The Gallic Brigands are a large, loosely affiliated union of space pirates, first appearing in the late third century AGS. Born out of the heavily stratified societies of Amiens and Marne, various Brigand groups began to take hold as fiercely independent, self-styled highwaymen who took from the rich and gave to the poor. In reality, most are little more than common criminals, engaging in smuggling, theft, and open piracy. The influx of foreign traders and general instability of the Union has lead to a massive increase in Brigand membership and activity, something that is not expected to slow anytime soon.

Rumors

Kirkwall Base Shoving the Gallic Police into Reunion - or Cordes as they now call it... "His Grace" has a sense of humor. Even in the best of times that station had trouble tracking anything. After a visit by the Navy, what's left of that wreck is blind as a bat. Hells, I passed within a kilometer of the station on my last run - didn't even receive a hail to identify myself. What a joke! There's a strong demand for Cardamine in Gallia if you know where to deliver it. The rich-and-bored see it as something new and thrilling, thus pay well for it. They either don't know, or don't care that it's mortally addictive. Me personally? I fall in the not caring category. If you're caught by the Gallic Police, it doesn't hurt to hint at being willing to pay a "fine". We've got men inside the mid and higher echelons, but the patrols? They often look out only for themselves. A bribe here or there can quickly cause a "scanner malfunction", and you're on your way... I'm here to pick up a load of Cardamine, then I'll sneak back into the Gallic core worlds. The Outcasts have the orange ice, we have the means and experience to get it where it needs to be - a mutually beneficial deal.
