| − | The Rogues are a product of over two centuries of systematic lower-class cleansing that occurred on the liberty planets of [[Manhattan]], [[Denver]] and [[Planet Los Angeles|Los Angeles]]. Relocated to the [[Texas]] prison system, many of them end up planetside on [[Planet Houston|Houston]] upon release. Some stayed straight and joined the population scratching out a living. The rest returned to their life of crime, often ending up vaporized by a pursuing Liberty police patrol, or back in prison for longer streches, manning the prison factories that are the economic lifeblood of the [[Texas]] system.

| − | Some say the massive LPI roundups of even minor offenders in liberty have more to do with staffing these plants cheaply than reducing crime. Fresh out of the incubator of the [[Texas]] prison system they have limited choices. Either they work in the factories of [[Planet Houston|Houston]] for a pittance, join the [[Bounty Hunters Guild]] and hunt down their former brethren, go radical and hook up with the [[Xenos]], or rejoin their former partners in crime. The latter path is the obvious one for most. Simply put, these are not-too-quick opportunists, people willing to do whatever it takes to make a buck and get by until tomorrow. Usually they end up taking the fall for anything illegal that occurs in Liberty, whether they were involved or not.

| − | The Rogues are generally a disorganized lot. They are responsible for most of the [[Trade Lane]] attacks in Liberty space and the adjacent independent worlds, usually operating in groups of only two or three ships, without much grasp of advanced tactics. They also provide shelter for the [[Outcasts]] in exchange for [[Cardamine]]. Recently they have become the smugglers for much of the Cardamine in Liberty space, supplementing or even replacing the [[Outcasts]] on certain high-risk routes. This has made them accomplices to the most persecuted criminal group in liberty space. They admire the [[Outcasts]], wishing they could be as smart and careful as the Edge World faction. But they regard the LPI as their ultimate masters, perhaps aware that soon they will probably be under the LPI's thumb once again.

| − | The current Rogue set up has created two wings of the Liberty Rogues. One remains, as always, simple pirates, thugs and ne'er do wells. Where as the other is almost a political propaganda wing, making loud proclamations and generally making a nuisance of themselves over system communications, in this they are about as effective as the regular Rogues are at piracy.

| − |
| |
| − | The Rogues are led by a Crime Boss, the current incumbent of which prefers to cloak himself in shadow and only refers to himself as Sylpheed. Day to day activities are overseen by an Underboss of each wing, Felix Valdar for the regular Rogues and Roger Havana for the political wing.
