Morrison’s Extractors started out as renegades fleeing the Circinus Federation. Over the years, they established themselves as one of the two major military power within the Rim Territories, along with the Black Harriers. Having a supply of Star League era equipment at first and then Clan invasion-graded equipment, the Extractors are better equipped than most pirate bands.
History
Reform
From 3065, the Extractors had to rebuild their forces so they could challenge Blacks Harrier. Uldle Morrison invested a lot of his capital in getting higher end equipment compared to his rivals. A few other pirate bands in the Rim Territories area also threw their hats in the ring.
The Pirate War was difficult for everyone. Uldle approached a group of Dark Caste warriors to boost his force. Even with poor warriors, solahma and dezgra, the Extractors managed to reverse their previous weakened position. Rather than destroying all the other warlords, they gave all captains ready to “bend the knee” to join their new realm.
The Kingsguards
The Extractors became the main military unit of the Rim Territories. Even with Jaysen Blacks taking control of the Territories in the early 32nd century, they were called “Kingsguard”. The Extractors generally get the best equipment in the Territories, even during that early 32nd century era. While still “pirates”, they were drilled better and resemble a regular house military.
After Malax Morrison took power in the Rim Territories, he appointed his sister Haldia to the head of the unit. While unexperienced, she still raised the morale of the unit before “learning on the job”. With decent equipment, good motivation and the occasional strategic raid, the Extractors remain in active duty at all time.
