'''Affiliation'''
The No. Outcast splinter faction was founded in 800 AS, and it has had an illustrious past. It was the brainchild of Pedro Portillo, a gifted scientist involved in cardamine research. He was annoyed at the restrictions on research caused by the corruption in the Council of Dons, which divided efforts and prevented effective research. Portillo collected a group of like-minded scientists and the No. was formed.

*Affiliation needs a <nowiki>[[link]]</nowiki> to be most effective.

The original name of the No. was actually the Independent Cardamine Research Division (ICRD), which, under Portillo, began making significant progress in the field of modifying cardamine. However, the scientists found that in order to collect source material and vital resources, they had to venture out of the safety of Galicia Research Station. The ICRD found Omicron-81 very safe, as no enemy could penetrate multiple Outcast systems to get there. However, when venturing into neighbouring Omicron-80’s far reaches to conduct research, they found a few bounty hunters patrolling, looking to snap up random patrols. Portillo’s Sabre, named No.Rest, and the defensive Maltese Navy contingent was barely enough to repulse the attack, and Portillo returned to Galicia needing more power in order to further his research.

Portillo approached a well-known Outcast on Seguro Refugio, Guerra Diaz, and asked him for help. Guerra was more willing than Portillo had expected, and offered to join the No. as his second in command. Portillo, seeing that Guerra was an able scientist as well as a fearsome warrior, agreed. Guerra immediately set to work organising Navy aid and recommended various Outcasts to Portillo for recruitment. He renamed his Sabre No.Regret.

One such Outcast was the unlikely choice of Rodrigo Valdez. Valdez, having just spent five years in a Maltese jail for cowardice, hated the thought of cardamine, going as far as denouncing his parents for their cardamine plantation. However, Valdez did happen to be one of the best defensive destroyer commanders in the Maltese Navy, a fact proven time and time again by his successful defences of Omicron Alpha by marauding bounty hunters. Portillo approached him and, using his powers of persuasion, managed to convince Valdez that he could loosen the genetic shackles that tied the Outcast nation. Valdez agreed, and Portillo pulled strings and got him and his command into the No., whereupon Valdez renamed his destroyer to the No.Remembrance.

Portillo, on Guerra’s advice, approached one of the leading gunboat tacticians in the Maltese Navy, Miguel Perez. Guerra deemed him invaluable for offensive operations and anti fighter/anti bomber defence. He also respected Miguel as an effective fleet commander, despite having limited experience on capital ships. Miguel, who was at times frustrated with the strict discipline of the Navy, agreed immediately. He and his crew resigned their commissions, and, since Miguel’s old Tridente gunship was being decommissioned, he received a brand new, more modern one. He named it the No.Rebirth and started service immediately.
 
 
The No. grew, conducting numerous research experiments. As the ships names became more widely known, the group started to become more widely known, and eventually the ICRD title was dropped in favour of the simple No.. The small fleet grew in size, and though it was small, it was high quality due to vigorous training beforehand. Also, the modified cardamine that was produced with aid of No. fertilisers unquestionably helped the No. warriors in space. Money was always a problem, with the No. being a fairly low priority on the Council of Dons allocation of funds.

The No. Outcast splinter faction was founded in 800 AS, and it has had an illustrious past. It was the brainchild of Pedro Portillo, a gifted scientist involved in cardamine research. He was annoyed at the restrictions on research caused by the corruption in the Council of Dons, which divided efforts and prevented effective research. Portillo collected a group of like-minded scientists and the No. was formed.

The original name of the No. was actually the Independent Cardamine Research Division (ICRD), which, under Portillo, began making significant progress in the field of modifying cardamine. However, the scientists found that in order to collect source material and vital resources, they had to venture out of the safety of Galicia Research Station. The ICRD found Omicron-81 very safe, as no enemy could penetrate multiple Outcast systems to get there. However, when venturing into neighbouring Omicron-80’s far reaches to conduct research, they found a few bounty hunters patrolling, looking to snap up random patrols. Portillo’s Sabre, named No.Rest, and the defensive Maltese Navy contingent was barely enough to repulse the attack, and Portillo returned to Galicia needing more power in order to further his research.

Portillo approached a well-known Outcast on Seguro Refugio, Guerra Diaz, and asked him for help. Guerra was more willing than Portillo had expected, and offered to join the No. as his second in command. Portillo, seeing that Guerra was an able scientist as well as a fearsome warrior, agreed. Guerra immediately set to work organising Navy aid and recommended various Outcasts to Portillo for recruitment. He renamed his Sabre No.Regret.
