Hope Citadel

[Hope]

It's been several weeks now since the PTRI incident with the IMG.
With the help of local Outcasts, and some AI of her own design,
Hope was able to fix up the defense grid as well as get the entire
ship online. Although Hope disagreed with making her vessel into
a warship, she found that turrets were a necessary evil her ship
needed to survive, and that was the goal. To Survive.

Under new specifications the ship was now fully prepared for
battle. All systems were online and Hope Citadel flew under
the Outcast flag. Hope, however, did not refer to herself as
an Outcast, although she is affiliated with them and flying under the
banner of the Outcasts, she preferred to consider herself as
just an average person with no real side. Countless times
the Outcasts called upon the citadel to help in battle, and each
time they were denied her presence in war. The Citadel chose
not to enter battles where the upper hand was already in
favor of the MNS vessels currently in the systems of which
the conflicts were to take place.

Hope gained the knowledge of warfare from what she calls
her creators. All she knows is the name of them; PsiTech, as it is
tattooed onto her person. She does not like war and
because of that she chooses to only enter a conflict if the
odds are balanced. With the knowledge of war, she figures out
what weapons each ship has, what type of upgrades the
ship may contain and any other information that could
potentially alter the tides of battle.

Her enemies recognize her nobility in the ways of war, and
are glad she chose such a path. Some have even
commended her actions in battle for holding all hostile
actions on vessel that are surely about to be destroyed.
At some points, she's even told allied pilots to let the
vessel escape.

Many Outcasts disagreed with her methods, but did not
speak out. The Outcasts believe that her nobility,
and ways of letting enemies escape, will eventually
be her downfall.
