In the world of organized crime, anything expensive can quickly become a sign of wealth or status in the business. Stretch limousines, private jets, and expansive estates all make up the typical expenditure for the elite of the Syndicates investors. But in recent months, the new necessary symbol of power has become the local luxury yacht, the most popular of which is the Neptune Speedboat, an extravaganza of the finer things in life, while hiding a sinister secret. These captains of industry are far from ready for retirement.

The Neptune is a dual purpose ship built with two things in mind, the enforcement of the will of the Board of Classics, and the proliferation of creature comforts. Never has there been a ship adequately capable of both until the Neptune. Off the Dionsyus coast of Arkesia, various members of the Syndicate who have made fortunes on the various illegal trading industries cannot escape the nostalgia of the open sea.

They suffered the worst the business has to offer in the claustrophobic cabins of Siren Subs, and in the harsh open seas as a courageous Argonaut. Truth be told, a man from every monied profession within the Syndicate can be found on the owners' list of Neptune Speedboats. They seek a more relaxed occupation in the clear blue seas of the world and have spared no expense on the customization of their very own Neptune.

However the sins of these men and women of trade are far from forgotten. More than likely, as a result of their actions the owner of the ship is in hiding from people they may have wronged. So they take too the seas, not forgetting their past but looking to the future, a future in which they continue to profit from business with the Syndicate.

As a person who has enjoyed certain privileges with regard to their relation to the Syndicate, the Captains of the Neptune Speedboats are inclined to serve with a valiant determination for the cause of the bottom line. They are offered protection in exchange for the services they can offer to the corporation.

The Neptune Speedboats are armed with three Matador torpedo launchers that are used to great skill by the captain of the vessel, to sink any surface targets designated by their clients. And if the enemy finds them and gives chase the captain can release large amounts of chaff from behind their boat and speed off. Said chaff consist of a mixture of white phosphorus and metal dust that makes it near impossible to see through, and anyone dumb enough to try driving through it will see its crew coughing on the fumes, greatly slowing the ship, and letting the Neptune escape.

In time the captain the captains of such boat would gain a reputation, and more money from higher paying contractors, and would use these to "acquire" specially made warhead from special black marketeers, with the sellers only identity being that they come from some cult, and upgrades to their chaff, from the same seller.

These new warheads are full of barely sealed bio-toxins. With toxins able to instantly cause a person or animal's internal organs to fail, and penetrative tips that will automatically loose the death-causing weaponry into the hulls of ships to kill crew and damage the ship over time, said toxic now also fills their chaff compartment which releases in an aerosol form upon activating. The mere activation of these horrific weapons also trips a switch in the captain's quarters, dropping a pair of sun-blocking shades into their lap so they can ignore the effects that these torpedoes produce.
