The Liberty Corps
From the maps of Liberty City, Coffin Canyon is not chaos.
It is a Forbidden National Park.
A vast, federally claimed preserve set aside for study, stabilization, and eventual development under the authority of the United States of Liberty. Entry without permit is illegal. Resource extraction without oversight is theft. Armed presence without sanction is sedition.
That anyone disputes this is… unfortunate.
The Liberty Corps exists to resolve that misunderstanding.
Why the Liberty Corps Are Here
Coffin Canyon was closed for a reason.
The land is unstable. The air is toxic. The ruins are dangerous. The wildlife—especially the monsters—pose a clear and present threat to public safety and national progress. For decades, the canyon was quarantined, studied from afar, and written off as too costly to tame.
That has changed.
Silver veins demand oversight.
Thyr demands control.
And monsters demand management.
The Liberty Corps has been dispatched to secure the park, enforce federal exclusion, and prepare Coffin Canyon for responsible use. That includes infrastructure, rail access, controlled extraction, and—where necessary—lethal intervention.
Progress does not ask permission.
Philosophy: Preservation Through Authority
The Liberty Corps believes in preservation.
They also understand that preservation requires decisive action.
Unchecked monsters threaten survey teams. Unregulated gangs destabilize claims. Unlicensed mystics interfere with classified research. The canyon cannot be protected if it is allowed to remain wild.
From the Corps’ perspective, monsters are not sacred. They are hazards—like floods, landslides, or gas pockets. If a monster can be studied, cataloged, or contained, it will be. If it interferes with infrastructure or personnel, it will be put down.
This is not cruelty.
It is stewardship.
Red, White, and Blue Jurisdiction
Liberty Corps banners fly at checkpoints, forts, and railheads across the canyon. Uniforms are immaculate. Orders are clear. Every operation is logged, stamped, and justified.
Patriotism is not pageantry—it is procedure.
To the Liberty Corps, the canyon is not lawless. It is under-policed. And every arrest, eviction, and “relocation” brings it one step closer to stability.
Resistance is treated as environmental contamination.
Uncle Liberty
There are contingencies the Corps does not discuss publicly.
One of them is Uncle Liberty.
The first President of the United States of Liberty. A living symbol of national resolve, sustained beyond mortality by steam, steel, and duty. Uncle Liberty is not deployed lightly. He is not a weapon of convenience.
He is a national response asset.
When Uncle Liberty appears in Coffin Canyon, it means the situation has escalated beyond local authority, beyond negotiation, beyond patience. His presence signifies that Liberty itself has deemed the canyon’s condition unacceptable.
And Liberty will be obeyed.
How the Liberty Corps See the Others
Monster Rangers
Well-meaning but misguided. Their sentimentality toward monsters undermines containment efforts and emboldens threats. The Corps tolerates the Rangers — for now — but keeps detailed files on their leadership and camps. They have been instructed to leave.
Shine Riders
Criminal trespassers. Poachers. Vandals. Their existence proves the necessity of federal enforcement. Arrest on sight. Recover stolen assets where possible.
Monsterology
Once a sanctioned research partner operating under classified agreements, the Monsterologists have proven themselves untrustworthy and driven by greed. They are unwelcome trespassers on the United States of Liberty hallowed grounds.
Liberty Corps — On Monsters
Monsters are illegal occult foreigners.
They are unregistered entities operating within a federally restricted National Park without permit, citizenship, or recognized legal status. Many originate from outside sanctioned territory, others from unknown or hostile dimensions. None have standing under Liberty law.
The Liberty Corps does not deny that monsters exist.
It denies that they belong.
Uncontrolled monsters represent:
A threat to public safety
A violation of federal exclusion statutes
An occult contamination of national land
A direct obstacle to infrastructure and progress
Some monsters may be temporarily tolerated for study, containment, or sanctioned use. Most are subject to removal, neutralization, or classified disposition.
This is not hatred.
This is enforcement.
Coffin Canyon is a Forbidden National Park, and monsters are trespassers—armed, dangerous, and unlicensed. If they refuse to comply with removal orders, the Corps is authorized to escalate force.
Liberty does not negotiate with unlawful presences.
Liberty cleans its borders.
What the Liberty Corps Want
The Liberty Corps does not want Coffin Canyon destroyed.
They want it productive.
A stabilized park.
A controlled ecosystem.
A regulated flow of silver and Thyr.
Monsters reduced to manageable numbers—or exhibits.
The canyon will be made safe for progress.
Whether it wants to be or not.
