Brotherhood of the Black Flag

Background

The scion of a wealthy family, Drake was taking the traditional post-graduation intersellar tour with some of his peers, when an argument with a rival ended in tragedy. Everyone knew Drake hated the guy he had accidentally killed, and since the victim's family was as wealthy and powerful as his own, Drake feared he would be convicted of murder and would spend the next twenty years of his life in prison. When his ship was raided by pirates, he jumped at the chance for freedom.
