Sea Urchin has officially launched a DDS faction at a media briefing on Remedia Prime where he is currently completing treaty talks with the Utrek. He said his faction would be an alternative to Windy Madness and Hoods 2.0, both of which he said were mired in religious extremism. By contrast he said his faction, now named Liberty is Freedom (LIF) would be be free from ideology and be a professional faction for young and old DDS who wished to achieve personal growth.
LIF had already established an office at GHQ and applications were now being taken. The Hoods already have defaced posters advertising LIF with the slogan "Liberty is weakness, control is strength".
