Ravagers

"We do not do that to each other! We're Ravagers! We have a code!" "Yeah, and that code is steal from everybody."

- Yondu Udonta and Peter Quill

The Ravagers are an interstellar group of thieves, smugglers and pirates. They were notable across the galaxy for their crimes and red uniforms.

History
The Ravagers were led by Yondu Udonta and were affiliated with Ego the Living Planet, who was Peter Quill's father.

Kidnapping of Peter Quill
In 1988, they abducted Peter Quill to return him to his father, but neglected to do so.

Hunting Down Star-Lord
In 2014, Quill, who now went by the alias of "Star-Lord", went to Morag and stole an Orb that the Ravagers were hired to receive for a third party, double-crossing the other Ravagers to sell the Orb himself.

A Questionable Partnership
On Knowhere, the Ravagers eventually found Quill, and he turned himself in to them. Quill negotiated a deal with Yondu to hand over the Orb in exchange for help to stop a Kree terrorist called Ronan the Accuser from using the Orb to destroy Xandar.

Battle of Xandar
On Xandar, numerous M-ships went to fight Ronan's forces, and Yondu was shot down. Quill and his team, known as the Guardians of the Galaxy, managed to win the fight against Ronan while many of the Ravagers were preoccupied with Ronan's forces.

Escaping Xandar
Afterwards, Quill pretended to give Yondu the orb, but secretly swapped it with a. The Ravagers later discussed that it was a good thing they did not give Quill to his father as they were ordered.
