Union Against Religious Abuse

The Union Against Religious Abuse, UARA for short, is an Alternate UUniversal athiest organization that originated on Planet Jomos. It was founded by Xena the Lost Warrior after her family suffered years of being punished and charged of heresy all because they wanted to share valuable technology for stopping the Villains Act. To stop charades like this, Xena formed the UARA after being placed under house arrest for the last time, and dedicated her life to balancing out religion and the law properly and fairly. The UARA believes that religion is like magic powers and political powers, and it could easily be used as an excuse to easily control and subjugate people with rules that normally can't get through non-religious establishments, which has been used to make excuses for anti-LBGT community rules, blocking technological advancements, fear-mongering, empowering insane fanatics, warmongering, and cruel and unusual punishments for even so much as a minor unserious crime that isn't even police-enforced, and want to make sure those kind of things are not allowed as a reason to get away with crimes, and make the AUU a better place. The UARA's 'police' forces are composed of cybernetic clone officers called Messiah Officers, which are known to appear in 5 different models, and ride in 3 different vehicles.

Members

 * Xena the Lost Warrior- Leader
 * Wesper- Xena's combat mentor and co-leader of the UARA. She and Xena have a Twilight-Celestia relationship and Wesper trains Xena to fight for her beliefs. Wesper was a former princess for her home-hive of Voradin until their autocratic society was threatened by a corrupt governor's religious standards. Wesper was banished for protesting to this, and she and Xena decided to help each other stand up to religious abuse. She trained Xena in the art of combat, and in return, Xena took down the religious governor for good and the religion was abolished by the governor's open-minded brother. Wesper gives her position as heir to one of her little sisters, and she continued to guide Xena to this day.
 * Vorlanna- A blonde Hydrocabiais from Planet Solomorn who was rescued from execution long ago by Xena after her home planet's religion was about to end her life due to the skull-shaped birth mark on her back. Since her home world apologized for their actions, they allowed Vorlanna to join the UARA, and she grew up to become an excellent fighter, wielding twin electric katanas and various explosives. Her birth mark now symbolizes her loyalty to the UARA, and she gets offended by those who make fun of it.
 * Zorb the Wise- A benevolent blue-and-white tiger-like lion who was rescued from execution by his mother at a young age for naming his stuffed animal after a god, which was considered blasphemy. Because Zorb was taken away from his executed mother, Zorb grew up, apostatizes himself, and joined the UARA to prevent any other blasphemy case like that again.
 * Joa Dukbil- A duck-billed flamingo who is the daughter of a corrupt magistrate that was unsupportive of anti-gayness in their religion. She was so grateful for the UARA putting a stop to her corrupt father's crimes against his country and joined them to aide their quest in stopping religious misuses. She is much of a drama queen who always obsesses with her looks and her beliefs.
 * Sir Holthar- A former mole-like bat knight that was once in service to a tyrant king of mole-like bats who made up a realigen about himself as an excuse to misuse power. He never supported it one bit, but was helpless to do anything about it thanks to wanting to keep his family alive. Thanks to the Union, the tyrant king met his end, and Sir Holeish joined the union to prevent more madmen like his ex-king to abuse both policitcal powers and the power of belief.
 * Jessa the Non-Praying Mangris- Jessa Mantria is a mantis-like insect who was a member of a lesser advanced group of tribal-mantis like creatures that were tricked into worshipping a false god king just because he had higher level tecknowagey that was confused for "Godly Magic". Jessa was the only one who knew better, but was too afraid of what the false god would do to her if she tried to stop it herself. When the oppertunity was met with the union, she was quick to offer poison as a way to proof the false god was a false god, and joined he union's cause to prevent realjustus misuse.
 * Inigo Jr- A senator son of the grand council's Councilman Inigo, he was dethrowned as senator by radical realijustus fanatics and was forced to serve as a slave or be banished to an artifictal hellish realm. When these radicals were beaten ironicly by their own evil creation by the Union, he joined so he can offer a more "Diplomatic" side of the union so the AUU Grand Council won't longer see them as just a vigilantie group, esepically not by his own father, through relations are still on a thin-line due to Headmaster Warson being widely unsure cause of his friendship with Xena's enemy Zealord.
