History

Nova Forge Industries (NFIND)
h3. Company History

Date Incorporated: Monday, June 15, 2950
Headquarters: Terra Prime > Terra > Terra

Nova Forge Industries was founded by Nazeris Nova Cadian, a man whose journey through hardship and redemption forged the values that still shape the company today.

Born in 2925 in a less affluent part of New Austin, Nazeris grew up surrounded by adversity. His father, Roland, worked three jobs to support the family, and his mother, Adria, was chronically ill but devoted herself to raising their five children with what strength she had.

Tragedy struck when Roland was killed in an industrial accident involving a distracted MOLE pilot, leaving Adria to carry the burden alone.

From a young age, Naz was captivated by the world of transport—spending hours watching freighters come and go at the local hub, dreaming of helping people across the empire get what they needed.

In his late teens, driven by desperation and the need to support his family, he fell in with a group of smugglers. Though their methods weren’t legal, they treated him like family, and it was with them he learned the ins and outs of cargo operations and engineering, particularly aboard Drake Caterpillars.

Eventually, after a falling out with his brother and a life-changing visit back home, Naz decided to walk a straighter path. He happened upon a Covalex hiring office and jumped at the chance to sign on as a junior engineer. He left the smuggler life behind and began rebuilding his reputation and future.

Years of hard work and dedication with Covalex paid off. He saved enough credits to purchase his own ship, and in the summer season of 2950, he bought a Hull-C and officially established Nova Forge Industries —a company built on second chances, hard-earned values, and the drive to uplift others.

Leadership Transition – 2955

In June of 2955, after five years of leading the organization through its foundational phase, Nazeris Nova Cadian stepped down as CEO to pursue personal goals. While no longer in an executive role, he remains with the company as an employee and occasional advisor.

He named Hoban Foray Washborne —previously Chief Operations Officer —as his successor.

Hoban assumed the role of Chief Executive Officer on June 18, 2955, pledging renewed focus on outreach, recruitment, and evolving the organization’s practices to meet the changing demands of the ‘Verse—while honoring the values at Nova Forge’s core.

Manifesto

At Nova Forge Industries, we believe strength is not measured in credits or firepower—but in character.

We are a collective of professionals, misfits, dreamers, and veterans who’ve all chosen to forge a better path—together.

Formed from hard lessons and second chances, Nova Forge stands as a beacon for those seeking purpose among the stars. Whether you’re just starting your journey or returning from darker chapters, you’ll find a place here. We believe everyone deserves an opportunity to rise, to grow, and to contribute.

Our mission is clear:

  • To provide essential goods and services across the ‘Verse—through mining, cargo transport, salvage, and logistics.
  • To act with *integrity, kindness, and trust*—regardless of the system we operate in.
  • To uplift our members through community, mentorship, and mutual respect.

We operate efficiently, communicate clearly, and support one another with grit and grace. Every shipment we deliver and every asteroid we mine strengthens not only our company, but the people in it.

This is more than a job. It’s a legacy forged in effort, loyalty, and vision.

We are Nova Forge Industries.
Leaders in kindness. Acting with integrity. Built to uplift.
