Rascal? Scoundrel? Villian or Knave? Tell Us Your Tale
March 19, 2009


Meet Xavier "The Henchman" Hench. He gets the job done, no matter what the task. As the first mate of Captain Walter and a proud member of the Marceline guild, Xavier is quick witted and always eager to help his crewmates.
While Xavier keeps most of his past private, he readily admits to being "born on a Pirate ship." Truth is, he's spent practically his whole life at sea, his knowledge of the ocean is more than evident when in battle or just chasing the wind. When he has free time, he enjoys anchoring a dinghy on the backside of Tortuga to fish.
What's your story?

EVENT - Founders and GMs Now Recruiting Crews
March 19, 2009


This weekend, join GMs from the Marceline Guild and Founders from all over the Caribbean in a show of force as we assemble crews to take the fight directly to the EITC!

The EITC continues to deny that they've been planning an all-out attack on the Pirates of the Caribbean. Still, EITC forces are growing and recently Pirates have noticed suspicious activity (like that seen in the days before the destruction of old Port Royal and old Tortuga) by the Company near Padres Del Fuego.

Prepare for battle mates, and good luck - you'll need it!
When: 11AM - 2PM, Saturday and Sunday, March 21-22
Where: On the beaches of Devil's Anvil (C named Oceans/servers)
NOTE: This is a role playing event. Pirates Online GMs will be in character and talking only about the event. During the event, please be respectful to your fellow pirates - DO NOT participate in disruptive behavior or USE WEAPONS unless asked to do so.
