I don't know if I'll ever run a game of starfinder but if I do I am going to have a band of space pirates that are actually former insurance corporate employees terrorizing the spacelanes in their ship "The crimson permanent assurance".
The background is that the permanent assurance insurance agency developed the gimmick of having a ship built to offer assistance on site to holders of permanent assurance policies. In event a ship covered by PA suffered a disaster the Flying Permanent Assurance would be dispatched for assistance abd rescue operations. It could also ve dispatched to worlds that had suffered disaster or were threatened by danger.
Great PR, the image of the Flying Permanent Assurance coming to the rescue, right? Plus rescuing policy holders was cheaper than paying big policies.
Too bad the pricks in suits running the company treated the crew like fubgible goods.
After long years of abuse the crew staged a mutiny, seizibg tge ship and forcing the control codes out of the suits in the command suite. A few friendly technomancers helped liberate the ship.
Painting her blood red, addibg armarments and Rechristening her "the crimson permanent assurance" the former corporate wage slaves took to the spacelanes as pirares initially preying on Permanent Assurance covered vessels and later other targets.
They occasionally take lucrative offers from insurance agencies to hit targets covered by rival agencies.
Their big schtick is appraisal. They can very quickly appraise a potential target's value and defenses, a holdover from their days as insurance workers before they reformed kabd became honest Crooks.
I don't know if I'll ever do it but it's just a funny idea I had. If anyone wants to use it go ahead. If you know where I got the idea you have great taste in movies.
