Early on in the agent storyline, you impersonate a notorious pirate known as the Red Blade, under the impression that nobody on Hutta knows the Red Blade, what he looks like, or really anything about him. Of course, this doesn't really work out; you do run into someone who tries to shake you down, and before you leave Hutta, the real Red Blade shows up. He's dressed in a Lando Calrissian skiff guard disguise kind of outfit, except with some red highlights on it, but the whole point was that nobody knows what the Red Blade looks like, right? Plus, that's not even very interesting. For all of my agent playthroughs, I come up with a Red Blade disguise that I can wear while pretending to be him, which is really about half or more of Hutta.
And then, because I didn't really have anything else I wanted to do with Hutran other than mostly wear his regular black ops design, I kept the outfit. I ended up creating a few alternatives for him, an "undercover" Han Solo, which has the added Easter egg advantage of being green Han Solo, as one of the early designs for him was, and prisoner disguise while on Belsavis, a winter outfit for Hoth, a hazmat-like outfit for Quesh, etc. Very functional stuff for him.
But the Red Blade does make a reappearance of sorts on Rishi, if I remember correctly, or at least he's referenced. And if he is supposed to be some kind of space pirate, that's obviously an obvious place for him to occasionally hang out.
Sometimes people like to use the Red Blade outfit when in the Red Blade disguise, but it's a dumb looking outfit, and if nobody knows what the Red Blade looks like, then what good is it anyway? Anyway, here's one of my own takes on the Red Blade; the red scalene armor from the Gree event, but with an eyepatch as my "hat." Because, y'know. He's a pirate.

Just chatting with the boys. Y'know, like a Red Blade does. Raina is obviously bored. |

Cheap lodgings. The Red Blade doesn't travel in style yet, apparently |

I don't know why, but Raiders' Cove always seems really hazy to me. |
|
OK, so it's not the prettiest beach, but I still think this place qualifies as a honeymoon destination, right Raina? |

Whoa, sorry, guys. I didn't know this was "your" saloon. |

After a few drinks, the Red Blade likes to get down. |
