History
Despite it's completely uninhabitable and resource-barren planets, Frogstar G is a highly populated cluster due to its vital position as a choke point on the slipstream routes. From the early days of slipstream technology, two types of ships have passed through the barren system - some transporting goods and people between other Clusters, and the rest preying mercilessly upon the first. This environment led quickly to the establishment of the system as a pirate hotspot. The criminal community in the cluster flourished until several worlds began to dispatch military ships to deal with the pirate threat. During the short conflict that became known as the "Consortium War" Admiral-King Krulmst made his first appearance as an important figure. Under his leadership the united pirates not only repelled the military forces, but managed to capture the massive Starcruiser Battleship Justice in almost perfect condition. To this day Justice serves as the Free Traders Consortium's main base of operations and the flagship of Krulmst's war fleet, which is now estimated at being over 15,000 ships strong. No military force is willing to engage the Consortium in open combat now that its power has been solidified, and many fear a day when the Consortium leaves its barren, lifeless cluster to ravage those so dangerously close on the slipstreams...
