PRQ megacorporation
This corporation began as a side business – during the chaos of the late 400s and the Civil War, the massive military base at Pax Rulin was left short of vitally needed supplies and raw materials. The base quartermaster began using naval vessels as trade ships, exchanging out-of-date military equipment for steel, uranium, lanthanum and other goods. By the time the Civil War ended and regular shipments were once again assured, the contacts established by successive generations of quartermasters were too valuable to be allowed to lapse. PRQ (Pax Rulin Quartermasters) was spun off as an independent company, although it is still closely associated with the Imperial Navy.
Today, PRQ trades in Pax Rulin subsector as well as along the Florian and [Aslan trade routes. It is seen as a safe company, mainly because most of its crew are ex-navy and ships are invariably heavily armed. In a sector notorious for piracy, this is an excellent reputation to have.
