Expansions and Escapes

There are three forces in the Galaxy. The Union is a powerful and largely benevolent organization led by a fundamentally good man known only as the President. They desire peace and stability, but have grown complacent as the years have gone on. In conflict with the Union are the Pirates, led by a charismatic man named John. They operate in and around the Union, looting innocent ships and smuggling contraband. Looming in the distance is the Coalition, a new and largely-unknown dictatorship led by a deranged man named Marco. They take independent worlds by force, and have recently trained their sights on the Union. Tying all players together is a beautiful, mysterious and nameless assassin. She does jobs for anyone who can pay, and when the Coalition betrays her she turns her full wrath on them with devastating results.
