Reasons to Hire the Tigress:
Unparalleled Efficiency: The crew of the Tigress is known for their seamless coordination and rapid response times. Whether it's navigating treacherous waters, unloading cargo, or engaging in skirmishes, they operate with precision and speed. Their ability to handle any situation with calm professionalism is a key asset in high-stakes missions.
Discretion and Loyalty: Captain Voss and her crew are fiercely loyal to their clients and have a reputation for maintaining the utmost discretion. They have successfully completed sensitive assignments that required them to transport high-value, confidential cargo without drawing any unwanted attention.
Reasons to Hesitate:
Mysterious Past: Rumors circulate in Seregon about the Tigress's past. Some say the ship and its crew were involved in privateering or even piracy before they arrived in Seregon. While these stories are unconfirmed, they do raise questions about the crew's true allegiance and the methods they might employ when under pressure.
Strict Hierarchy and Code of Conduct: The Tigress operates under a strict code enforced by Captain Voss. While this ensures discipline, it can also mean that they may refuse certain tasks or question orders if they believe them to be in conflict with their values. This unwavering adherence to their code could be a hindrance if your mission requires a more flexible or morally ambiguous approach.
