The Athena Foundation is an all-women's non-proift and Private Military Contractor founded in 196 following the end of the Blue Ridge War in Greater Acadia. The organization was formed from former members of the Free Women's Army of Southern Acadia, after the loss of the group to the Greater Acadian Defense Forces. The organization was founded by former Colonel in the Free Women's Army Maia Martens. Initially, the organization focused solely on charitable pursuits, assisting in building roads and schools in impoverished areas , disaster relief, as well as peacefully advocating for the advancement of women's and LGBTQ+ rights across the IDU. Such actions were described by the organization's founder as "penance" by the members for actions committed during the Blue Ridge War.
However, a lack of security in more war-torn and unstable areas began to see a return to arming, initially for self-defence purposes. This would grow as the organization began to assist other non-profits and charities in providing security for their operations. Eventually, some government institutions would contract the armed members of the group to provide security. Rather than clamp down on this behaviour, leadership of the foundation would instead spin off these armed groups into a sub-division called the Artemis Division. This group would continue to provide services to both the wider foundation as well as other groups and government entities in troubled areas. It would eventually grow in size and capability such that it could be considered a proper military force. They would take possession of The Naiad in September of 2020, which has since become the Foundation's mobile headquarters.
