Yabuta OutlawsReport
English:Yabuta Outlaws · Factions
A hostile faction that does not exist until you free Yabuta of the Sands from Tengu’s Vault — and which he never joins. Hostile to everyone at −100, and to the player no matter what you do.
The Yabuta Outlaws are a minor hostile faction with an unusual property: they do not exist at the start of the game. They are created the moment Yabuta of the Sands is released from Tengu’s Vault.
The joke the game never explains
The faction is named after him, is created by freeing him, and he is never in it. Fandom records the second half of that too: the members do not recognise the player as the one who broke him out either. You open a cell door, a bandit faction appears somewhere else on the map, and nobody involved acknowledges any of it.
What they do
Their default relation is −100 to every faction, with no special cases at all, and they are hostile to the player under all circumstances — there is no world state and no reputation that makes them neutral.
They control nothing at the start. Under certain World States they patrol Bast, Grey Desert, Heng, Sinkuun, Skimsands, The Great Desert and The Hook, and they can end up holding Fort Yabuta — which is Fort Simion renamed — and Stoat.
