Mission for Piete Donvon - ores & metals trader

Kyth Kah-Thal's contact for precious metals, Piete Donvon contacted him about a mission to find out what happened to one of his exploratory vessels, "The Lumbard 6". The ship had previously recorded a high concentration of precious metals on an asteroid deep in the verge. Soon after the core samples were analyzed and the data sent back to Piete, the ship lost contact.
Brad the gold brick and its crew head to the last known location of the asteroid. They find the ship still landed on the rock. Once inside, they are attacked by possessed crew members with glazed over eyes wielding swords made of diamonds.  They take out the crew of crazy's. Kyth Kah-Thal makes contact with something that only could be described as a diamond elemental. They talk for awhile telepathically and become friends. The creatures name is Lazerus. He agrees to let the group take the ship and a large shipment of precious metals and diamonds. He manifests a piece of himself into a fine diamond powder that shoots up the nose of one of the heads of the dead crew. The group lops off the head and puts it in glass box. This is the way that Lazerus can remain in contact with the group. The head will need to be replaced monthly though due to decay.
After getting back to the Spider hole system the group hacks this new ship they were awarded and gets it registered to them. They also unload a shit ton of metals and diamonds and bank 15 million for the group. They get to work on stripping down this new ship to prepare it as a gunship.
They also do a side mission to kidnap and torture a man by the name of Marcus Selver. They bring him aboard the "Brick" and hand him over to Doctor Heimlich. Dr. Heimlich sets up a "torture cam" for the client to watch at his leisure.

Revenge On The Brad and Co.

The party is informed that the main mining facility in Basking on planet Venon is missing all of its employees.  All of the miners have failed to report to work.  So, the group begins an investigation and learns that many of the family members of the miners have been kidnapped!  The 3rd Eye mercenary company has been hired by the mad scientist Dr. Bertinelli to kidnap and muscle the miners into quitting their duties.
The party also learns from scrapping together details and interrogating 3rd Eye members that the victims are being held on SK-21847-b, Bertinelli's asteroid science facility.
The party returns to the asteroid and bravely fights their way through armed gang members, Mutant experiments, and laser turrets within the underground facility.  At the climax of the battle, they find the kidnapped family members tied together to an IED and their blood being fed into some sort of a space vampire.  However, the party dispatches of the enemy without a single family member from being hurt in the process.
Dr. Himleich discovers a treasure trove of data concerning the creation process for making Mutants, space ghouls, and space vampires.  Dr. Bertinelli will most likely think twice about crossing the Brad Crew again.
All of the miners, secure and thankful to the crew, return to work.  Production is back to normal in the edges of the milky way, for now.
