𝕿𝔥𝔢 𝔣𝔦𝔢𝔯𝔠𝔢𝔰𝔱 𝔞𝔫𝔡 𝔪𝔬𝔰𝔱 𝔡𝔞𝔫𝔤𝔢𝔯𝔬𝔲𝔰 pirates roaming the seas have been called together for an emergency council at their den in the Faroe Islands, somewhere between The British Empire and Iceland. This far-removed meeting place is well hidden from those who would seek to blow these menaces out of the water, and only those deemed qualified by the rest of the council have access to the coordinates of the den and the means to reach this outpost. Younger pirates are constantly being hunted down by older members of the council to replace those on the council who have been taken out.

Now, the next new wave of pirates has been inducted into the council, and the self-proclaimed "Father of Privateers" has sent word that a meeting is to be held at Isla del Chubasco, or, Hurricane Island. The Faroe Islands, of course, have their own name, however the pirates have nicknamed their den island this due to the barrage of hurricanes that pass over it during storm season. This makes the Islands dangerous to navigate at certain times of the year. Council can only be held every few years within a very particular range of time. Despite the difficulties this presents the pirates with, it also keeps the den relatively safe from being discovered, as most ships try to avoid the stormier areas of the sea.

☠

Now, The "Father of Privateers" only calls council when he feels it is absolutely necessary. Why, you may ask, has he chosen to call everyone together now, after passing the last ten years without a single word?
According to the King and the British Empire, the Age of Pirates is coming to an end. They seek to destroy the remaining pirates plaguing the seas. They have even hired other pirates to take down the resisting Legends. However, The "Father" knows that their company is much larger than the British Empire thinks, and seeks to defend their dying breed as best as they possibly can- if there's one thing a pirate has, it's pride. The British Empire must be taught that the Pirate Elites will heed to no Ruler.

The Great Seas; the Domain of Pirates. Here is a guide to the watery battlefields where these menaces exercise their reign of terror. Pirates roamed many seas, but these in particular will be the focus of our adventure.

*These notorious captains have been in the business for as long as anyone can remember. They take their job with pride and a bottle of rum, and many of them have met head-to-head on the open seas, cannons ablaze, and have survived through the peak of the business. Most are reasonable when it comes to politics, which is why they are members of the council. However, the only time they tend to call upon this reason is when council is being held. Most pirates rarely look past the needs of themselves, their ships, and their crew... In that order.*

𝕭𝔦𝔬 ☸ Cahal O'Conall comes from Ireland. His Nickname, The Wolf (of the North) comes from his last name, which means 'strong wolf' in the English tongue, and the fact that his general haunt is the North Sea. His ship, Deirdre Dairmaid in Gaelic, translates roughly to 'Woman Without Envy'. Cahal chose this name to remind him not to be envious of others. He strongly encourages his crew not to be envious as well, for envy can cause great trouble among friends. Cahal has some rather odd morals for a pirate. He also has a reasonable sense of hygiene, and a strange necessity for order. He is rather obsessive compulsive about the shape of his ship and making sure everything is in its proper place. The Deirdre Dairmaid is without a doubt one of the tidiest Pirate Ships in all of the Great Seas.

Cahal comes from a small town of grain farmers in Ireland. He roams the North Sea and the area around it, rarely venturing further except out of necessity. His family at home is under the impression that he captains a respectable merchant ship across the Atlantic, and he prefers to keep it that way; It would break his poor mother's heart to find out her son was a Pirate. His sister, however, is convinced something is amiss, and longs to go on an adventure with her dear brother. Cahal knows his sister would never reveal her suspicions to their mother, though, so the matter doesn't concern him much.

Cahal has picked up much of the Pirate slang, however he still has a habit of speaking a bit more properly. His ability to use proper speech also allows him to fake his identity in places he doesn't want to get caught, and allows him to talk politics when necessary; a skill many pirates lack.

Of course, with all of this good sense comes a very contradictory side due to the fact that, as a rule, Pirates are generally a little bipolar and not quite with the sense-making. Cahal may seem like a very good-natured young man for a pirate, and he is- unless you make him angry. If you have done something to warrant being on his naughty list, you best be ready to rue the day you were born. Cahal and his crew will hunt you down, like some kind of Liam Neeson-esk machine of vengeance. The Irish Captain isn't generally one to show much mercy on those who have wronged him. Concerning smaller matters, he tends to offer a trial, but for the others, it's straight to The Locker, no questions asked.

𝕻𝔬𝔰𝔦𝔱𝔦𝔬𝔫 ☸ Stowaway
𝕭𝔦𝔬 ☸ Neavah is Cahal's younger sister. She stowed away on her brother's ship the last time he left port, leaving only a note to tell her surely concerned parents where she was. Her curiosity had gotten the best of her, and she could no longer stand being in the dark. She has yet to reveal her presence on the ship, and has yet to discover the pirate crew awaiting her above deck and in the barracks.

Neavah has acquired the name 'Little Wolf' due to the fact that their last name means 'Strong Wolf'. Seeing as her brother is 'The Wolf', calling her 'Little Wolf' only seemed fitting. Her brother Cahal, however, tends to call her Neve or Neavie instead. She likes to call him Hal in return. Neavah has a very strong sense of adventure, and has long wanted to follow her brother to sea, but he would never let her join him.

The idea of pirates has fascinated Neavah for a long while, but nobody would ever let her play pretend or any of that. She likes to think she is savvy on the pirate slang, as she has been practicing since she was a girl, but in reality she sounds slightly ridiculous. Her brother would never tell her, though, because it would hint that he knew anything about it. When they were small, he would play pirate with her as well, but now he joins the adults in putting a damper on her games. She still pretends in private though, practices sword fighting with a stick and her mirror and listing a string of pirate insults at herself. She likes to think that all sea captains are great adventures, and not simply merchants, or more terrifying, monsters.
