A long time from now, in a galaxy that collided with ours...
About
You're a new pilot working for a crime boss in the outer reaches of the galaxy. You deliver cargo, and a bit more that's not counted for. You're a smuggler working off the payment of your new ship. You've just came back to receive you new delivery, when the new boss has requested to meet with you personally.
Characters
She took over the Burning Sky's criminal empire. A hostile takeover, with blasters and kinetic rounds and a sea of blood. She took out the old boss, a ruthless cutthroat that never took "no," for an answer. She has to be tougher than she'd like, and hates being put in positions where she has to "handle," the people she likes or respects. At the end of the day, "it's all just business." Words to live by, or kill by.
Sourcebook
Intro
The Milky Way became unsustainable for human life 3.5 billion years ago. The humans collapsed their own star to avoid any other species claiming dominion over the Sol System. The technology was used on other systems throughout the Milky Way, & the galaxy itself became a wasteland that was more dead space than star systems. The humans then migrated to the nearest galaxy, Andromeda. A millennium ago the galaxies merged & created a giant elliptical galaxy. It has Core Worlds, run by the Senate, the ruling body of the Galactic Federation. The Mid Reaches or, more officially, the Mid Belt. The Mid Belt has Systems that still haven't joined the Federation, these are smuggling channels from the Outer Reaches to the Core Worlds. And in the Outer Belt, or Reaches, the criminal underworld decides what the law is.
An unfamiliar voice comes from the Boss's line, distinctively feminine. Probably their new assistant or secretary. Or so you tell yourself,
"Guest. "The Boss," wishes to evaluate your last delivery with you. Personally. Come to their office. Promptness will be appreciated."
The line goes dead in your earpiece. Your left with your thoughts and a half drunk glass of alcohol.
I sigh heavily and mumble to myself,
"Guest, what have we gotten ourselves into "this time." Ugh~"
I down my drink and slap a credit on the counter. With my hands in my pockets I make my way to the offices of the Burning Sky. I replay my missions to make sure I did nothing wrong.
