As encompassing as the Grand United Alliances are, there are those who don't feel they fit into any of them. Rather they have their more specific visions for the omniverse, though do not have the level of support that the Alliances do.
While they tend to be apart from one another, the Associations sometimes work with the larger alliances, though often out of necessity. However they pledge no loyalty to any grand alliance, and often are wild cards to the rest. Their structure varies depending on their founder's vision and management. Some consider them the Trope Pantheon's equivalent to third parties. They do not have any specific color in Cyberspace for their Tron Lines, instead it's an individual choice.
