“They vilify us, the citizens do, when there is only this difference, they rob the poor under the cover of law,
and we plunder the rich under the protection of our own courage.”
- The Purple Pirate, 2945
Membership by invite only.
HIGH-SEC PIRACY
The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Cargo haulers, blockade runners, military shipments—if it moves, we can take it.
PRISON EXTRACTION
Locked up in Klescher? Chained in some forgotten cell? No cage in the ‘Verse can hold you when the Racketeers are on the job. We specialize in high-risk breakouts, daring escapes, and the kind of jailbreaks that make the UEE nervous.
WETWORK & INTIMIDATION
Some people don’t listen until they’re staring down the barrel of a gun. Others need a more… permanent solution. Whether you need a ghost or a grim warning, we deliver.
GRAND THEFT STARSHIP
No ship is off-limits. Capitals, fighters, luxury yachts—if it has a Quantum Drive, we can steal it.
LOW-SEC MINING & SALVAGING
Some call it looting, we call it opportunity. If there’s wreckage, it’s ours to claim. If there’s gold in the rocks, it’s ours to take.
SECURE CRIMESTAT REDUCTION
Got a rap sheet that would make an Advocacy agent sweat? We know how to clean records and erase past sins—for a price.
SMUGGLING
Drugs, weapons, stolen goods, rare tech—we move the unmovable. No questions asked, no trails left behind.
LOW-SEC PROTECTION & ESCORT
Not all targets are worth looting—some are worth guarding. Hire us, and no pirate, mercenary, or bounty hunter will get through.
RECON & COVERT OPERATIONS
Need eyes on an enemy? Want to know where your rival stashes their loot? We see all, we hear all, and we never leave a trace.
DEBT COLLECTING
Some people need a reminder to pay their dues. We make sure they never forget again.
By Decree of The Purple Pirate, 2946
To the bold, the cunning, and the free—
We are the Racketeers, forged in the fire of the First Great Jumptown War, tempered by battle, and sharpened by the wealth of lawless ambition. When the Empire wavered and the weak begged for order, we stood unbowed—cutthroats, smugglers, and profiteers bound by no laws but our own.
The ‘Verse is not given; it is taken.
We do not kneel to UEE masters, nor cow before corporate barons. We are the specters in the black, the silent hand at your throat, the hidden whisper of deals made in the dark. From the smuggling lanes of GrimHEX to the back alleys of Terra, our influence seeps into the cracks of civilization, turning its own greed against it.
Our Creed:
Fortune Favors the Fearless – Wealth is won by those willing to seize it. Caution is for cowards; we take what is ours.
Loyalty is Gold, Betrayal is Death – A Racketeer’s word is their bond. Break it, and the stars will never see you again.
No Gods, No Kings, Only Profit – We bow to none, but we rule the underworld with an iron grip.
The Void is Our Kingdom – Space belongs to those with the will to claim it. The Syndicate leaves no system untouched.
Blood and Business Walk Hand in Hand – When deals are struck, we shake hands. When deals are broken, we break bones.
To Those Who Dare Join Us
Know this: Once you wear the mark of the Syndicate Racketeers, you are more than an outlaw—you are a force of nature, a storm in the endless void, a shadow that bends fate to your will. We do not seek permission. We do not beg for favor. We take our place in the stars, and in doing so, we become legends.
So, if your heart beats with defiance, if your hands crave the weight of riches, and if your soul thirsts for the freedom of the stars—step forward. The Syndicate awaits.
For Power. For Profit. For the Syndicate.
Signed in blood and shadow,
The Purple Pirate
Founder of the Racketeers
First of His Name in the Void
