Alright, so, here's the deal.
Julio.Salvada was, until yesterday, an Outcast Tagged and ID-ed Sabre.
While being in O-Alpha, I fired a missile in one of the RoS's members shield, not to start a fight, purely from boredom, maybe a mistake, on which he responded by attacking me.
3 other RoS members joined him.
After some time, one of the RoS members told everyone to stop shooting, and me (Julio Salvada) to get lost from Alpha.
I understood that as a banishment from Malta, and as an opportunity for a minor RP event of sort.
As my character is developed in a way that he is not addicted to cardamine, I had no problems in leaving Malta, or the Outcasts in all.
I even had 'fights' (with words, like, discussion) before with Outcasts about my nature and my disgust towards cardamine. But I still remained loyal to them, all until they banished me.
He told RoS to remember his name since they'll be seeing it a lot, on which they responded with some other treats etc etc.
Julio set course to Omicron Gamma trough Eta > Theta, killing all Outcasts in his way, due to his rage and disappointment.

In Gamma, he was attacked by a few Corsairs (NPC's) until he got a chance to explain himself and his reasons to be in Gamma.
One of the OPG leaders was there, and Julio offered some Outcast pilots as a sign of peaceful intentions.
Corsairs didn't trust him totally, but they'v given him a chance to prove himself, which he did, I hope.
After a few training sessions he was offered to join the OPG, since he was, by the words of OPG, a good addition to their faction.

Now, this all happened in game, there is no sign of it on board, there is no RP story to back it up.
All of this happened in a few hours, and it wasn't planned to end like that, so that's mainly the reason for the lack of any story.
I might write one, but I wanted to clear things up first, so people don't think I wrote it just to fly a Sabre or something.
I actually think that in-game RP like this is better then simply writing a story which is not backed up in game.
Of course, forum story should be there so there's no any misunderstandings.

Now, I only had one fight in that Sabre on the Corsair side, and that guy complained somewhere it seems (I think PMs).
I understand him and I appreciate for not reporting me immediately, as I wouldn't have a chance to explain my actions.
In my defense, since he said it wasn't fair, I'd like to add that I asked the Corsair GB, which was dealing a lot of damage to him, to back off.
Also, he mentioned something like "best ship + best guns + best shield busters".
I don't know what this means, but I assure you that I am NOT using any Corsair weaponry on my ship.
Ship is still armed as it was while it was an Outcast, and that's not gonna change until I change the ship.
Sabre with Tizonas/Coladas would be too much.

I can't really remember who of RoS was there, my screenshots are bugged (damn irfanview) so I have no proofs left from Alpha fight, but I'm sure they will back it up.
One of them was [RoS]Vincent.Corona (I think), and one more was [RoS]Mulian, that one I know for sure, since he was the one i shot missile at.

Anyway, I don't intend to go on PVP whoring with this ship, it will rarely even leave Gamma.
I intend to use it only against Outcasts outside of Gamma, no one else. Story will be developed in time.
I am still thinking about ditching it if and when it gets destroyed the first time, but I will consider that a bit more.

I repeat, this wasn't planned to happen, but it was more like an instant development. It was my only Outcast character, some 6 months old, so I didn't make it yesterday so I could have a Corsair sabre.
Any feedback and criticism is welcome, as I myself am not the fan of such things either, but it just happened.
Thanks for your time.

First off... Welcome to OPG.
Second...

DON'T CHANGE YOUR SHIP! At least not yet. Just because you join the Corsairs doesn't mean your ship is a POS. Maybe it is damaged but... There is an Awful good RP reason to have a Outcast ship as a corsair. I'll fly wit' you any day. Maybe just change the weps.

I was there as [RoS]Che.Esteban[W], seems fair enough.. I'd expect you to use the sabre until you are brought down in combat (training PvP doesnt count IMO)

Hope to shoot at you soon :D

Now this is Roleplay. Nicely done chopper.

I recall having a character with about the same kind of story (but his separation with outcasts is a bit diferent). Instead the TBH kept asking me to change my ship or theyd shoot me down, after what when I left someone indeed came to hunt me down...

Not sure if the admins will let you keep it though.

A couple of things. I do like this story and way to RP it to the end.

First; when your ship blows up, change it.

Second; Don't use Corsair guns, that would just be very uncool. RP it as the Corsairs not trusting you enough with their top-of-the-line tech.

Third; All Outcasts are genetically dependent on Cardimine. After hundreds of years of being immersed in it, Cardi has warped their genetic structure so that even Outcasts born off-planet are addicted. And bad things (Mon'Star) happens when you try to change that.

I like this story, but if I were you, I wouldn?t change the ship or any of the gear on it, it?ll be interesting having a Corsair fleet with Outcast stuff, hehe.

curious though, what?s your Tag and ID as of now? I?d think outcast ID and Corsair Tag, but I?m curious...

Yes I heard about your RP through some of the SOB around you being allergic to Cardimine. Well perhaps it could be a genetic anomaly or something of that sort, a severe aversions rather than addiction. hehe good luck with it all! I hope to shoot you down out of that stolen ship soon ;)

More like immune to cardamine effects, damaged DNK, but lying to everyone about it since he didn't want to be used as an experimental rat.
That's why he fakes that allergy, because they'd notice he's different if he used it. This way he's just faking he's allergic and doesn't use the stuff, so no one bothers him.
He'll keep that as a secret especially now when he's with the Corsairs, who wouldn't think twice to sacrifice him for discovering that secret.
Outcasts would just simply assassinate him.
So, yeah, no one can know.

Mwerte, don't worry, I won't mix Outcast ships and Corsair weaponry.

About changing the ship, I said I'll see how it goes. After all, we all die but continue playing our characters.
There are also many examples of people not changing ships after their destruction.
But it's very likely I'll scrap it once it's down, under the condition that the story is over.

Thanks folks. I was expectin' fire. :O

EDIT:

Swiss, right now it's Corsair ID and Corsair Tag. It was one of the conditions to be accepted by Corsairs.

oh ok, no cause since you are an outcast by birth or whatever (I think) you should maybe keep an outcast pilot in your hold or whatever and make it interesting.

For a moment I was thinking outcast ID to show you are an outcast originally or whatever, but nevermind:)
