Background The “Alcatraz Inn” is a familiar place for fellow Rogues, Lane Hackers, Outcast and Smugglers who have a few drinks and a couple of smokes with friends. It is a place for them to relax, have a laugh, and cuss the Navy.
The Inn is owned by a little family, namely by Tobias Corbin and his wife April Corbin. They met a problem with supplying their bar with booze, for they logically couldn't just buy it where its sold.
In the evening in question they met a hard shortage disaster and weren't able to give out one more drop of booze.
Tobias rang the bell of the Inn to get the attention of all the fellow Rogues and other pirates that wanted to relax with a few drinks. He informed them of a situation, asking if one of them could sell the bar some plundered alcohol. The “Alcatraz Inn” was in need of booze, fast.
Since no one had something to sell he sat himself with his old friend Dexter Flynt, Capt'n of the Rusty Nail.
They talked a little and after half an hour and no drinks they were about to solve the problem.
They formed a group of pirates, dedicated to stealing goods rather than money.
The founding members were the Corbins, Flynt and his crew, Uncle Willy, who is the current leader and a guy called Ravager. New incomers are free to meet the bar. They'll be hired to bring bottles at home, and share those with them. If they accomplish this duty, they'll be fine. If they die, we never heared about.
The background story about the leadership of the group changed numerous times during the last year, 823 A.S. When Lauren Shaw disappeared and never returned to the Depot. Though it was a loss, the group had to follow the pirate code for the matter, the man missed, is a man lost. Dexter took the leadership with his "Rusty Nail", but not for long though he felt ill and unable to work, aside of his issues related to his age. Trevor Williams, as Uncle Willy, took the rudder being the "alive proof" of a unclucky leader. Though his bad decisions and organization carried him to lead the group, correctly or not, they're working together and aiming for new adventures and, needless to say, to bring booze to the bar.
The “Alcatraz Inn” would support and help them pay for the running of their ships, getting the plundered stuff for a small prize, as well as help them get their hands on it.
Assests The Rusty Nail is not the only bigger ship in the Alcatraz Rogue Pack. They also have the one and only “The Booze Cruise” Bactrian Freighter and the “The Liberty Hauler”, a Bullmastiff Transport. These are the ladies that will bring back the goodies. They are their main pipeline for booze. If you find some on the hunt then you call these drunken pirates to come and pick up your winnings.
Over the time, our new suppliers came with big guns, with their own storyline. Uncle Willy is mostly escorting on his Cutlass or Hyena bomber, but he also supplies in numbers with his "Drunk Duty" Pirate transport. Rhys, captain of his "On the Rocks" Scylla, "Express Delivery" Pirate Transport and "Down the Hatch" Pilgrim liner, being the fastest-while-drunk man in the depot. "Demolisher" on his gunboat getting rid of everything that he's on his way, or everything he considers is on his way. Three more Scyllas in numbers, with their own brave or not-so-brave captains, one of them still to be constructed with the name of "Crallara".
More and more pirate tales are up to be told...

This group will be a simple and clean pirate group, aiming for cargo piracy of alcoholic beverages and other things a Rogue might need. If the target has nothing we want, we simply will take money.
Monetary gain is not the main intention of this, neither is it to build an "army“.
We will not hunt down the Navy regularly, but rather encounter them while at our work.
Also this is more the beginning, since we plan to build relations and more in the process rather than have them done when we start.
We will have the Liberty Rogue ID.
Also. Another Rogue faction. How many members do you have already? Not that we have another immediatly dying unofficial faction from.. sorry to say it.. newbie.
We have 6 members who are actaully experienced on this server. We are not newbies, but this is actaully a faction for fun role play. Like the good old piracy times.
Apologies. But please keep the feedback constructive.
To answer your question about why the 101st where in hostile. Is because they are unfriendly with Commune where as we are friendlies/allies, we were to place you in the unfriendly section because of this.
