Story and Gameplay
The Lawless Origin is a self-seeking group, but they are proud, skilled, and cunning. Though some may consider them to be the ‘bad’ guys in the HWS Universe, they are undeniably brilliant opportunists. They excel at liberating players from their possessions and joyfully force this fate on any and every Origin, including their own. They thrive in almost any situation, overcoming adversity by their wits and often find that their only allies are other Lawless members.
Here are some of the guiding principles, requirements, features and benefits if you choose Lawless as your Origin:
-
The Lawless Origin weapon is the Enhanced Minigun
-
Every ship is a potential payday
-
Practically no structure can withstand the combined efforts of a few experienced Lawless
-
Often, there is no honor among thieves
-
Have access to the fa:supply command
This supply package can save your life or get you out of a tight spot. The HWS Universe is not without danger, so if you find yourself stuck somewhere without supplies, use this command - but be sure there is room in your inventory first! Every Origin has access to similar versions of these survival supplies, so use fa:supply wisely. This command can be used once every 7 days.
