Are you maybe a privateer?
Privateers tended to obey a sovereign government and do all the pirate things, but directed it against the enemies of the country they were under the flag of rather than just at whoever. Privateers would sometimes become pirates, though. Basically, they'd just keep doing the same job, but for themselves.
The distinction is largely one of who gets to make the rules and do the finger pointing.
I don't think so, seems like I am a part of a rag-tag group of people who are doing "jobs" to get rich. I don't think we have any formal government or organization backing.
I guess I don't know the full story of everyone I am working with yet. So there could be a twist I am unaware of.
It could also just be propaganda. They're pirates, not us!
~~Hell~~Pirates is other people?
