So are you guys from a particular war against a particular foe? Survivors/family of Kentaries Massacre victems? Wolf's Dragoons who got parted from the fold on Misery? Do you come from an event or series of events, or are you just Mal-contents (hehe) in general?

Me, I'm just where I washed up. Used to be one of the "good guys", an offcier, a commander. Led a platoon in the 320th, commanded a company in the 58th. Put more holes in more colors a coats than i care to try and count. But my integrity and honor got the best of me and not knowin when to back off I got washed and dumped with nuttin but my scars, a ride and an old brown trophy coat to keep me warm. So grabbin a sip while lookin for some new pay and maybe a cause, or at least some targets. Got any Tancredi Dark behind the bar?

Me, I've been around a bit. Grew up the son and grandson of Skye Rangers, did some time myself with the Bairns... got out when they started integrating the services between the Lyran Commonwealth and the Federated Suns. Formed Danny's Boys with a few like-minded souls, our severance pay and a big loan from Granda Daniel; we did scout operations, and did them well, until we got handed our tin-plated ***** on a 'quiet' guard contract. Pirates captured m' lancemates and blew away their escape pods w' massed laser fire. I managed to escape, although my Locust got trashed. We'd done well enough that I had a backup 'mech, once I picked it up from the factory that was refitting it... and I sort of drifted until I wound up here.

There's lots of people in the universe. Lots of 'em find their way, pilot a 'Mech, work, raise a family. And then there's us, all of those people who just drifted 'cross the 'verse until they found the ol' Dropship Serenity. Sure, lots of us come from... colourful backgrounds, but we're all equals in the Browncoats.

Aye. I'm glad to have found this bunch; got me interested in makin' a difference again.

Far as I know we come from the seven corners of the verse. Some are on the lamb, others orphaned or exiled. And just a couple are plain ol' lost. But regardless of where you're from (or why), you're welcome here. The one solid string I can see is this; to a man, we don't take we'll to piracy.

Ya got that one right... any pirate I see's a dead man.

Looks like i've found the hard edge of chivalry. A little Robin Hood, with the poor being helped being the merry band of mercs that band together in anticipation of a payday. We battle hard and play harder...

Hard need not mean heartless, after all. Someone needs to look out for them what's down on their luck.

I'm proud to stand beside you fellas. I grew up on a mining asteroid an learned my way into a tunneler. Pirates fell on us looking for Lostech we didn't have. The fighting lasted only a few moments before habitats were bleeding atmo and the reactors were melting down.
A long ride in an escape pod waiting for the local rescue and a short jump later, I stood on the dusty soil of Antallos with a mission and damn little else.
Now I'm a Browncoat with half an army at my back. All those under the Jolly Rodger batter run when they see us coming.

Good read.

I will have to bring my Geisha girls in for a drink sometime

[lonewolfsyndrome]

For those of you who don't know I live in Colorado, The springs to be specific. We recently had a huge fire (Google Waldo Canyon Fire) and sadly I was one of many who lost my home. I don't know what my status will be over the next few months. I'm turning over site admin to any one who wants it, just send me a PM and I'll give you the information.

[SomaticMutilation]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[walkingraven]

Alrighty then gents, I may have to put a bullet in a fella.
Someone fixed the primary bay door. And by "fixed" I mean "Mutilate Further". The gorram door is now not just closed, but wedged closed. Looks like it was grabbed by a mech, lifted up, and some poor idjit tried to weld it shut with a low energy laser before just slamming it into place.
I'm all for practical jokes, but having just rigged the lift so folk can use the docking hatch... I am an mite unamused. Who's responsible?

Are we sure the whole door affair isn't those buggers from across the scrapheap? I wouldn't put it past 'em...

[lonewolfsyndrome]

"Ok, I got some gumbo going in the kitchen along with some jambalaya. Help yourselves." Looks around the bar and notices its mostly empty except for Pyro, Tizzer, Digit, Digigod, and Raven. "Seems I might have made too much for just the couple of us around. Anyone know where everyone got offs too?"

I move back behind the bar and get myself a pint of red ale Looking up to see if anyone needs anything.

[AlarmedBread]

Well, looks like this is the place.
