Hi, my name is Qilapid and I am a pirate.
Actually, I am a player in the game Star Pirates. I was a fleet leader for a time and came from a pedigree of powerful fleets. Like a true pirate, I look for profit in every possible avenue, so I sold my most recent fleet, the Erisian Exiles. Newly unattached to any fleet, I bought a Dreadnought-class ship upgrade for myself, and I decided to pack up and become a wanderer among the stars.
Okay, let me back up a bit. Star Pirates is a browser-based, free-to-play game in which players take the role of pirate spaceship captains in a post-apocalyptic Solar System where the surface of Earth was rendered inhospitable by the StarCrash event. Big ol' asteroids smashed everything up and us survivors have to scrabble, steal, and kill to survive. This game plays like a browser-based MUD, but is far more interactive. Imagine a game that is fun like WoW, has a really great community of people to talk to, doesn't need fancy graphics, has great PvP, and that you can play anywhere, even on phones. Star Pirates in a nutshell. In the game, players organize into fleets in order to fight wars and enjoy mutual protection as well as share the most valuable items in the game.
I was going to be a neutral pirate. I could live a fleetless existence without trepidation, but the deluge of people inviting me to come hang with them sent me down a different path these last few days. One of the great things about the game is the people who play, and I would like to get to know them better. I am going to use the opportunity provided by my freedom to join fleets to get to know the players in them and hopefully provide an entertaining and useful catalog of the experience.
My first fleet?
I am starting at the top.
