The
companymen
are a group of former soldiers. All veterans of
the
Conflict in The Democratic Republic Of Congo, but made up of
members
from all sides of the conflict. They all had the
unfortunate
coincidence of being prisoners of local Terrorist cell
who had
planned on ransoming them back to their home
militaries. When the ransom was refused by both the
Americans and the EEC,
they
were to be
tortured executed on film as a statement to the foreign
powers, along
with Sufi J'oran. With one night before their
execution, the
group decided to work together and escape, overpowering
their guards
and killing their way out.
Grown extremely resentful of their governments, the group
worked as
mercenaries in
Africa, South America, Eastern Europe, and Southeast
Asia before deciding to stop fighting other peoples wars
altogether. Instead they became thieves, using their
military
training and tactics to pull precision strategic jobs on
banks, armored
vehicles, jewelry stores, and anything else with high
profit, easy to
move merchandise. Starting in Europe 14 months ago,
they were responsible for a series on jobs along the
Mediterranean coast then in Britain and France. When
the heat started coming down they came
to the states, hitting the east coast first until a month
ago when they
switched to the west coast.
They
prefer to take jobs that hurt the governments of either the
US
or the EEC, they tend to not go after private businesses
unless they
have government contracts or holdings. However
if the money
and plan are tight enough, they will do anything.
They also have no problem whatsoever with
killing police
or any other
government employees.
They use their military and paramilitary contacts to
procure weapons and equipment for themselves. All jobs
are
researched well in advance, with several contingency plans
carefully
laid out. They have several off-shore accounts, and a
web of
contacts to move stolen goods.
The Companymen make their home aboard the Yacht "Sunday
Morning".
All their gear is stored in hidden and shielded compartments
underneath
the boat below the waterline, as well as their loot.
The Yacht is
registered under false ID's though the Companymen have full
documentation verifying those ID's as their own. The
yacht boasts
full scuba gear for each of them, as well as registered (to
the same
false ID's) Rifles and handguns to repel pirates (they NEVER
use these
weapon on a job). In addition to the latest in
military small
arms, the Company also utilize South Am Conflict era U.S.
surplus armor
(SP:25 EV:-4 Helmet has built in radio, LL, AD, and Therm).
