The JUNKER CONGRESS

[Guest]

/*

None of these exactly involve such a high level of education.

They also don't necessitate an absence of it, thus (for our particular characters at least) it falls into the realm of creative liberties.

Business does define the Junkers...but what kind of business? Racket? Smuggling? Gun-running? Scrap collecting?

Again from the infocards:
"The Junkers make their official money from salvaging debris within the fields, but also have a good deal going with various criminals, who like their "no questions asked" policy. Tolerated by the governments, Junkers sometimes deal in contraband, though they are extremely hard to catch red-handed. They are frequently patronized by the criminal elements for the refuge they offer within the often hostile territory of house capital systems."

Player Junkers generally combine this with knowledge and presumptions about the independent nature of the Junkers to justify mining, gun-running, and sometimes lawful trading, smuggling, or just plain old exploring.
