After leaving the BMM Daniel set off to forge his own story and make his own credits. Purchasing an old run down Dromedary he started his salvage operations. Daring to explore asteroid fields and nebulae for wrecked vessels. Daniel enjoys staying around Britonia space but he has been clear to Coronado and the omegas in search of free spoils.

He is a Hard man to read but good natured. Always willing to help and his temper never rises. He has a slight stint of depression from realizing that maybe his little salvage operation is not working how he thought it would.

Franky Hunter was born and raise on Buffalo Station in The Badlands in the New York system. His father was in prison somewhere in the Texas System and his mother was a local "Dock lady". Never having a family to help him and teach him, he relied on a family friend to raise him. Despite the stereotypes that are spread around Sirius about the Liberty Rogues, Franky had a good childhood. His "family friend" owned a small repair shop near the loading bays. Learning from him, Franky grew and was taught how to fix about anything on a vessel. Once he was old enough he applied for a position on a "smuggling" vessel as a repair man. During an encounter with a trio of Xeno light fighters. the ships gunman and all crew save for Franky, the captain and one Cargo mate, were all kill. With only one Turret left online Franky jumped to the controls and routed the three. destroying two before the third left the area in a smoldering mess near hull breach. Franky then Jumped from the gunnery controls and jumped into a space suit leaving the craft and repairing an engine from the outside to prevent H-Fuel leaks.

Word of his heroic attempt to save his life and the others of his transport earned him some heavy rep with the other Liberty Rogues, he received many offers to fly with different types of vessel. He was even offered a chance to manage a large slaver that made runs from Malta to Buffalo in the Slave/Cardamine trade. He took up a job on another transport that made a Malta/Buffalo run but not the slave vessel. As the ship entered the Coronado system Franky got in a heated argument with the captain over costs of engine repairs. They docked on the Barrier Gate station and as soon as Franky walked out of the vessel the captain loaded back up, shut the Airlocks and left him there. After Several weeks of doing od jobs on and near the base Franky met Daniel in the Bazaar of the station looming for more crew. Franky was eager to get off the station and back into space.

Vince McCarthy was raised on a Junker base in Britonia. At a young age his Father would take him out and show him how to operate the various mining lasers, salvage equipment, booms, claps, plasma saws, and how to properly operate his MASS (Mechanically operated Space suit). He would often catch flights with others to the inner system. Attempting to sell salvaged parts to traders and other local merchants. This is how he met Daniel. When he was twenty, he was with several other junkers selling very good engine components on Planet Leeds. Daniel just happened to be in the Bazaar wasting hard earned credits when they first met. They somehow clicked and talked for several hours about useless jargon and various recent trade items. He is the reason that Daniel started to think about living a free live to roam the stars for his "pot o' gold" At the age of twenty-eight Daniel sent him an E-mail starting that he had a position opened on a small vessel for salvage personnel. Vince took him up in a heart beat.

The Hamden was built in the year 698 to a young know it all junker. After the vessels hull breach in its maiden flight, she drifted the Hudson systems dead space for over 100 years before floating near a trade lane. A passing Junker Transport shipping scrap metal from Sigma 13 to Rochester station in New York system found the Hamden and put her in tow. Several years in a junker shipyard refurbishing her and getting her systems running again, and ultimately upgraded as well. The ship was sold at an auction to another young and eager Junker.

Flying en route from Rochester to Trafalgar Station in Britonia the was bombarded by a freak comet that appeared. ripping her new hull to pieces the captain had to survive by strapping himself to his seat while where a space suit. Stopping at a secret base known only to junkers, he had massive armor panelings bolted to the ships superstructure. Sealing the shredded hull up he took off again with the Hamden looking like a pile of self propelled scrap metal.

Finally making it to the destination in Britonia. The ship was outfitted with two arms with mining lasers attached. One on each side of the craft. Massive missile bays were mounted on the front of the ship to help rip open broken vessels adrift in space. The remaining turrets were outfitted with defensive guns to help ward off any attackers.
