The Karzai Consortium, was founded by
Marcus Tournij and
Michael Ichosira. Having a common interest, a taste for adventure and the will to try brought them together. They had merely two days to prepare themselves.
Locations had to be decided.
Corporations had to be contacted.
Relations to be improved.
But the most important bits for the end: Ships, Fittings & Pilots, which are always in short supply for these daredevil ventures.
The Consortium itself deals in many philantropic trades, and some misantrophic among also.
Miners, Craftsmen, Mercenaries are the offical sides of the Consortium but of course there is backside to every coin.
'
The Pirate Lord', as he cockily named himself, but being a mere pup of the craft, he is unorthodox. However, he flies openly for the Consortium, branding his ventures as 'Unorthodox Privateering'.
