Red Water Starfleet

The Red Water Starfleet was an organization of pirates and privateers led by Tsunada Harkonen. The Starfleet would oftentimes privateer for the Rebel Alliance.

History
The Red Water Starfleet was organized by Tsunada Harkonen following her move for a name for herself, independent from that of her mentor. The Starfleet initially consisted of one small ship, a DP20 frigate stylized as the Bloody Water, and quickly grew to be a small fleet in its own right.

Following the rescue of a Mon Calamari diplomat from an Imperial attack group, Harkonen was gifted a new ship of Calamari manufacture. Harkonen would dub the ship the Faite, and she would transfer her flag to the new warship.

Harkonen and her fleet would become infamous for their incredibly well-organized attacks on Imperial convoys. Her personnel roster grew to well over a hundred thousand beings of all walks of life, and the ranks of her Starfleet swelled with crewmen and soldiers. Harkonen would follow the example of paramilitary organizations and created a regimented command structure. The organization would attract former soldiers with the new structure, greatly increasing the military prowess of Harkonen's fleet.

The boldness of her Starfleet's attacks on Imperial convoys greatly increased with the arrival of Phiht Piroc. Recognizing his strategic talents and martial prowess, Harkonen gave Piroc near-total control over Red Water's commando teams and ground forces. Piroc took the title of Warlord and would often lead from the front, many times leading boarding parties personally.

Following Piroc's abrupt departure from the Starfleet's command structure, the organization was nearly crippled by infighting between Harkonen's top commanders to fill the void left by Piroc's vacancy. The Empire also retaliated several times, crippling several of Harkonen's warships. It was a dark time for Red Water, but the fleet found help in the fledgling Rebel Alliance. The Starfleet began to privateer in order to support the up-and-coming Rebellion, earning the respect of Mon Mothma and other high-ranking Rebels. While the Rebel Alliance wouldn't be official for some time, the actions of Harkonen and other privateers helped the Rebellion quickly expand.

Organization
Red Water was headed by Tsunada Harkonen. She was well-respected by those under her command, and generally liked by her crew and soldiers. Despite this, she is a totalitarian ruler that doesn't tolerate lack of discipline amongst her men and women. As the overall leader of the organization, Harkonen has total control over all vessels and units under her organization's flag.

While Harkonen is the overseer of the entirety of the organization, she has several advisors and officers that assist her in commanding the organization. Her primary officer is the Warlord. The Warlord oversees all military operations, and is comparable to the Military Executor of the Galactic Empire in range of duties. Her other officers include her First Mate, responsible for overseeing the crew of the Faite, as well as the captains of other vessels within the fleet. There are also several officers in charge of Army-style operations, although they are not as prominent within the Navy-stylized Starfleet.
