Hi! Welcome, welcome, what can we do for you today? Looking to buy or sell? Do you need something moved, or disposed of? Maybe you got skills in these departments, look for the small Recruitment sign in the back, and we’ll take care of you.
We have no history…but we have a future and it is the stars! The universe is a vast, dark and scary place. We’re here to make it a little more terrifying.
We are an organized crime syndicate based in one of the tallest skyscrapers in Tharsis on Mars.
We are led by a group of mysterious elderly men who are called The Van. The Van are usually seen wearing imperial Manchurian-Chinese clothing of the Qing Dynasty. The syndicate specializes mostly in assassinations, but are also involved in the trafficking of narcotics, Red Eye in particular. We also mine, explore, freelance, and are wiling to do ANYTHING for credits.
The rules of the syndicate are simple any member who attempts to leave, or fails to complete tasks, are punished by death.