 * Sir Groomta- Groomta is a simian knight who joined the union as a request of the king and queen of Gregamoon for the union being merciful and understanding that an outdated realijustus testament that was hurting abortions wasn't their fault and ridding them of certain factors that worsen a few problems on the planet. He shares the appresiation for the Union not always punishing realijustus leaders for a realigen hurting process or living things, but is very concerned for their controversey of being too quick to use death as a punishment even when he understood that most realijustus tyrants have went too far, and is always willing to offer alternate ways to dispose tyrants as threats and not as living things if there are still opitions.
 * Iarge the Ominous- A scarred and muscular lizard who was once wanted on his planet after being accused of being possessed by a devil after puking a religious substance that was infected. Everyone on his world, even his own friends, tried to exorcise him by force, and no matter where he went, he was always found thanks to the police forces being technologically-advanced. When he is accused of resisting several arrests and heresy after his final arrest, the UARA rescued him, and condemned the priest for his crimes. Since then, Iarge joined the UARA, growing from scrawny to muscular in less than 2 years.
 * Professor Scain- (Maybe this would learn you to not take too long on these things) A feline scientist from Qaclite who was from a green tec corperation that was prosicuted by a strongly anti-corpeate fanactical preist too fearful for the evioment and unreasonable that he was forced to get the Union involved who were left with smaller opitions to be rid of him indiffently. Scain lives in personal regret he ended up tecnecally ordering the "assassination" of someone who turned out to be a desendent of a Exo-Wars victim, but still thanked the Union for stopping the problem at all and joined as their tec guy. He granted much needed upgrades for MO's and vicitcles.
 * Palque the Excommunicate- Palgue is an Ichthyornis-like bird similar to Icky who got fed up of a zealotical ruler mistreating other bird spieces for his race's own benifit. He teamed up with the Union and managed to assassinate the leader, twice since it was found out that the leader's first form was robotic and the real leader was a tiny zealotical criminal known for relijustus fruad. Palque is always quick to make harsh remarks on ANY religen, even if it's a harmless one, being like the Union's own verson of Icky, only even more cynical and sarcastic with very rude dry humor. While Xena understood he suffered badly from relijustus abuse, she doesn't let his overly harsh comments go too far and insists that "Palque doesn't speak for the union by a certain extent" in terms of establishing relations to outside forces like respected dignitaries. Palque also has a bad habit of being a hopeless romantic, to the annoyence of the female members, espeically Wesper who has the misfortune to be the "most attractive fruit" of the bunch.

Defeated/Stopped/Corrected Religious Criminals
(More coming soon...)
 * Govener Zea Loture- A religious and corrupt Atont govener who used the religion of Zoomblo as an excuse to abolish independent powers so he can rule all nations in the planet he governs. It proven to end his positive relations to his family, his senate, all nationalies, and most of all, it would cost him his own life when he couldn't even barely defend himself against a heavly trained Xena when his own guards deserted him when even his brother, and his formerly loyalist general abandoned him and left him to get stomped on. Sentence: Death
 * Father Jer Kan- A treacherous pope of Solomorn who was charged for trying to execute Vorlanna for being a 'devil spawn' of a 'Skull Devil' thanks to her skull-shaped birth mark. As a result, the UARA pressed charges against Jer Kan for this religious crime, and reminded the people of the skin condition Vorlanna had not being demonic. Sentence: Death
 * Preachlord Noom- The religious ruler of Zorb's race. Noom was ruler for several years until he was charged for an unfair blasphemy accusation against Zorb when he was a cub. He believed that the god "Shakona-Nimm" wasn't allowed to be represented in media or naming. He deemed Zorb naming a toy after Shakona blasphemy and wanted him stoned to death. But when his mother tried to protect him, Noom decided to spare Zorb and stone her instead. As years passed, Zorb spent years in an orphanage and when he grew up, he renounced his religion, and joined the UARA. The UARA, after hearing about Zorb's story, told it to the AUU Grand Council, and they all charged Noom for unfair execution. Plus, he was also charged with trying to execute Councilman Naeem's wife for naming her pet worm after a god. Zorb became the new leader under the rule of the UARA afterward, and abolished the religion of Shakona. Sentence: Dethroned, exiled, and sentenced to life imprisonment on Oranos.
