday”.
