**Black Shark Security** (**BSS**) was founded around 2010, quickly becoming one of the largest private military contractors by 2019. Based in Baltimore, Maryland, this private military company was both famous for touting the most state-of-the-art military-grade equipment and infamous for alleged "human rights violations", violations that were difficult to investigate due to the PMC not having any ties to any government.

## History

### Founding and early achievements

Troy Bolton founded Black Shark Security in 2010. Using his connections, Tory was able to exponentially expand Black Shark Security, eventually securing an abandoned military base in Fort Ritchie, Maryland. Troy initially began recruiting from the US Army, Navy and Marines, but by 2016, he was recruiting former special forces soldiers globally. By 2019, the company had conducted operations in nearly every single country, excluding the United States of America.

### Operation Patriot

In 2022, BSS came under contract from the United States Department of Defense, and contractors were deployed across the nation with orders to hunt down the mysterious perpetrator of the leak of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's draft opinion on the overturning of Roe v. Wade. However, this proved to be a big mistake, as BSS came under fire for numerous violations of the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution; PMCs were witnessed searching and seizing belongings from people's homes without a warrant and arresting any suspected supporters of the leak perpetrator without probable cause.

Their actions did not go unopposed; the National Guard formed a coalition with a Turkey-based syndicate of ex-soldiers named the Ascendancy, together with the cyber-activism group known as Vulture, and fought back; they conducted sabotage operations against BSS PMCs, hindering their attempts to violate the rights of the American people in their mission to hunt down and apprehend the leaker.

After the cyber-activist group Vulture documented evidence of these violations and exposed them to the public, the Department of Defense rescinded BSS' authority.

Troy was arrested and BSS was officially placed under investigation.

## Weapons and equipment

Due to consisting mainly of ex-military personnel, Black Shark soldiers are heavily armed, highly trained and extremely dangerous. Their choice of weaponry appears to consist of modern military-grade weapons. Thanks to the immense wealth Troy Bolton had made during the course of his career to fund his private army, BSS contractors enjoyed the most state-of-the-art weapons, equipment, body armor as well as a sizable arsenal of drone weapons. Their weapons of choice are similar to those of various armed forces worldwide.
