The Fish, along with their rivals the Hooks, are one of the major unofficial waterfront gangs in Altdorf.[1b]
History
The Fish had their origin in 2051, when Vlad von Carstein ravaged the Empire. Refugees from across the country spilled into Altdorf. Many settled in the Docklands, but the official Guild of Stevedores did not allow a large quantity of new workers to join. Meanwhile, as von Carstein's army neared Altdorf, smugglers brought boatloads of goods into the city, intending to sell them at inflated prices once the siege began. The Guild refused to take on such work, but there were plenty of unemployed refugees in the docklands willing to do the job. Thus the unofficial waterfront gangs, the Hooks and the Fish, were born.[1b]
The Fish got their name from their penchant for turning up with cargo that had "accidentally" been dropped overboard.[1b]
Activities
Most of the Fish are stevedores. They pay a portion of their wages to the gang, which in turn promises them a minimum amount of work. The Fish compete with the Guild of Stevedores for legitimate business, but also move cargo for smugglers and other criminals.[1b] The Fish also smuggle and fence goods themselves.[1c]
Areas of Influence
The Fish compete with the Hooks for control of Altdorf's Docklands. They also are the only gang present in the Old Docks.[1a]
