The Corsair Purge

The Corsair Purge was one of the most decisive and brutal actions taken by the Starborn Council to safeguard the unity of StarForged. The Corsair Brotherhood, a faction of humans who rejected the Council's centralized government, had been operating in the shadows aboard StarForged, undermining the stability of the station with their criminal activities.

When intelligence gathered by the Council’s security forces revealed the extent of the Brotherhood’s infiltration, the decision was made to launch a full-scale military crackdown. The goal was to eliminate the Corsair presence, severing their influence within StarForged and restoring order.

The purge was swift and unforgiving, with Corsair sympathizers being identified, detained, or executed. While the action was praised for protecting StarForged’s unity, it also sparked widespread resentment among some civilians who felt that the Council had overstepped its bounds. The Brotherhood’s remnants now lurk in the shadows, seeking to avenge their fallen comrades and reclaim their power.

The Corsair Purge was a dark chapter in StarForged’s history, but it solidified the Council’s resolve to maintain control at all costs.
