Fiction:Andromeda Confederacy of Pirates

When the Andromedan Grox began their genocidal campaign, the pirate lords of the galaxy found themselves under a great new threat- the Grox were too powerful to attack, too advanced to hide from and too advanced to flee from. They cried out for help from their allies, friends and rivals, but none would risk their precious few ships to help another who was likely to stab them in the back.

That was until one alien brought the great Pirate Kings under his banner. Admiral Kaios united the many great Pirate fleets of the galaxy into one single organisation, held together by ties of loyalty and trust. The Galactic Pirate Confederacy was born.
