OOC: This is an IC intro post for POrt Glaxis, not SaintB. SaintB is just a modern tech nation and will not be advancing to FT in the foreseable future. Port Glaxis is a free ranging space port that serves as a haven to all types, pirates, criminals, government officials looking for a good time, bounty hunters, anybody could be found there. The station Management (whomever has the money/weaponry to take over) generally as a rule doesn't interfere with anything that happens as long as its not a dampener on business. The Port travels throughout known (and not so known) space and does pretty much whatever it wants, there are no laws, no stable government, and etc. I hope to see Port Glaxis as more of a character RP based area than a big political entity. One of the ports most infamous features is that it will build knock off versions of other people's space craft, a talent that in the past has been used to instigate intersteller wars.

Deep Space: Somwhere not so civilized

The huge metallic structure floated through the void of space aimlessly as if the occupants had not a care in the verse. This however was not true; profit was the one thing they cared about, profit in any way shape or form if it had value it was coveted by the men and women aboard the station. The station itself seemed to have no real uniform construction, it was built of scavenged and pirated materials; derilect ships, floating space junk, even other space stations were combined together around a central astroid about the size of the area known as Norway on Earth.
Carved into this rocky core was the ports main areas, its basic life support machinery, engines and several other pertenant systems were buried inside of there as well as the homes of some of the galaxies most notorious vagrants. Within these catacombs was essentially a completly self contained city of nearly 22 million people of all types complete with stores, hotels, restaraunts of various quality and even a system of roads that some enterprising induviduals ran taxi services on, competition was fierce however as the rush to get customers could end up in fistfights or worse yet, all out warfare.
