Anga-Kaska Woolfe

The founder and proprietor of Woolfe Weapon Works, the sought after outfitter of pirate junks. Woolfe Weapon Works was located deep in an asteroid field in the pirate badlands of Vondell's Gap, way up in the high-500's. No pirate was allowed to know its location, and if you wanted your ship refitted you surrendered it for collection, then waited, for as long as it took, and took what you got when you got it back.

Anga-Kaska Woolfe was a polymath, gifted in engineering, weapons development, physics, propulsion, industrial design, communications, computers, navigation systems, military tactics and survival politics. He could have risen to the top of any of these fields, but was also a fierce anti-establishment obsessive with a taste for wealth, challenge, and creative destruction.

Where he was born, nobody knows; parentage, likewise. Anga-Kaska Woolfe simply seemed to have always been Anga-Kaska Woolfe.

After Woolfe Weapon Works was raided and destroyed by PPB Captain Miranda Jowett and her "Project Snipe" task force, Woolfe was kept prisoner aboard Captain Jowett's ship, the Pallas-class frigate Savatara, and forced to design and restructure her, so as to better deploy the experimental missile system she had been given the task of testing.

Over the course of the year that he was in captivity he formed a sexual relationship with the Savatara's first officer, Rosario Rawlins, in turn securing himself a nicer cell, and better food and conditions for his team.

After gutting the entire ship and turning the central elevator system into the barrel of a hyper-optic cannon Woolfe and his team were due to be executed via the airlock once the modifications were satisfactorily completed. Before he could be eliminated he effected his escape aboard a lifeboat in the confusion of the final battle of the Savatara's service.

Show/Hide Spoilers During the attempt to capture the Black Fleet training vessel "Black Wreath" the Savatara was successfully boarded and captured by the Black Fleet blue-gun squad, Team Onyx, led by Staff Major Jaglan and accompanied by Malcolm Wrath. Having disabled the lifeboat's distress beacon, Woolfe was able to drift among the wreckage of the Savatara's sister vessel, "Sonya" which had been destroyed during the battle for the Black Wreath. Staying undetected while the mobile dry-dock vessel Black Chasm collected the Black Wreath and the Savatara, Woolfe was able to reconfigure the distress beacon into a makeshift shunt-communicator and contact the fence known as "Picket" aboard the pirate junk Cipheron.

The Cipheron duly rescued Woolfe and his team. Owed a huge debt, Woolfe agreed to help the Cipheron's captain, "Nemo" procure and upgrade a new vessel to replace the crippled and useless Cipheron.
