Pirate

Pirates are the scourge of the sea, living from battle to battle in their search for treasure. Pirates are unique in their ability to wield firearms and incendiary devices. Because of the havoc they wreak on land and sea, the longer a pirate stalks the realm, the bigger his reputation.

There are six levels of pirate reputation:
Cabin Person
Pirate
Renown Pirate
Dread Pirate
Notorious Pirate
Captain

The following races may not be pirates:

Shalonesti Elves, Pixie, Giant Ogres, Mountain & Hill Dwarves, Centaurs and Ariel.

You can only become a Pirate by reclassing from the thief class.

Armor

Pirates can wear cloth and leather armor, and can use shields.

Experience by Race

How much experience a pirate of each race needs per level compared to normal (100%); higher means slower leveling. Which races may actually become a pirate is listed under Becoming a Pirate below.

Skills & Spells

Free at Creation

Every pirate starts with these, at no creation point cost.

Pirate Default Package (40 creation points)

Skills

Skills a pirate can learn individually. Cost is in creation points at creation; after creation, skills are gained from your guildmaster for twice that many trains.

Spell Groups

Pirates cannot buy spells one at a time; spells come in groups. Each group lists the level at which a pirate can cast each spell.

Racial Skills

Only pirates of the listed race receive these.

Becoming a Pirate
