Any good ideas for a D&D character in a sorta, space pirate-esque campaign?

Was invited to join a campaign that's apparently going to be set in space, and I have No Idea what kind of character to create. My head caters to fun ideas for medieval fantasy, not a lot else lol. What kind of character could be in this setting? 🙈😭

It's going to be DnD 5e I'm pretty sure.

D20 Modern (with it's future supplements) would be much better for that kind of campaign. You could get some inspiration from Treasure Planet or Captain Harlock depending on how serious the kind of character you are playing. As far as 5e fighters, barbarians, and rogues would be the most common base classes I think.
