Gallic Brigands, otherwise known as the Free Brigands of Gallia, is a loosely affiliated union of experienced criminals and other antisocial elements, many of whom are former Police pilots.

Synopsis

While Brigands sustain some sort of romantic aura of medieval highway bandits who robbed the rich and gave to the poor, they often do the opposite, robbing smaller shipping companies in favor of larger corporations and their Police protectors. Brigands are numerous, and in large numbers are a force to be reckoned with; together with the Unione Corse, they firmly control all black markets in Gallic space. While the Gallic Brigands avoid political struggle and have no sympathy for the ideals of the Council, it is widely known that they have indirectly assisted Maquis and Council in various operations of the Second Gallic War, including the liberation of Marne.

Activities

As a pirate organization, the Brigands are involved in some way involved in nearly every illicit activity in Gallia. Rumored to control over three quarters of the black market, they ruthlessly enforce this monopoly. Longtime smugglers between systems, the Brigands have recently increased their profits by running goods for the Council and the Maquis.
