NA2

The Non-Aligned Armies is a catch-all term for mercenary companies, tactical service providers and bounty hunters. They're motives range from the pursuit of personal glory to petty bloodlust to the call of riches. Sectorial armies are employed by nations, corporations or underworld organizations alike, and are as disposable as they pride themselves in being efficient.

## Sectorials

**Druze Bayram Security**

The Druze Society is probably Submondo’s most powerful criminal organization, an international mafia association that extends throughout the Human Sphere. The Druze Society’s interests and businesses cover numerous sectors, and its influence reaches even the highest circles. But to be able to maintain a position of power within the criminal world, aside from money and influence, you also need fangs and claws.

In the Druze’s case, the sharpest ones are those of Bayram’s security service on their private caravansary. Comprised of hard-core Shock Teams paired with a dreadful reputation, this security service is so effective that very few dare engage it. For this reason, Druze operations and this caravansary are the safest in the Sphere. To maintain that maximum level of efficiency, the Druze offer one section of their security service to the military company market. This team operates as a small mercenary company that works as riot control. Bayram Security’s fee is not cheap, but their deadly results leave no room to negotiate.

**Japanese Secessionist Army**

There was a moment when the proud Japanese, who had been humiliated and treated like second class citizens by the StateEmpire for far too long, rose up against their oppressors and claimed their freedom. The Japanese Uprising was a brief but terribly intense and savage conflict for which the Japanese paid a high price in blood for their victory, but finally managed to tear away from Yu Jing. After the Uprising, the Japanese Secessionist Army, or JSA, has been reformulated based on the figure of the servo-powered samurais, as natural leaders both in spirit and in combat. However, the JSA maintains its nature of being primarily an assault force, because the Bushido doctrine requires no less.

**Ikari Company**

The Ikari Company is the most despicable mercenary company in the entire Human Sphere. The reputation of this mainly Japanese group of mercenaries is based on a record of contemptible actions committed in the name of others, either unscrupulous corporations or criminal organizations. Forget about honor and the samurai way; the ideology of the Ikari is that of the ronin, the warrior without lord or honor, who is interested only in money. But not only Japanese make up this company. Here you will find the worst scum of the Human Sphere. The questions the Ikari ask of their members are few—the only thing they want to know about their past is if they are heartless enough to accomplish the jobs the company accepts.

**Starco. Free Company of the Star**

The Free Company of the Star, or StarCo to abbreviate, conceived as an external financial resource of the Corregidor Jurisdictional Command, is proud of the professionalism of its members. Only a few in the mercenary market can compete against this company in terms of effectiveness and precision. However, the feature for which it is really appreciated is the value of their word, because even if things go off the rails, the StarCo always keeps it.

**Spiral Corps**

Spiral Corps is a mixed mercenary company with a core of experts and professional troops from the Tohaa Trident as well as a contingent of human mercenaries offering their experience as alien hunters.

**Foreign Company**

From the darkest corners of the Human Sphere to the HexaDome, and then back to the battlefields of the Human Sphere. That is the tour of the SoF Team members, the well-paid Soldiers of Fortune Team, a group of elite mercenaries who succeeded in the Aristeia! arena by the hand of the great strategist - Hannibal. Nowadays, they still can be hired as mercenaries, but of course, they are only available to those able to afford their high fees.

**Dahshat Company**

The Dahshat Company is the security branch of a much larger business conglomerate owned by a Silk tycoon, who got started low in an organized crime syndicate, later acquiring a private island (under the promise of ecological preservation) to turn into a pleasure playground. They’re headquartered on what is ostensibly space Las Vegas, a city called Zumurroda, on Bourak. Pulling assets from Haqqislam troops, as well as Yu Jing mercenaries (though they are of a Muslim minority, sometimes used as intermediaries between Yu Jing and Haqqislam), as well as a smattering of bounty hunters and other space mercenaries, the Dahshat Company feels the most “Mercenary” of the various NA2 factions, even more so than the Ikari Company.

**White Company**
