Arkos are galactic relic hunters and artifact brokers who call Haven on Rodi home. Part scholar, part smuggler, part hardened spacer, they fund daring expeditions by recovering lost treasures from derelict ships, forgotten ruins, and the bones of dead civilizations. They then sell them to the highest bidder in Haven’s shadowy markets.
Born from the necessity of surviving Rodi’s barren rock and the cutthroat streets of Haven, every Arko masters navigation through hostile space, combat, ship repair, and the delicate art of the deal. In a city built on smuggling and survival, the Arkos thrive as the premier experts at unearthing the galaxy’s most valuable secrets — especially priceless caches of natural Hot Blue and ancient technologies that power the engine of Haven’s black-market economy.
Explorers in Rodi's wastes should beware of Jumpers: ruthless claim-jumpers who prefer stealing finds from rival Arkos rather than doing the dangerous work themselves.
