Hell's Jesters

The Grand Galactic Alliance rots from within, and now the disease is terminal.

As interplanetary governance deteriorates, the mega-corporations sweep into the vacuum with their own form of order, propped up by brute, paramilitary force. Lives mean nothing. Profit overrides peace. And everyone is out for themselves.

The people cry out for heroes. They find them in the Hell's Jesters, once marauders of the space lanes, now outlaws with a cause. This motley band of crusaders and criminals, human and renegade AI, will speak truth to power with firepower.

Laughing at death, fighting like hell, they might be enough to free the galaxy.
