Thaan |
The
Thaan Pirate Syndicates are a tight
organization of crimelords and gangs that have operated throughout various locations
in the Galactic Core for many years. Each gang is controlled by a local
crimelord, who in turn answers to the head crime boss headquartered in the
Thaan Providences (hence the name Thaan Pirates). Unlike the Orion Pirates of
the known Galaxy, the head crime boss of the Thaan Pirates enforces strict
control over all operations in the syndicate, with dissenters and rogues
being dealt with harshly. The pirates
operate a successful criminal empire mostly by raiding PAX
Cooperative trade routes as well as Andrium and Promethean supply
lines. Local crimelords have been known to act as mercenaries on
occasions, lending their services to both sides of numerous conflicts. Syndicate
ships are generally divided into three 'fleets', the Alpha Fleet is defensive
in nature - used to protect local crimelords, the Beta Fleet consists of
small vessels used to raid relatively lightly armed shipping lanes, and the
Omega Fleet - which is used in situations where well defended targets or
warships may be present. The frequent occurrences of pirate
activity in the "eastern" quadrants of the Galactic Core suggest
that the pirates utilize a number of uncharted wormholes for long range
travel. PAX Cooperative leadership has spent large amounts of resources
to verify this without success. |
