The Wet Bandits / TWBS

The Wet Bandits are a ruthless pirate organization that, like their namesake, continually moves to leave hefty water bills. They keep to the fringes of UEE space, never staying in one place long enough for the Advocacy to track them down. From what little information the authorities have been able to gather, it seems the Wet Bandits will board and take ships for their own. They either add them to their fleet, or use them as a decoy to draw in those unlucky enough to answer the automated distress call. The survivors are then sold, the cargo distributed, all wreckage salvaged. Nothing goes to waste, and nothing is left behind: not even their own people. According to one source, the Wet Bandits believe failure is death. One person left behind is one too many. All of their ships are rigged for remote detonation. Those who join the Wet Bandits, join for life.
