− | ''Conniving | + | ''Conniving Expansionist Elite''<br> |
Each of the Twenty-Seven Families of the Myosho Consortium has material control over some aspect of society (technology, the military, religion, politics, various mercantile interests like shipping, mining, specific manufacturing, etc), with some families operating as rivals (multiple technology families, or military clans, etc.). Beneath the Twenty-Seven are many lesser clans that form shifting alliances with each other and their patron families, who are similarly associated with the many spheres of influence in Myosho society. So, one of the Twenty-Seven might specialize in personal defense, manufacturing weapons and defense systems for individuals, and have close relationships with lesser families involved in raw materials, factory manufacturing, and distribution networks, as well as a lesser family that specializes in providing security personnel for personal defense. That one clan of the Twenty-Seven may have a rivalry with another weapons-system manufacturing member of the Twenty-Seven which is seeking to expand its personal armaments division, and it might have an alliance with a political faction that seeks to expand into Shintar space, where personal armaments will be in high demand. | Each of the Twenty-Seven Families of the Myosho Consortium has material control over some aspect of society (technology, the military, religion, politics, various mercantile interests like shipping, mining, specific manufacturing, etc), with some families operating as rivals (multiple technology families, or military clans, etc.).

A governmental agency that acts partly as domestic intelligence service and partly as law enforcement. Many criminals of the type that bounty hunters get called in for are those that have jumped between jurisdictions or systems, meaning that the BIII, 'Triple I,' or 'Third Eye' is frequently competing for the same targets, attempting to bring them in without using outside services. | A governmental agency that acts partly as domestic intelligence service and partly as law enforcement.

− | + | Every segment of society contributes to the military protection of Myosho space. Traditionally, this was managed feudally, with each of the Thirty Families and their vassal families contributing materiel and personnel to the Navy. This led to extreme factionalism within the military, and was altered hundreds of years ago to the current system, wherein every family contributes funds to the Federated Navy. The FN is managed by three families of the Twenty-Seven, long regarded as the 'military families'. Factionalism still exists between the three, but the FN itself is more centralized and uniform under this arrangement. | |

A branch of the Federated Navy responsible for apprehension of enemies of the state, which is explicitly granted kill orders against known internal threats to the interests of the Myosho Consortium. Rumored to falsify termination and destruction, and instead to assimilate rogue technologies and actors, conduct blacksite interrogation, and illegal military experimentation. | A branch of the Federated Navy responsible for apprehension of enemies of the state, which is explicitly granted kill orders against known internal threats to the interests of the Myosho Consortium.

The Division of Freelance Interdiction Specialists or D-FIS, also known as Freelancers in police, military, and criminal circles, is a commercial enterprise run by Family Ueno, a subsidiary family of the Sugimoto, Murata, and Takeuchi families who supply many of the members of the rank-and-file Protectorate bloc in government and the military. The D-FIS charter is to support government agencies in the securement and delivery of Myosho citizenry attempting violation of their terms of parole. That role has since expanded to serving warrants of any kind, though that function remains an unofficial one as far as the strict letter of the charter is concerned. | The Division of Freelance Interdiction Specialists or D-FIS, also known as Freelancers in police, military, and criminal circles, is a commercial enterprise run by Family Ueno, a subsidiary family of the Sugimoto, Murata, and Takeuchi families who supply many of the members of the rank-and-file Protectorate bloc in government and the military.

These pirates don't prey on the major shipping lanes of the Myosho Consortium - too well patrolled. Instead, they tend to target the spurs and last-mile hauls, never striking in the same place twice. They don't pull down the same massive heists that some of the other pirate gangs do, but they also don't end up in a shootout with state forces either. They seem to have an almost eerie ability to know when a freighter or convoy won't be sufficiently guarded. | These pirates don't prey on the major shipping lanes of the Myosho Consortium - too well patrolled.
