History
The Maw Consortium was originally a small ten ship raiding group based out of the outdated Maw Installation formed several decades back. Their leader Void destroyed all information pertaining to his past once they had started to grow, secluding himself in the installation and communicating with the outside world via hologram. None the less the Consortium grew and began to rapidly do so when their tactics switched from plain Piracy to a much broader field of crime. First, Rackteering and Black Markets became popular, taking profits from the sales made in both areas, then as their numbers grew they began to partake in intimidation tactics and extortion. The Consortium then spent the next few decades increasing its wealth and steadily building up its coffers and fleet, finding a old, out dated, and poorly retained Lucrehulk-class Battleship. With this find they spent the money needed to rebuild it and allow for it to become a mobile base which is used much like a space station is, only this space station can use hyperspeed and change systems at will. The ship soon became the command and control center of the Consortium, guarded at all times by either the majority of the fleet. Or when it is sent on diplomatic mission, a fraction of the fleet, though enough to defend it from attacks, is sent to guard it. Dubbed the Galaxy's Shadow, it serves as the constant reminder of the hard work put into expanding and funding the consortium, and perhaps at one time, it can serve as the Consortium's flagship in conquests and heavy fleet operations.

Ranking System within the Consortium:
Dominus Scelesto:
The head of the Maw Consortium, this individual has the complete command over the consortium much like a dictator or king would. Orders made by him are too be followed and the only ones with the power to question such orders and provide consul or alternatives are the Classis Admiraldis in the Consortium. The Dominus also has complete control over alliances and buisness transactions made by the Consortium and is present at the deals nine times out of ten, though he leaves the setup and running of the deals to the Classis Admiraldis.
Classis Admiraldis:
This rank is given to the admirals and generals of the Maw Consortium. They handle both the military operations that require a strategist or tactical strikes, or any large battles that involve the Consortium fleet(s) or ground force(s). They also run the financial and public relations of the Consortium, while being watched during said financial and public deals by the Dominus. Furthermore they have the highest say in the Consortium and command the highest respect. Their orders can only be questioned by others of their same rank and the Dominus, the latter of which can veto said actions and deliver consequences for such.
Iussi et Dixisse:
Those of this rank run small fleet operations, establish criminal enterprises, provide escort missions for those who pay, and oversee spec ops missions carried out by Equites Umbra. In other words they are the officers of the Consortium and command the respect given to someone of equal rank in other forces such as a captain. The are also highly trained infiltrators and strategist, but have not reach the rank of say a Classis Admiraldis. They oversee the construction of ports, setup of black markets, partake in intimidation and assassinations, and have full command over the Equites Umbra. The only ones with the authority to question their actions and reprimand them are the Classis Admiraldis and the Dominus.
Equites Umbra:
These are the Spec ops troops and body guards of the Classis Admiraldis. They are the ones intrusted with Assassinations, Black ops, and terror operations such as kidnappings, bombings, and intimidation tactics. Their training and conduct are oversaw by the Iussi and they answer directly to the Dominus but maintain loyalties to the chosen Iussi they are put under during missions or the Admiraldis they are assigned to protect. When used the Equites are to be feared by those they are sent at.
Imago Aspergillo/Inanis Accipitres:
These are the bulk of the Consortium's troops and pilots. They are basically the smugglers, troops, fighter pilots, engineers, and other miscellaneous groups that make up the Consortium's bulk.
