The Nightmarket Brokers are not a mercenary group but a procurement network — approximately 45 specialists who can obtain virtually anything for anyone willing to pay. Need a specific piece of military hardware? An experimental pharmaceutical? A rare biological sample? Access to a restricted database? A meeting with someone who doesn't take meetings? The Nightmarket Brokers find it, negotiate the acquisition, and deliver it, taking a percentage for their trouble.

The Brokers are not merchants — they don't maintain inventory. They are connectors, negotiators, and problem-solvers who maintain relationships across every tier, every faction, and every market in GLMZ. Each Broker specializes in a domain: weapons, pharmaceuticals, technology, biological materials, information, services, or the rare 'general' Broker who can procure across domains. Their value lies not in what they have but in who they know and what they can arrange.

The Nightmarket — from which the Brokers take their name — is a rotating physical marketplace that appears in a different location every week, where Brokers meet clients, display samples, and negotiate deals. The market's location is communicated through encrypted channels and changes frequently enough that corporate security has never successfully raided it.
