Background Information
No one knows the exact background of Captain Mezzomorto. According to a legend, he proved himself as a petty thief and rose in the criminal world. In another story, he plunged himself into the obscurity of space to avenge his lost wife and children. Another myth tells that he is a demon wandering in the vastness of space in search of unlimited power. To some, he knows every corner of the Poseidon sector by heart; to others, he is a determined captain who survives by plunging into the event horizon of the most powerful black holes. The only thing that is known for sure is the fact that he is someone who would do anything crazy for his crew and ship. His subordinates are like his sons, and to his men, Mezzomorto is a powerful father figure.
In light of all this, the Mezzomorto pirates are the scariest family in the industry. Mezzomorto’s ship, the Crooked Star, has high boarding ability. At the same time, hackers and their technicians can cause damage by crashing even the most protected ship systems. Few people live to describe Mezzomorto’s distorted accent and raspy calm voice that terrifies his enemies.
