Note: Though Freelancers are ubiquitous across the Orion Arm, the implications of the term begin to change as one progresses deeper into the Far Frontier. In the Local Cluster, Sea of Clouds and other highly developed regions, Freelancers are a normal, regulated part of interstellar society. In the territories surrounding the Colonial Republics however, the term has taken on a more multifaceted and legally gray role. Freelancer Captains operating in the Frontier are often associated with privateering, mercenary work, bounty hunting, smuggling and political agents. |
