The Bounty Hunter's Codex

In a galaxy full of scum, scoundrels and villainy. For the industrious mercenary without morals, there’s a thousand ways to make a fortune. War profiteering, piracy, security, all respectable means of earning a living, but all are incomparable to glamour and danger of the Hunter’s call. Forged by a unity of the great heroes and villains of the frontier, the Bounty Hunter’s Guild is an ancient organization dating back to the foundation of the interplanetary council. At first existing to provide justice to the lawless stretches of space, it has survived countless unifications, peace treaties and galactic wars and persists into the modern era as an ugly reminder of the pettiness of sentience and the failings of governing bodies. It fills the gaps between order, a force capable of pursuing targets to the outer rim, through active war zones or anywhere conventional law enforcement is incapable of acting. Regardless of circumstance, justice takes its own form. 

Of course, none of this actually matters to a hunter. Their prize has always been the same. Fame and fortune, which the guild provides in droves. 

This is a system-neutral science fiction add-on providing rules for playing as a bounty hunter. Pursue targets across the galaxy, acquire points on your license, purchase exclusive Hunter weapons, armaments and ship upgrades, deal with purveyors, patrons and the High Tribunal and operate by the Hunter's code.
