GENERAL INFORMATION

• Unit Name: Jawa Fleet Salvage Corps
• Affiliation: Agents of Chaos, United Salvage and Recovery
• Classification: Tier One Special Operations Salvage Strike Force
• Description: The Jawa Fleet Salvage Corps are an elite salvage strike team unit, capable of rapidly stripping virtually all forms of military hardware. They are driven by a fanatical devotion to an exotic pink Goddess of salvage, in addition to a collective addiction to mudhorn eggs and various combat stims. Curiously, while working on stripping ships for parts, they tend to blast Jawaese dubstep and heavy metal music via sonic-amplified loudspeaker systems. This music is played to such an extreme volume that it can be heard from outside of their ships, even within the vacuum of space.

• Combat Function: The Jawa Fleet Salvage Corps does very little in the way of actual fighting. Rather, their goal in combat is to salvage as much equipment and valuable materials from enemy starships, vehicles, and hardware as possible, no matter the cost in life or personnel and often while said equipment is in use mid-battle. Although entirely useless in terms of holding or taking a given position, they are able to strip down enemy military hardware with extreme speed and efficiency. A single large group of them is capable of tearing down a typical capital ship with ludicrous speed, depriving the enemy of critical assets while they are distracted with engaging legitimate threats. In addition, they are typically accompanied by a horde of mynocks.

Strengths:

• The Brown Horde: The Jawas swarm their chosen targets and set to salvaging with a single-minded focus and are as difficult to get rid of from a ship as a horde of Gizka.
• Stim-Powered: Hopped up on combat stims, the horde does not tire, it does not falter, it desires neither repast or dialogue, only more salvage will do. Wounds will not distract, death is not a deterrent.
• Special Operations Salvage: They “attack” in unison and without reason, often surprising a foe by salvaging hardware behind a position thought secure or while teams are focusing on another defensive objective. However, they will not hesitate to charge into hostile fire in order to attain valuable salvage.

Weaknesses:

• Non-Combatant: Due to their diminutive size, Jawas are largely unable to wield weapons that would pose a significant threat to armored man-sized targets. However, their stun and ion blasters are extremely capable of stun-locking hostile soldiers, especially when utilized en masse.
• Hardcore Salvage Zealots: The members of the Jawa Fleet Salvage Corps are extremely reckless with their own lives, to the point where they are willing to take insane risks to attain valuable salvage, even with large swathes of their comrades falling around them. Often ignoring an attempted engagement for more of the stuff.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Recruited from all across the galaxy, specifically Tatooine, Arvala-7, Jakku, and other planets with a significant Jawa population, members of the Jawa Fleet Salvage Corps represent the most elite and dedicated tier one salvage operatives of Jawa-kind. The unit was hired by the Agents of Chaos in exchange for a massive contract guaranteeing them seemingly unlimited salvage and a supply of mudhorn eggs. Naturally, they also developed a minor cult surrounding the supposed divinity of pink mudhorns, often painting variations of them on their pods interiors.
