Corsairs, who are they?

[kuth]

Ask yourself a different question guys.

Would Corsairs and Outcasts become houses if they didn't land where they landed?

I think the answer is obvious there.
Perhaps its something non Mediteranian people won't comprehend but I see entire Hispania filled with passionate people.
Just like they can be united in dance and song, they can be united in hatred as well. That's why you have OC - Corsairs war, and that's why you have Corsairs as an aggressive house in my opinion.

Their lack of food / habitable planets is what forced them to reroute all their energy into fighting and smuggling. United in their hate for others, who have but do not want to provide, they waged war against their neighbours.

For me, Corsair can be a pirate, ofcourse. He just needs to equip that pirate ID then. Corsair ID represents something much much better, or much much worse, depends on what side of the gun are you.

Problem is Ivan, they didn't land else where. They landed on Crete and as such had to resort to pirating and smuggling to survive. To the Corsairs these aren't crimes because they do it to survive. To the victims it is.

A Corsair can be a pirate with the Corsair ID, regardless of your opinion. I'd also remind you that forcing your view of Corsair RP on others is out right wrong and makes you seem like an arse for it.

I view the Corsairs as an underdeveloped mini-House that does what it needs to to survive. I do not view their activities as criminal, but I play a Zoner that makes routine food runs to them and lived in the edge worlds for awhile so he know how life is out there.
