Pirates of the West
General Information
- No overall organization
- Generally have nicknames/epithets
- Have a rough pecking order based on reputation
- Generally only have three titles
- Captain – denotes a pirate who owns/runs a ship
- Admiral – denotes a pirate who owns/runs several ships
- King – denotes a pirate who owns/runs enough ships to take over a decently sized country.
- Famous pirates are often challenged by young punks looking to make names for themselves.
- There is no official code of the pirates, but there are a few rules of thumb used by smarter or more experienced pirates
- Don’t shit where you eat (if you are currently based out of somewhere, don’t attack boats going to or from that place)
- No matter how rich the loot, you have to live to spend it (if it looks like you are going to lose/die, run the heck away.)
- If you eat all the oysters, you don’t get no more pearls (stealing, looting, etc. is all well and good, but killing too many merchants attracts the Realm’s attention and causes shipping to dry up)

Pirate Legends
The stories say that when a pirate is about to die he is sometimes offered a choice. He can die and take 'is chances in the next life or he can hire on with Davy Jones and continue to loot and pillage for all eternity.
The truth of this is that, once, a long time ago, there was an ocean spirit named Davy Jones, who would save exceptional sailors from death in exchange for their worship. The really exceptional sailors would be offered a chance to work on his pleasure ship (being of course allowed to sample the delights while off duty). A deathlord heard of this, killed the spirit, and took over the name and custom, after suitably distorting it. Sailors who sign on with the current Davy Jones become Ghosts or, if he likes them, Abyssals.
