Who is who

Cmdr.Svengali was born at a practically forgotten world at the outer rim of Galaxy 3 and absolved his flight training in a pimped Adder, build of spare parts and combined with more tape than anything else. After a few restless years he settled with a standard Cobra, cruising the eight.

GalCop has an eye on him, but it seems that his usual business of trading in narcotics and slaves and occasional acts of piracy are not enough to get him on the list of the most wanted fugitives. All in all a lightminded and rotten soul.

From the last interrogation protocoll, Soamaxe.

O: 'You say you didn't know about the legality of trading in Dephrac Crystals?'
S: 'No, Sir. And how should I? These crystals were available, so I bought them. Nobody asked me for a license.'
O: 'These crystals are highly unstable and are a controlled good for hundreds of decades. Everybody knows it.'
S: 'Not me, Sir. And I also don't know that this chip is 1000 Credits worth...'
_End of protocoll

He's known to be friendly to cats though .-)

The only thing Cmdr.Svengali is really worried about, it seems, is the growing number of clashes and cheats out there.
