The Apsis Consortium

The Apsis Consortium
The Apsis Consortium is a group of traders, this is true. However, treating this group of people like common merchants would be the last mistake you make. For example, an unsavory merchant may sell weapons to both sides in a conflict, the Consortium would do that and take it further by actually having a hand in starting the strife to begin with. Or, perhaps the Consortium provides desperately needed grain to a tortured by famine; a famine the Consortium spend 3 years engineering.

In Bloodcove the Consortium is the chief backer and, usually, silent partner to all business enterprises. Even freelance prospectors and unafilliated native fishers often work for the Consortium, they just don't know it. Paracount Brusk, a middle aged Chelaxian Half Elf, runs the operation in Bloodcove and subsequently most of the Mwangi Expanse.
