Blacksteel's Bandits

Blacksteel's Bandits was a crew that sailed the Sage Ocean that was founded on 9 August 2006.

History of Blacksteel's Bandits
Blacksteel's Bandits was founded on the 9th of August, 2006, by the crew's namesake Blacksteel. At that point Blacksteel had been an officer at various levels for over two months in the crew The Peoples Alliance, in which he had learned, mainly through trial and error, what it took to be a good officer and leader. When he formed his crew, one of the first jobbers he hired for the crew's debut pillage was Elliann, a former officer in another crew who quickly became his trusted right hand. For the next week, Blacksteel expanded his crew, and on August 16th after conferencing with Elliann, the crew opted to join Lunatic Fringe. On August 25th the crew left Lunatic Fringe to join the Flag Tequila and Salt. On August 29th, Blacksteel's old crew, The Peoples Alliance merged with Blacksteel's Bandits, greatly expanding the crew.
