[Thanks for pantherchat's polishing and text-proofing :D]

Sanctuary isn't a faction from our universe. A thousand years ago, a rudderless white fleet traveled through the wormhole and came to this universe. They called themseleves the Sanctuary branch and built some chic and huge space stations at the edge of the universe. After arriving, Sanctuary made a series of discreet diplomatic agreements with several of the native factions. People gradually found that the Sanctuary is a faction led by artisans. They considered ship manufacturing as a craftwork that people would hand down from generation to generation and they will maintain thier proud ancient tradition forever. Sanctuary's emblem is composed of a compass and three pairs of wings -- A compass is a symbol of craftsman spirit, the three pairs of wings is the sustenance of their desire to overcome gravity since the ancient times.

Factions characteristics:

◇ Neutral - As a foreign guest, Sanctuary didn't seem to show overt consciousness of aggression and expansion. However when subjected to an alien attack, Sanctuary's fleets will rally together to resist the enemy.
◇ Old hull - Sanctuary is stubborn and will stick to their tradition. Even if the original white hull rusts and goes yellow, artisans of Sanctuary never thought of improving their armor. Sanctuary hull still keeps the old model -- heavier and low intensity.
◇ Fluolente ram - Sanctuary equips their own ships with heavy and deadly ram. Some Sanctuary captains thought that enguaging the enemy with cold weapons is the most honorable way of fighting.
◇ Esthetics - Sanctuary artisans are passionate about the aesthetic extent of their ships. In Sanctuary's databank, you can find some blocks only serviced for appearance and do not affect the ships performance.
◇ Optics - Influenced by their faith, Sanctuary artisans worship optics. All Sanctuary fleets were not equipped with a standard cannon. Instead, Sanctuary developed a wide variety of laser weapons.
◇ Explosive specialty - In order to make up for the disadvantage of not having a cannon. Sanctuary artisans provided an abundance of launchers for thier ships.
◇ Energy distribution - Sanctuary's energy system completely separates supply and storage. So you can build a high-supply low-storage ship,or a low-supply high-storage ship.
◇ Battlefield control - A Sanctuary fleet is good at controllling the battlefield. A defeated Sanctuary fleet encounter may be able to regain victory in positional warfare.
