Even If He Had The Support Of The Prisoners That Were Freed He Still That Maintained Authority Over Them. - Tumblr Posts

if angel was raised on pandora it means that she and jack lived as residential settlers during dahls occupation. grogmouth likely worked for the flynts who, being a high status family at the time, in turn worked for dahl. baron flynt was the warden of thor, a dahl mining rig that doubled as a prison. the companys sole interest in pandora to begin with was to extract eridium and find alien relics, so a siren would be a priceless bargaining chip for their efforts. all of this to say its very possible that the flynts were the ones who sent out the order for angel to be kidnapped.

i also doubt that the flynt family was technically a “bandit clan” at the time. more likely they were locals who had political power.
and were able to quickly fill the gap in leadership once dahl ran off. most bandit clans werent really a thing until then. there was crime.
but there was also a lot more law and a different way of doing things. baron being warden especially gave him a lot of chances to harm.
even if he had the support of the prisoners that were freed he still that maintained authority over them.
^ still obsessed with a character who died 15 years ago.
all we really know about the flynts is that their power is generational but we dont know their parents.
hell we're missing one of the 4 siblings we do have and the only named heir between them is sparky.
there is the possibility that grogmouth was working alone but ehhhh. no one ever Works Alone on pandora. theres always a boss.
always someone else. some random bastard with a few stolen turrets isnt going to have a way to contact dahls corporate overlords.
the flynts would though. and that power kept them in atlas good graces when they took over the planet. why else would steele defend them?
