Silver Dragon Trading Co

Silver Dragon Trading Co is a crew of the Midnight Ocean. It was founded by Dragonlilly on 13 February 2004.

Early Life
Silver Dragon Trading Co is a crew on the Midnight Ocean. It was formed on February 13, 2004 from the death throes of the Puzzle Pirates Academy. The active Senior Officers of the PPA decided to form the SDTC. It quickly grew into an offense based trading crew, they weren't afraid of a little PvP or just plain brigands while dealing with the tasks of supplying shoppes for their flag, Rudder Revolution. They assisted the other trading crew in RR, the Rudder Duckies.

Splintering off of Rudder Revolution
A couple of months after RR took Guava, several crews left to form a superflag, SDTC was one of them. While working out the details of this new flag, Falcon's Fury and the SDTC formed the Forgotten Realms. At the time, SDTC crew members were in possession of some of RR's flag shoppes. The monarch of RR, Pennsuedo, agreed to let the crew have two of the shoppes in its possession, Colourful Concoctions and Baa Baa Blacksmith. It has kept these shoppes ever since, and one of its conditions of joining any flag has been that the shoppes under its control remain under its control (and do not become under the destination flag's control).

Carpe Noctem
SDTC was one of the founding crews of Carpe Noctem. It remained with Carpe Noctem during the flag's blockade of, and its simultaneous blockades of Zeta and defence of Luthien. Sometime after the blockades, the crew began to slowly go dormant.

After CN
After awhile, the crew got word that it was at risk of being removed from CN due to inactivity. It left the flag soon after, transferring to an alt flag held by Dragonlilly. Soon after, it moved back to a rather dormant Rudder Revolution, and has remained there since, enjoying the peace and quiet.