 * Magistrate Dukbil- A gay-basher fear-monger from a race of duck-like flamingos who wanted to eradicate the LBGT community because it 'violates' the will of the goddess queens of reproduction to be gay. His willingness to prosecute a straight family for defending their gay friends proved Duckbillon had to be stopped. The family called the UARA to handle the situation, and Duckbillon was condemned for it. The UARA made all the avian creatures revolt against him, and had been charged by the AUU Grand Council. The Union saw some potential for the religion to be spared under the conditions of less anti-gay testaments. Sentence: Imprisonment on Oranos.
 * King Holy- A monk-king of winged mole-like bats who created a religion to make it excusable for him to do whatever he wants, and executes people whether they violate a testament or out of his amusement. His gross-misconduct was intolerable and had to be stopped. The UARA surrounded his palace with armies of heavily-armored MOs, hybrid tanks, and infantry vans. It wasn't until Holy insulted the UARA's pride that they decided to break in and overwhelm him. Sentence: Executed by Xena for resisting arrest, assault, and insulting the UARA.
 * God King Niooms- A false god of creation that was just an exiled tyrant from a planet of cockroach-like ticks. He tried to trick a less-advanced race to obey him as a god for being more advanced then they are, and converted their kingdom into a theocratic empire. This empire lasted for only 2 months until the UARA arrived and brought him out into public, where they proved he wasn't a god by executing him. It was tough proving it since his race was known to live 5 days after decapitation, so they did it with poison. Sentence: Death (To prove his 'immortality')
 * The Churchmen- The Churchmen are a group of devil-horned reptilian enslavers that ruled half of the Ichgee System for a certain period of time. They were known for their cruel religious laws, and the creation of the Sin Realm, an artificial hell created by their alchemy. They banished those who were accused of sin, heresy, blasphemy, impiety, even for using a god's name in vain. The Churchmen are amongst the Union's most dangerous enemies, and with their strong mercenaries, magic powers, and their bad tempers, were a challenge to them. It wasn't until they used the Sin Realm against them that they were defeated. The Ichgee System hailed Xena and the Union as heroes. Sentence: Banishment in their own Sin Realm.
 * The King and Queen of Gregamoon- The King and Queen of Planet Gregamoon had high religious properties. They are the least evil of any religious criminals the UARA handled because they are benevolent rulers and treated their people fairly, and rarely over-punished people even if it calls for it. However, they are victims of an outdated religion testament concerning a "The birth of new life is precious" rule that made them ban abortions because to them, they thought their gods forbid it. Xena did realize it wasn't not their fault entirely, their religion was founded before their planet had technology where the idea of abortions didn't exist. The planet had problems with babies being born due to rape and/or unready premature mothers or had second thoughts, and some mothers end up dead from giving birth, which also lead to a problem of over-populating and a growing orphan problem. Because of this, a lot of people violated this law, and have forcefully had their tubes tied as punishment. What kept the King and Queen from changing the law was their overbearing controlling advisors, who threatened to charge them with heresy and have them banished. But when the UARA asked them to uphold a bill that legalizes abortion, the advisors demanded that the King and Queen be sentenced to sterilization so they could no longer bear young anymore. The UARA imprisoned the advisors on Oranos for commiting treason against their rulers, and prevented the sterilisation of the Queen and King. Afterwords, as an act of payback to those ungrateful advisers, the testiment was upgraded where the Advisers were demonised for mistreating the King and Queen and refused to benifet the people who were suffering form over-population and incrising orphans, and legalised abortions for those that decided not to have children yet or were victims of rape. Outside of that, the realigen is realitively unharmed by the UARA. Sentence: Asked to legalize abortions if the public so chooses and update the testaments.
