Redspace Cloning was developed in secret by Interdyne. Redspace Cloning, due to its cheap nature, resulted in cloned individuals having genetic deformities that gave enhanced combat and quick reflexes while genetically damaging the user's frontal lobes, particularly the area known as "Broca's Area". Its quirks had not been fully ironed out before Gorlex partnered with Interdyne. After 6 months of the partnership and Gorlex fulfilling its contractual obligations, over 80% of Its workforce had been cloned.

Due to their close connections to Cybersun Industries, and their own reservations with Nanotrasen's expansion into the private military space, Gorlex became a founding member of the Syndicate. They now form the sword of the coalition, accepting a hefty paycheck from the Syndicate's collective funding for the trouble. The Marauders are an elite force trained and employed by Gorlex, and cause a lot of trouble for Nanotrasen via coordinated strikes on their stations. The deadliest of the Gorlex operatives are the elite of the elite: The Nuclear Operatives, named for their main method of attack: Nuclear Warfare.

While they are an elite force, the Marauders are often poorly disciplined, which has led to Cybersun embedding officers into Gorlex strike teams to maintain discipline within the ranks and keep them on target. This has created an osmosis of ideas throughout the Syndicate, and many motifs originally associated with the Gorlex Marauders have become commonly associated with the entire organisation. This includes, but is not limited to, their blood-red colour scheme, their iconic snake logo (adapted for syndicate use), and, in many ways, their ruthlessness. This has flowed both ways, and the Marauders have learned some new tricks from their allies, like sourcing newer, more powerful weaponry from {IN PROGRESS} or adopting the combat stimulants used by the Tyger Cooperative.
