===Pirate===
Description: The Pirate is a rogue and scourge of the high seas, a master of ship combat, and ruthless to those who refuse to surrender their booty. The Pirate is most suited for combat from the deck of huge sailing ships, being able to get the most out of their ship, their weapons, and their landlubber contacts. Their brutal lifestyle even gives them combat bonuses with fake limbs. However, Pirates also get harsher treatment from the law, and are so greedy for gold that they can literally be paid to walk away from combat.


How to play: The Pirate is a middlin' fair rogue on the land, and can survive well enough among landlubbers, but absolutely excels in command of a ship in pursuit of weak seabound targets. Clans would do well to keep a former-independent Pirate around to captain their ships for when the real ones come calling.

How to Play

The Pirate lacks the Sailor's Shipbuilding skill and thus has no way to do permanent repairs on their own. Pirates should avoid using slow ships as ship damage can drop the speed from 2 to 0 potentially stranding the ship at sea. If someone else loses their ship you can locate it with Make Pub Contacts.
