Outcast gangs form for various reasons but usually disband when their unifying purpose ends. They are typically held together by a strong leader, who can come from diverse backgrounds such as ex-[[crime lord]]s, disgraced [[Clan House]] [[gang]]ers, or [[rogue doctor]]s. These leaders bring their personal motivations, which the gang members adopt, benefiting from the leader's connections for training and equipment.{{Fn|3}}
The primary motivator for these leaders and their gangs is the pursuit of credits. In the harsh environment of the [[underhive]], wealth is essential for survival, power, or to regain status within their original organizationsorganisations. Leaders may need funds to maintain expensive technology, support a luxurious lifestyle, or simply stay alive.{{Fn|3}}
Other motivations include pursuing lost causes, often related to former affiliations with defunct organizations organisations or [[fallen House]]s of Necromunda. These causes are expensive but offer a sense of purpose and redemption. [[Renegade lord]]s and descendants of lost Houses also form gangs to restore their family's glory, often claiming noble status and maintaining unique traditions.{{Fn|3}}
