The once powerful Voragian Empire had fallen into decay and was finally usurped by the multi-gallactic Bengra Empire. In order to "adjust the Voragian populations" to their new masters, all the Voragian Armies and Fleets were destroyed, except for the Voragian Fifteenth Fleet, known as the Mighty Fifteenth and who were stationed, at the farthest end of the former Voragian Border, near the Dextra line, on the Lokarian Skirmish zone.
The Mighty Fifteenth, now without an empire to call home, were to be hunted down and killed by any Bengranian Space Battle Cruisers and Bengra Bounty Hunters.
The Lokarians, long time enemies of the Voragian, now, realizing the Bengra Empire had just moved in next door, were looking for mercenaries to fight for them. A nice price was put up and offered to keep their interests and their empire in place. Thus was born from the Mighty Fifteenth, the Voragian Privateers.
