Nextuus Planetary Defense Force (NPDF)

The Nextuus Planetary Defense Force (NPDF) was established when the Confederation settled Nextuus as a standing army to defend the planet from the ever-expanding empire of the Donts. The Donts did come and the NPDF was barely called into action before the war was over.

When the war was conluded it was decided to keep the NPDF active, in case war ever broke out near Nextuus space again. There is always a standing force on the planet, which doubles as suppoer for (or, in some cases, replaces) local law enforcement.
