The Rust Wolves are a rowdy bunch. They show little regard or concern for the legality of their operations, preferring the tangible benefits of Credits and influence, rather than adhering to any particular code of ethics. That being said, they are one of the most internally loyal gangs operating in the Drained Sump Seas to date.
Part fraternity, part militia, this group of rugged individuals found that their perchance for revelry made them well suited to organizing fighting rings in the Underhive. Sponsoring such events such as "Corpse Grinder Kyle versus Killer Karen," the Rust Wolves have made a tidy sum of Credits by attracting large crowds to the Blood Pits that house these bloodbaths. This was further supplemented by organizing gambling rackets built around betting on the combatants.
Recently, this particular enterprise brought them into conflict with the Nasty Girls Club of House Escher, who were operating their own gambling ring based upon dice and card casinos. The Club accused the Rust Wolves of infringing upon their own realm of influence, to which the Rust Wolves responded with indifference at best, mockery at worst.
A short conflict erupted, after which saw sharply decreased gambling activity by the Rust Wolves. With the decrease in revenue generated by the events, there are rumors that the Wolves themselves are participating in the underground fights, as they are unable to provide enough sponsorship to attract more infamous champions of the Pits. There are also rumors that a new Escher girl is has replaced the previous Mop Girl in cleaning up the blood spilled in the Blood Pits (which many speculate is a pointless exercise).
More rumors speculate that the Rust Wolves are uncharacteristically melancholic as of late, not because of a perceived loss in the conflict with the Eschers, but because they have found something in the Underhives that was believed to be lost... something that has given them pause in their recklessness. The most wild of rumors speculate that it is a wise man who is now advising the Wolves, telling portents of the future. Whatever it is, the wild nature of the fraternity has diminished, and they are more focused on their goals than ever.
Only time will tell if the continued aggression of the Rust Wolves will be their downfall. As more House-sponsored gangs are provoked to violence, it may only be a matter of time before these Wolves discover they have bitten off more than they can chew. With the rumors surrounding them, it is anybody's guess as to what is motivating their efforts...
