This is for at least the "Myths of Fenspace" page, if anyone wants to actually use them in a story, feel free.
Republic Commando Team Alpha
It started with a small group of real-life soldiers who got their hands on Karen Traviss' "Republic Commando" novels and liked what they read. Some versions of the story paint the group as American soldiers - Rangers, SEALs, Delta Force - others as mercenaries of one stripe or another or even Russian Spetsnaz commandoes. It varies a lot, depending on who tells the story.
In any case, they embraced their newfound fandom, even going so far as to create suits of Commando armor and appropriate accessories, build a prop LAAT/i, and stage little demonstrations for conventions.
Then they went to THAT con.
Today, they make their living as they can. Looting Boskonian storehouses. Rescuing people from slavers. Exfiltrating Fen from the more oppressive areas of Earth. Whatever pays well in the Fennish underground.
If you're in trouble... if no one else can help... and if you can find them... maybe you can hire
The A-Team.
