Template:ShipIndividualInfobox The Blue Viper Club Clan Dredger is one of multiple Dredger Megaships owned and operated by the Blue Viper Club, a Dredger Clan. The Blue Viper Club is described as fiercely independent, with a reputation for drug running and raiding outposts.
This Blue Viper Club Clan Dredger arrived in Pegasi Sector PN-T c3-14 on July 2, 3307 and took up orbit near the starport Kumo City, the first known occasion one of the clan's dredgers had entered an inhabited system. Unmarked personnel shuttles were observed travelling between the vessel and the starport, setting off speculation that the Blue Viper Club had business with the Kumo Crew. Attempts to hack the vessel's data nodes were rebuffed by security protocols, but the mystery was mostly dispelled by Arch-Corsair Kay Volantyne of the Kumo Council, who launched a campaign on July 8 to mass-produce a recreational drug called Helix that was possibly a new strain of Onion Head developed or obtained by the Blue Viper Club.

The Kumo Crew syndicate is requesting deliveries to mass-produce a recreational drug named 'helix'. The drug is believed to originate with the Blue Viper Club, a nomadic clan travelling aboard an ancient dredger that recently appeared near Kumo City station. Arch-Corsair Kay Volantyne, representing the Kumo Council, provided details to local newsfeed The Pegasi Sentinel: "Helix will change lives across the galaxy! Derived from high-quality organic crops, and with many medicinal and psychological benefits, it is guaranteed to bring contentment. All we need to kick-start manufacture are deliveries of agronomic treatment, liquid oxygen and performance enhancers to Kumo City in the Pegasi Sector PN-T C3-14 system. The Kumo Council also offers generous bounties on all wanted ships to protect traders carrying these commodities." Many authorities have registered concern that this will exacerbate drug addiction and misuse, which are common social problems. However, some markets have shown interest in the potential new product. Vox Galactica has reported rumours that helix may be a previously unknown strain of onionhead, a highly popular psychedelic. It remains unknown whether the Blue Viper Club cultivated helix aboard their dredger or acquired it from another source.[1]

A Blue Viper Club dredger has entered the Pegasi Sector PN-T C3-14 system, and may have links with the Kumo Crew syndicate. The Dredger-class bulk cruiser has taken position near Kumo City, one of five starports recently constructed by pirate warlord Archon Delaine. Dredger Clans are nomadic communities that travel on the fringes of civilisation, and their ancient vessels are rarely seen. Pilots in Pegasi Sector PN-T C3-14 have been warned to keep a safe distance from the dredger. Francesca Wolfe of the Wallglass Investigations Agency published her observations: "The Blue Viper Club is a fiercely independent tribe with an unsavoury reputation. Dredger Clans typically survive by gathering materials and salvage, but these people indulge in more criminal behaviour including drug running and raiding outposts. The clan occupies more than one dredger, but these have never entered an inhabited system before now. There has been no conflict with local factions or system security. However, unmarked personnel shuttles have been witnessed travelling to and from the dredger. Are we looking at a piratical alliance between the Blue Viper Club and the Kumo Crew? Is Archon Delaine expanding his reach to the Dredger Clans? Or have they brought him something of value that they discovered in deep space?"[2]
