Black Legion


Commander Harlok of the Black Skull one of the Corsairs most feared war ships once led a fleet into Eta, this is where our story begins.

The year was 814 A.S and the Corsair empire is at its peak. Battles raged in Eta over control of the system and the outcast pushed harder and harder against Etna, a Midnight class asteroid base. There was one Fleet that always stood out from the rest one group that would lay life and limb for the Empire. These men called themselves The Brotherhood of Black Skull. It wasn't until a few years after the supply runs to Etna had slowed and the Fleet had met their match. With no incoming supplies to their battleships they had to stay docked with little offense and only enough to defend their beloved base. With Etna needing a new source of income these once warriors had turn to pirates taking what was needed to survive and ravaging those who refused to support the corsair empire. Influenced by the Omega Pirates Guild this close nit group of banded brothers formed the Black Legion thus, a fierce new pirate group was born.

Originating from Etna base, the Black Legion has grew to become one of the prime Corsair factions with it's downfalls and rises. Mostly comprised of ex [OPG] members and men who lost friends and family in raids against the Outcast in Eta. The Black Legion funded itself by pirating traders in the Omegas, Sigmas, Bretonia and Rheinland. The loot from profitable raids was always a plus as well and helped boost their strength. The history of the Black Legion goes deep into the origins of the Corsair life style both old and new and continue to influence the boarder worlds.

In the late 817 A.S. Sparta, the Leader of the Omega Pirates Guild, went missing with rumors stating he's being held in the Liberty by the authorities. Thus the fall of the [OPG] began once the most respected pirates in Sirius. However, as of 817 A.S. the Sparta's madness and departure, and subsequent power vacuum left the Omega Pirates Guild fragmented and incoherent. In late 817, the ranking Omega Pirates Guild warlords officially announced the guild's disbandment, and most of it's members went independent or joined other Corsair subgroups. With no one to led them into victory these men and women were lost to the fast water holes on distant stations.


But in 821 A.S. Cadiz and Etna Base crowd saw the numbers of familiar ships returning to it's docks with many lost pirates wanting to reclaim the Empires name. Formidably, the Black Legion are some of the most feared pirates in Sirius. Brutal and effective tactics made the Legion feared among most traders and rival factions.

Now in the present time we can see these grim pirates rising once again as a group of bandits with no respect for the law. Some might ask if we are awaiting the return of, Sparta, and if this is a sign the Omegas will thrive again with the activity is had held before. These brothers stand by each other when most said it was impossible and strive to bring back the once respected and feared name of the of the Corsair Empire!

Lets make this clear, any who are strong willed and determined to take back what is theirs and make something of yourself you are more than welcome to help aid us in our efforts.

Our Goal will be to reclaim the Corsair Empire, protect the Corsair people, and defeat all those who stand in our way! While pirating those who seek to profit we shall share our riches with Crete and once again prosper. did we say pirate, pirate, pirate!
