Court of Scavs

The Court of Scavs is a group of scavengers, looters, privateers, and hunted individuals who have made a residence for themselves in the Hersperus Nebula "Graveyard". The Court members are known to inhabit each of the ship hulls that still have functioning life support.   They primarily use Ship Class: GLF Light Transport Freighters C-6091 "Chariots" to move between ships and Ship: BZE Open Strike-Fighter "Hornet" for scouting and defense.   The Krasian Meritocracy officially lists the Court as a Scavenger and Pirate organization and has sought to root the Court out several times, but the familiarity of the "Graveyard", stealth of their ships, and constantly fluctuating berths has made the task nigh impossible for Krasian commanders so far.

Structure

The Court of Scavs is divided into 4 distinct Factions which each contain a number of families, ships, individuals, and general assets all living under the same principle and focus.  

Factions

Court of Scavs Faction: "The Made"

Trade & Transport

The Court itself maintains minimal assets, rather the assets are held under the heading of the three official factions of "The Made", "The Shades", and the "The Blades". The factions take a portion of the profits of each of their members in exchange for access to the faction's food, safety, and berths.   While the final faction, "The Frayed", are not given any political authority or voice as they are not required to "donate" a share of their profits to the Court but rather receive a large portion of the donated profits by the other factions. It is seen as an understood obligation and "honor among thieves" to care for their outcasts and societal burdens while being driven to the Court by being outcasts of their original societies.

Smuggled Support

The Court of Scavs, familiar with Aris from their transporters passing through, have been smuggling crates of Spacer's Slop food to the Underground in exchange for Scrap, Tech, and the occasional New Avonite willing to join with the Scavs.

Open Hostility

The Court of Scavs is a sore spot for Krasia's authority over the Krasian Colonies and they have spend years trying to hunt down the elusive Court of Scavs. Their efforts have rarely paid off and almost always simply added to the Hersperus Nebula "Graveyard".
