The Red Hessians are a large unlawful group mostly comprised of disillusioned miners and political dissidents, originally formed to eliminate the corporations that have exploited them for so long.
Synopsis
Red Hessians are the third largest unlawful group in Sirius, outnumbered only by the two warring Hispanian factions in the Omicron systems (Outcasts and Corsairs). They operate mostly in Rheinland and the Omega sector, although raids sometimes take them as far as the Cambridge system in Bretonia. The group is known to attack corporate shipping all across Rheinland, looting and dealing in stolen goods as well as smuggling diamonds to fund their extensive operations. Their large umbrella of influence almost completely encompasses the Dresden and Omega-11 systems, with roaming packs of fighters a frequent sight to any passers by. Dresden is expected to fall under complete Hessian control as soon as the corporate mining stations there finally run out of concentrated mining areas.
However the most likely reason for their notoriety in the criminal underworld would be their endless conflict with the Corsairs, notably manifested in the visibly split system of Omega-5. Divided into two sides, the no mans land in the middle is frequently host to savage battles between both factions.
The Hessians are a part of the Outcast alliance against Corsairs.
