The cowboys, or bounty hunters, were a necessary evil instituted after the gate incident, where planetary governments were having difficulty controlling their people. Bounties are placed, either by local police, the ISSP, governments, or rich corporations or individuals, and the Cowboys do their best the collect the rewards posted for those bounties by capturing the criminals or individuals posted. The majority, if not all bounties require the target be brought in alive. No rewards are given for dead bounty heads.
Duties: Find the bounty, catch them, turn them in. Pretty easy, no?
Cowboys enjoy the most autonomy of any faction. They generally do what they like, even selecting which bounties to hunt, since no one is giving them orders. However, the life of a Cowboy can be harsh, and they don't have a guaranteed income, and they have to pay for all of their equipment, information, travel, etc.
Perks: Be your own boss, at your own risk, hombre.
