Hammers Slammers (HS), alternatively spelled as Hammer's Slammers, was a long-lived mercenary unit founded in early Year 3 by the illustrious Colonel Ralois Hammer and his second-in-command Major Ulic Quel-Droma. The organization would gain renown as the nexus for many later famous characters such as Derek Shado, an Eidolan pirate, and Xya Howie, a future ruler of Black Sun. After existing for three years, Hammers Slammers was acquired by the Tenloss Syndicate and reinvented as Relekin Confidential.
