Black Dragon

Description

Black Dragons control the illegal drug market in Neocron, dealing in anything from over the counter products to black market goods. On the other hand, Tron Lombard at the Twister is sure that Black Dragon does not produce drugs themselves of such quality, because they do not have the scientists not the laboratories, but work together with another corporation. Their leader is a certain Maximillian Trond.

They also control parts of the real estate market. Some consider them just as ruthless in both areas of business. They are dangerous businessmen who do not hesitate to eliminate any competition or tenant that gets out of line.

Overview

The clan controls almost the entire illegal substance market in Neocron. Furthermore, it is very actively involved in the real estate business controlling apartments and carrying out more or less violent 'dispossessions'. It does not flinch from eliminating unwanted tenants, either. The Black Dragon clan is based in Pepper Park. Expansion into the prostitution business is planned.

It is the largest drug mafia in Neocron. Substances they provide offer a variety of effects, from simple enhancement drugs to experimental and dangerous "Dragon" type resistance drugs. The Black Dragon clan is also rumored to have a connection with Anarchy Breed as their regular customer.

Key personalities

Maximilian Trond

Distinguished businessman with style. He rules his organization like a patriarch and everyone around him knows that whatever he orders is best for the clan. It is said that Trond's enemies tend to end up in deep holes out in the wastelands, though no one has ever found any evidence to prove it.

Torben "Gecko" Manquist

Leading accountant and Trond's right hand. Trond's wish is his command. Within the clan, many believe that he will seize the throne as soon as he has an opportunity.

History

In 2680, in a seething swamp of crime, the two criminals Nico "Fury" Manecci and Jerry "Dragon" Tosca merged their small and rather unimportant organizations to become the Black Dragon Clan. Soon, Nico Manecci's incompetence made it easy for Jerry to grab control of the drug empire for himself. In 2710 the young Max Trond joined the organization and drew attention to himself with his determination and cold-bloodedness. When Jerry Tosca fell victim to an attack by a Storm-bot run amok in 2727, Maximilian Trond became his successor. In 2741 the organization profited cleverly from market turbulences following the discovery of Irata III and became the owner of entire streets and city districts. In 2750 Trond is still trying to expand into the business areas of the Tsunami Syndicate which often leads to conflict. Open war seems to be merely a question of time.