 * Father Gizzardo- A priest/mayor of the town Iarge was from. After he accidentally gave Iarge a contaminated substance of "Holy Liquid" that was filled with bacterial colonies which caused Iarge to puke, he accused him of being possessed by the demon 'Kongamork the Destroyer". Gizz spread lies throughout the town about how Iarge could mean their end, and even Iarge's own friends were against him. Iarge was further accused of resisting arrest, and heresy, and after 5 arrest attempts, was about to forcefully get exorcised. The Union came, rescued Iarge, and after proving to everyone that the Holy Liquid was contaminated by bacteria, they all attempt to impeach Gizz for his lies. Iarge also ends up suing him for it. But even though he apologized, Gizz was sentenced to a 10-week house arrest and a 5-week suspension from office. But overall, Iarge did felt he was too harsh to Gizzardo, realised that it was all a huge misunderstanding, and dropped the charges to show no hard feelings Sentence: 10-week house arrest and brief removal from power.
 * Father Groman- Father Groman was an anti-scinece preist ruler of the planet Sciken. He became ironicly self-corrupt when he wanted to prevent Sciken from forsaken the nature presevring religen when outsider corperations were making the people of Sciken faver tecknowagey. He knew the price of being tecnologically advance would have some effect on the evioment. Thing is, these outside corps are fairly benvolent and are very green, and offered tec that doesn't harm even so much as a little flower, a sort've, "have cake and eat it too" deal, where the people can still enjoy nature, but no longer live in such a primitive life sytile. But Groman had a history of anti-corperation feelings since he had a grandfather that was injured badly from the Exo-wars, having a great mistrust to tec in general. He tried to prosicute the CEOs of the clearly harmless corperations and accuse them of being greedy flase promisers! A local sciencetist of one of the corperations had enough of Groman's bullshit and reported him to the Union, who due to him getting surprisingly violent, had to be put down. His death marked an end for religen in Sciken Sentence: Death.
 * The Holy Brother- The Holy Brother is a zealotical ruler of the entire planet of Genovian, the planet of Ostrich-like raptors that have very theocratic prinicals on other creatures in their planet. Creatures not the same spieces are forced to follow their laws, their rules, and worship their gods. A local atheist thought it was serious bullshit and got excommuted over it, having an even worse place in socity then ever. The Excommuted soul finally had enough, escaped, and got the union into this. With their help, he assassinated the Holy Brother personally by decapitating him in front of his followers, which surprisingly, he was nothing but a robot controled by a small Zealotical criminal Flea-like creature guilty of relijustus scams. The "Holy Brother" was finished off as his true form, the Excommuted hailed as a hero and the phoney religen abolished, making Genovian an equil community under a new fairer ruler. Sentence: Death

Still-At-Large Religious Criminals

 * Zealord The Zealot- A very personal foe of Xena, and practicly poloticly powerful. Connecions with the AUU Grand Council and Warson and being carasmatic makes it diffitcult to stop him for good. However, his lies about Xena being a VA fanatic has been starting to be questionable when the only time the Grand Council has heard of Xena is when she stops legit realigeious abusers and villains, and a majority of the Main Council Members have indeed started to question Zealord's creditability. Warson does still trust Zealord fully, but even he is abit curious on how a "Greedy Sellout Villain's Act Terrorest" is fighting against Tyrants as suppose to invite them to join the VA. Very Suspicious. But Warson has too many positive memories with Zealord, and is very conflicted to what and who to believe. A dear old friend, or his personal enemy?
 * Judgement King- A former ruler of a planet with a realigen about how great and dark he is. The Union was able to prove he was not a god and he was detrown and banished. He became a rouge traveling Zealot trying to force planets to accept his self-incert realigen, but is chased off by the Union everytime. He's yet to be caught by the Union or the Heroes Act.
