The Apostatas is a progressive faction that wants to modernize the Corsairs. This includes but is not limited to gaining knowledge, development and social growth. They believe this can only be done by breaking away from a criminal life and gaining support from Lawful and Quasilawful Organizations. Apostatas believe themselves to be more civilized and better composed than their Corsairs counterparts.
Pilot carrying this ID is a member of the Corsairs, who:
-Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect an allied or friendly ship anywhere
-Can attack any ship which belong to a house or organisation considered hostile by Apostatas within their Zone of Influence.
-Can treat ships carrying Artifacts, Xeno Relics, Slaves and Cardamine as combat targets.
-Cannot take any ship larger than a Gunboat into non-hostile house core space.
-Cannot participate in unlawful actions except as described above.
-Zone of Influence: Kusari, Omegas, Sigmas, Omicrons, Munich, Frankfurt
With Crete’s ever growing power, major families that were once powerful and glorious crumbled while others rose to the seat of power. There were those who sought out more power to expand the Corsair Empire and relieve it from its food shortage. Such were the Castille and Cordoba, two major families who took the first step into creating a single banner to unite the Corsair families and a council comprised of each family head that wished to join, they were called the Apostatas.
Rumors of the Apostatas spread like wildfire on Crete and several minor families that sought fame and wealth offered their help. Their reason for forming has not been confirmed by anyone, some believe that the current Corsair state of relying largely on foreign entities to supply them with basic goods was considered outrageous by many, others say they banded together to create a powerful fleet to conquer new regions for the Empire. One thing was clear, Apostatas was paving a new way for the Corsairs.
"Planet Crete, our once beloved home"
To achieve their aspiring goals they used diplomacy, money, a powerful fleet and organized logistics. The Apostatas believe that the Corsairs are more than just simple pirates and raiders. To build a more powerful and self-sustaining Empire they had to evolve beyond the simple thinking that the Corsairs had become complacent with. With this in mind the council of Apostatas decided to find more Allies and trade partners within Sirius, as they knew having so many enemies was costing resources, man power and opportunities. But this new way of behavior and thinking was not easy, as the aggressive nature of the Corsairs had been there for generation and was showing clearly in the ranks of Apostatas.
With time, most in the Apostatas learned and adapted to the more complex way of thinking. Once this occurred the council found themself in a precarious position. They had realized that the society of the Corsairs had stagnated to a fatal point and that it would lead to a social collapse within the Empire itself. With such a frightening prospect, the Apostatas council decided to strive towards a new goal.... Modernization of the Corsairs. This new vision that the Apostatas was working towards would take time, resources and allies.
One House in particular always had favour with Apostatas. Kusari. The Kusarians were the only ones that might lean towards peace. The War with Bretonia had set the Empire and the Kusarians on the same side. But when the war ended and the Emperor exiled, the Empire was once more on unfriendly terms with the Kusari Government. The Apostatas however believes that there is a chance for proper peace to be had between the two nations.
The war with Bretonia once again put the Empire on the same side of a new stronger house. However the council of Apostatas has yet to decide on how they stand towards them. The houses within Sirius had become enemies of the Empire through centuries of war, raids and pirating. With hard work and patience, one day the houses of Sirius would recognize the Corsair Empire as a house in its own right. But until that day and opportunity would arise, the Apostatas had many enemies to deal with and resources that needed acquiring. So peace between the Empire and the other houses had to wait.
"Transport Division en-route to Bering"
With the wealth of the joining families, the Apostatas were able to acquire a sizable fleet rather quickly. Thus enabling the Apostatas to trade with allies and smuggle necessary goods and equipment back. Food for the people of Crete was always a priority and Apostatas made sure that the stores would always have food.
But the constant supply of food lead to cargo holds of food, instead of equipment and supplies. The council realized that to enable the Empire and Apostatas to grow, they had to have food grown locally. But growing food on Crete would once again add costs and supplies on Apostatas. The council now had to decide whether to push on Cambridge even more...or get allies to assist with the growth on Crete.
The leadership of Apostatas is made up of the council, which consists mostly of the more powerful families and individuals within Apostatas. They organize everything from supplies down to the very conquest of new territories, however the elder of Apostatas is the mightier form of power within, as he is the ones who will give the orders to execute any plans.
825 A.S Current day
"Antikythera Shipyard"
One main course of action revolved around the Omegas and Bretonia, due to the Gallic invasion of Bretonia and the all-out war, the neighboring house is vulnerable and the conquer of planet Cambridge that will serve as the Empire’s primary food source is not out of the question. The capture of Antikythera Shipyard in the recent past had placed the CoE and Brotherhood under pressure to maintain and supply a extra shipyard.
This was a opportunity that the Council of Apostatas took and requested administration rights from The Council of Elders. The shipyard was eventually firmly under the Apostatas which enabled them to operate less under the radar of the CoE and placed them in a position to expand their fleet. While Apostatas stood as the front line against the Coalition due to sharing Cayman with their hostile neighbors, The Apostatas wanted to grow their power despite having to fight off frequent enemies near their home.
The irregular behavior of The Apostatas was eventually revealed to the eyes of the Brotherhood Elders by foreign interlopers. As such, Apostatas Elder Alexander Cordoba is facing charges of treason against the Empire and Apostatas supporters, military and fleet exiled from corsair space. Under the new leadership of Alexander's son, Ray Cordoba, Apostatas and her people were swiftly moved to the sigma 17 system with assistance from the Hogosha for temporary refuge on Takkinai Depot.
"Operation Citizen"
Apostatas have since garnered the support of multiple organizations with a common agenda of retaking our home-system Omicron Gamma and to free our people from the wretched cycle of life that presently exists on Crete under the administration of The Brotherhood Elders. With the Apostatas civilian presently safely in Coalition space, Apostatas can begin surgical operations against the current empire and bring about a new age of modernization for the people of the Empire. To one day truly become a proud House and remove our reputation as aggressive pirates.

Feel free to take that code and use it, tweak it, or whatever you want.
I personally found your variant more appealing to the eyes and will henceforth apply it after your prior permission.
Thank you very much for the excellent tweak feedback as I'm currently working on getting a hang of this aspect.
I've been looking at your progress in the game and on the forums over the course of your existence and I'm still thoroughly under the impression that this faction doesn't make sense under Corsair ID and you would do better to focus your efforts elsewhere.
Thank you for the feedback Corile, it's always good to hear from a fellow player of the corsair player-base.
In purely my opinion, I have always envisioned the human remanent of the hispania to be of a proud stature considering them as one of the original pioneers from the sol system. That being said, I also sincerely wished to see us ( the corsair people ) in a much better state of living for our people are surround by threats on all sides atleast from Gamma's point of view. As such, pirating and other unlawful methods of living are but a slow means to an end with no concept of sustainability. Our future is at risk ( from an inrp pov )
As such, Apostatas was engineered for the sole purpose of betterment of the corsair citizens and to help construct an operational/functional economy hopefully in the near future ( give or take 4 to 5 years depending on rp ).
The beauty not only lies within our foundation but also in essence, a corsair who for the first time in history is willing to listen.
Thank you for hearing me out. Hope to see you and the Custodi in space.
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
