[b]”The Underworld”[/b]

Little is known about the group called the “Underworld”, what is known is that it runs in a huge space station, attracting various lowlifes, smugglers thieves and people among those classes. On the outside, the station looks decently maintained, however boosting defenses to keep it self away from the usual “suicide run”.

The Underworld on the inside is a well-run machine; On top is the leader of the space station, Joseph “Jackhammer” Green. He runs the space station and its mercenary groups, smuggling groups and stuff. His organization has he calls it, is the umbrella organization for other groups. The question is why isn’t this space station captured by a armed force already?

Well, they are a few theories, beside from corruption and the fact that the station has defenses… 

1.	The Underworld is known to offer its services to various nations and there representatives when needed, most common services include information gathering/brokering , smuggling illegal items through one station to another. Buying other military’s weapons and etc. These services help the nations, in-exchange however, the Underworld desires it may be kept “at peace”
2.	The Build-up of Mercenary and Rouge Fighter Squadrons has made any campaign for the space station troublesome. Even if one [b]does[/b] manage to get through the first heavy wave of Anti-Spaceship guns, torpedoes and fighter squadrons. They’ll be fighting an extremely uphill battle. The mercenary groups operate mostly on pieces of turf among the station. Not only that, but when someone tries to land. Various other countermeasures are in affect. Rumour has it that they sometimes quarantine a district for civilians and people, remove them before releasing prisoners or a toxic gas..
3.	Illegal Research Firms and Scientists for Hire as people call it, tend to be on the space station. Labs for researching and devolving toxic war gases, chemicals and other weapons of mass destruction also exist, creating a deep cover for nations wanting to make one of this calibre, of course… the high credit fee is in play as well.
