Biography
The Novo character was born in mid-March 2006. He started out as an alt created for the specific purpose of defeating Go With The Flow, a flag which he helped found, in an attempt to shift the balance of power on Sage. At the time of Novo's creation, no flag without the backing of the Go With the Flow alliance web had ever won a single blockade round on Sage. In order to accomplish this goal, he created the crew Ascendo Tuum and shortly after founded the flag Quixotic Tangent with the help of several other prominent Sage pirates. Although he had previous characters that were semi-established, Novo was the first one to become heavily involved in politics and forum posting, and eventually far surpassed any previous characters in fame, shedding the alt status.
After leading Quixotic Tangent to become the first flag to defeat a member of the Go With The Flow alliance web at Caravanserai'2, Novo accomplished his major goal and decided to take a few months citing burnout. Upon his return, Novo was a Senior Officer in [Orestes] by result of merger where he met [Beebe], and decided to join her and [Shodan], among others, in an attempt to found a new blockade-oriented flag in the form of [Passive Aggression]. He quickly rose through the ranks of Passive Aggression achieving the rank of Prince, and eventually acquired captaincy of Orestes as well. Novo has been heavily involved in all of Passive Aggression's blockade exploits, with the most prominent being the first flag on Sage to hold 5 islands at the same time, including winning 4 blockades simultaneously with an overall round score of 12-1.
On Sage, Novo is mostly known for his puzzling, forum posting and blockade involvement. He is a strong puzzler that consistently maintains an ocean wide top 10 in every piracy puzzle except for rumble. As a reflection of this, he has had multiple high bake-off finishes, taking 2nd place in sailing, 3rd and 4th places in carpentry, and 1st place in bilge. Novo has also been involved in the organizational aspect of nearly every major Sage blockade in some way, shape or form while he's been active since last March, including many on other oceans. Globally, Novo gained notoriety for being the first to publically reveal the every other turn LSM trick along with an accompanying BNav guide (now defunct), and for his dual screen recorded swordfight videos.
