The Merchantmen Corporation History

A Journey From Shadows to Stardom
In the year 2919, a child named Unknown was born into a world shrouded in secrecy and strife. With blond hair and green eyes, this young soul was destined for an extraordinary path. His parents, driven by their opposition to unjust laws and their yearning for privacy for the people of Hurston, named him Unknown, a symbol of their defiance.

Unknown’s childhood was marked by hardship and poverty, never truly knowing his mother as she succumbed to illness when he was just a young boy. Left alone, his father sought solace within the ranks of the Extremist Group, forsaking his family in pursuit of radical ideals in 2937. Forced out of his home, the young boy took to the streets, surviving by delivering small packages to the people of Hurston. It was during this time that he developed a profound love for the intricacies of commerce, envisioning a future where he could establish his own company.

As the years passed, Unknown found himself working for the UEE, dedicating his efforts to their cause. But the more he toiled for others, the more he realized the disparity between his own meager existence and the wealth amassed by those he served. The desire for independence burned within him, and after nearly three years of service, he made a momentous decision—to embark on his own journey and forge his own destiny.

With unwavering determination, Unknown saved every hard-earned credit, liquidated his possessions, and acquired his first ship. Thus, his own small business was born. Starting with just one, he undertook small runs between systems, delivering goods and services with utmost dedication. His commitment to providing exceptional products and unwavering customer service became the bedrock upon which his enterprise flourished.

As time passed, his reputation soared, and the galaxy took notice. People from far and wide began referring to him as “The Merchantman,” a name that resonated with his unwavering pursuit of excellence in trade and commerce.

In the year 2948, The Merchantmen was officially registered as a trading company, boasting extensive expertise in the realms of weapons, armor, and commodity markets. From the very beginning, The Merchantmen Corporation adopted a neutral stance, focusing solely on delivering on their promises, irrespective of personal gain. However, the increasing conflicts within the Verse forced a pivotal shift in their approach.

Recognizing the need to protect their reputation, stock, and clients, The Merchantmen made a bold transition, expanding beyond mere traders to active combatants. This strategic decision ensured that they could safeguard their interests in the face of mounting challenges. Their commitment to delivering exceptional service and standing up for what they believed in remained unwavering.

If you find yourself drawn to a narrative steeped in the remarkable journey of a young soul, rising from the shadows of a turbulent past to the heights of interstellar success, then The Merchantmen Corporation welcomes you with open arms.
