Good faction concept, the RP seems sound.
However, if I were you, I'd try to be extra-fair to smugglers you find in game. Smuggling, expecially non-Junker, full unlawful smuggling, is the hardest job in the game. Everyone is out to hunt you, lawfuls won't tax you like a pirate would a trader - they'll demand a full cargo drop or just shoot you 100% of the time. Profits are much lower than ore running, danger is much higher, travel times are far longer. Smuggling activity is already low and need encouragement, not discouragement, since it's objectively worse in every way than normal commodity trading except for the occasional rare event. A pirate never wants to blow up a lawful trader if he can help it. A lawful hunting a smuggler always wants to murder the smuggler. Sadly, that's how it works. The smuggler is already in danger of earning less profit than the lawful trader and assuredly runs higher risks (less bases, less likely anyone will come to hep you, hostiles mean "game over" instead of a 20% profit loss, etc).
If you catch smugglers, try to be considerate and generally be nice to them. Smugglers get attacked by -everyone- already, so they'll need the experience with you to be fun and compelling. What makes you fun to interact with, instead of just another group who will shoot at smugglers after a "well, what do we have here? Hauling contraband are you? Better drop your entire cargo"-esque encounter?

Thank you for your Feedback, Diplomatic Relations and 2.B have been modified accordingly, as its understandable that not everything is perfect and a few things may require minor tweaking later.
the chance's are a Wolf would most likely be working in pairs with ether a House Enforcement, fellow wolf or someone else working from the bounty board, a Smuggler, normally may comply to demands how ever as a freelancer ID, the ability to request the cargo to be dropped doesn't normally seem possible that being said if its dropped of their own free will then nothing happens, they get bold and make a run for it then those in pursuit may or may not give chase as any one individual is not required to but may engage said target according to the bounty's guide lines if they chose to.

That makes sense, thank you for the clarification.

what? no, it a metaphor, for example "Lone wolf" can be used to refer to someone who does things by them self.
in this case it refers to "those who hunt existing problems" and "those who tired of being preyed upon".
RE: Wolves of Sirius - Information - Arbs - 02-13-2018
Awesome.
See you in space then. Remember to register on the bounty boards.

No.
is my immediate answer, its far to early to think of such things, for now I will wait and see what becomes of us, if we do well enough for some period of time and its something people would like, assuming such a time comes at all, then i would be open to consider the idea and rethink if it would be good for us or not.
until then, we will stay as is.
