Mitchell Able

Mitchell Able is the commander of the mercenary unit Able’s Aces and owner and operator of Able’s Hunting Arms, Limited. With the creation of the Timbuktu Collective, Able was given 2 votes on the Collection Council, one for his military unit and one representing the entire military. While a competent commander, Michell is a bit bain and feels threatened by Vedet Brewer joining the Collective. While he had no political aspiration in the past, he does want to oppose the former Archon.

As a military officer

Mitchell Able was never challenged heavily as a commander. The biggest threats in the general vicinity are pirate commands and raiders. Colonel Able does keep his men at the ready at all times, and takes pride in being “the commander of the Collective Armed Guards”. Current drills are generally run against Lyran machines, with the Colonel fully expecting Trillian Steiner and her cousin Roderick to follow the renegade Vedet Brewer.

As CEO

Mitchell Able runs Able’s Hunting Arms Limited with an iron fist. The company’s profit has grown significantly in recent years, with sales of autocannon parts and supplies to nearby worlds. The company also keeps producing quality small arms and hunting gear, but this has been used to arm Collective infantry units. Able’s Hunting Arms runs a single Invader-class JumpShip along with a complement of 4 DropShips to keep moving their goods.

On the back end, AHA has also been selling autocannon parts and supplies to the Rim Territories. This goes against the laws in place by the Timbuktu Collective regarding trading with pirate forces. Colonel Able justifies this by saying the Rim Territories is growing into an actual nation rather than a collection of pirate worlds.
