At some time in the 25th or early 26th centuries, the [[Castoffs]]' ancestors had worked as pirates in the [[Outer Colonies]], preying on the [[freighter]]s and [[colony ship]]s serving the distant network of far-flung worlds. Eventually, these pirates were apprehended and ultimately marooned on the inhospitable greenhouse world [[Netherop]], despite the practice's outlawing in the [[Uniform Code of Military Justice]] and [[Planetary Penal Code]] under [[Colonial Administration Authority]] ruling. With such a cruel fate, the Castoffs' ancestors had been expected to die on Netherop stranded in the outermost limits of [[Human colonies|human space]]. However, the stranded pirates instead discovered the remnants of a [[Netherop species|long-dead civilization]] on Netherop, and were able to use the planet's remnant networks of cities and ancient technology to survive on Netherop - if not thrive. [[John-117]] estimated that those who had originally come to Netherop may have been around the mid-2470s - roughly fifty years before [[Blue Team]]'s own [[Battle of Netherop|adventure]] on the planet in [[2526]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=Oblv10|Oblv|Chapter=10}} | At some time in the 25th or early 26th centuries, the [[Castoffs]]' ancestors had worked as pirates in the [[Outer Colonies]], preying on the [[freighter]]s and [[colony ship]]s serving the distant network of far-flung worlds.

Roughly 70 annual cycles before the arrival of the [[Governors of Contrition]], a group of pirates and thieves were marooned on [[Atropos]]. As they had no knowledge of the [[Human-Covenant War]], their descendants welcomed the [[San'Shyuum]] and [[Sangheili]] of the fanatical sect to their homeworld. The humans regularly traded with the [[Governors of Contrition]] and partook in the [[Festival of Joyous Partition]] before the planet was overtaken by the [[Flood]] spread through the machinations of [[Kanto'Boreft]].{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Ascension on Atropos}} | Roughly 70 annual cycles before the arrival of the [[Governors of Contrition]], a group of pirates and thieves were marooned on [[Atropos]].
