1) Faction name and tag.
The Corsair Benitez family. Members have the following format to their names;
Corsair-??????_Benitez
Capital ships, and shared accounts begin with "Benitez-"
Ships with names containing "Benitez" but which do not follow the above format may belong to members of the familia, but are not the responsibility of the Benitez organisation.
2) Brief faction description.
Quote:The Benitez are a Corsair faction that plays a significant role in the politics, defence and management of the Corsair nation. An adoptive crime-family, the Benitez are ruled by a "Don" normally descended from the original Benitez bloodline. Often concerned with special operations, smuggling, espionage and diplomacy, the Benitez have a smaller but no less significant role in the defence of Corsair territory and front-line warfare.
The Benitez are an ancient family that came to Sirius on the lost sleeper ship Hispania. Our goal is advancement the Corsair Civilisation, and to expand Corsair territory across Sirius. Our remit is piracy, and we tax the Omega systems. We are an integral part of the Gamma defence force, devoting our lives to the defence of our homeworld. We are an unlawful pirate clan, but for the most part we remain in the Edgeworlds. Our diplomatic relations reflect the reputation of the Corsairs with other NPC factions.
We poured private funding into the Tripoli project, to construct Battleships based on tech "borrowed" from our friends the Order, and are often the first to benefit from new Corsair innovations and technologies.
3) Complete list of faction members with ranks (if the faction has ranks).

Before you can become a Benitez you need to apply for adoption with the family on our private boards. Shiprestrictions are fairly easy, at the start you'll only be allowed to fly fighters.
