Backstory
The Syndicate is a highly secretive organization, and as a result, their backstory is not as clear as it could be. The Syndicate began when a group of people who felt Nanotrasen had ruined them and that action must be taken to take revenge upon them. Over time, due to Nanotrasen's "minor" mishaps, they've amassed a sizable amount of enemies.

The Syndicate's agents who infiltrate Nanotrasen's space stations are often well-armed, with a variety of powerful tools at their disposal that are far beyond much of what the space stations possess. Even worse are the syndicate's operatives, sent to use a nuclear device to blow up the station. It's possible that there are those even above the skill and technology of these operatives, but their existence is entirely unconfirmed.

Their hatred for Nanotrasen doesn't always mean they'll shoot all of them on sight, however. In the past, Nanotrasen employees have defected and joined the Syndicate, and the Syndicate has accepted them with open arms.
