Spotted a ghost ship off New Asgard, drifting west. Ship-rigged sloop, looks like one gun deck. Can't spot a name on her, but she's flying a black flag with a horned skeleton stabbing a heart.

Someone who knows how to not catch a plague should probably look into it.

	Plague Pirates? I'll go check it out. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	knifeofdunwall 2022-04-20 05:50 pm UTC (link)
	Couldn't say. Plague is just the most likely reason I know of for a ship to drift in with no crew. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Checks out. Not something I need to worry about though. I'll find out if anyone is on there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Good. Watch yourself, just the same. On these waters, I couldn't rule out a ship of actual ghosts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll bring my Death Totem, should give me a head start to get out of there if needed. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Could I talk Gideon into letting me hitch a ride? Perhaps. Do I prefer when you're in on it? Yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I need to talk to Gideon about who she actually listens to one of these days. Of course you can come with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sure it is. I'll be on the jumpship. I'm checking weapons and medical supplies just in case. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Both, maybe? Smart. I'm not worried about the plague but you never know what else might be on board. I'll load up on knives and my best camera. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Forever grateful the plague is not a valid concern. Gideon will be able to tell us ahead of time either way. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Raylan and I came across a guy who claims to be Blackbeard. He tried to fight me. He's been subdued, but we're getting him to the DOA. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Blackbeard. He was a pain in the ass in my world. This is potentially his ship then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	PRIVATE. owndamnweapon 2022-04-20 06:48 pm UTC (link)
	Alleged pain in the ass in mine, too. Not sure this guy is actually Blackbeard because he was definitely not scary, but 🤷 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If were stupid enough to board it and lay claim to it, then by pirate custom I could keep it for as long as I could hold it. As piracy is a headache and I've never had call to learn to sail an old-fashioned sloop, however, I'll leave that to someone else. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	One thing that getting a boat and heading up a gang of cutthroats have in common is that they seem like a good idea at the start, but they turn out to be an eternal pain in the ass. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like you're speaking from experience. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knifeofdunwall 2022-04-20 06:47 pm UTC (link)
	Well-spotted. Listen to the voice of experience and don't become a pirate captain. Now, privateering, that's another matter. If Vallo's issuing letters of marque, then you might want to look into assembling a crew. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bitlessdead 2022-04-20 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	Way to ruin all my hopes and dreams. IDK what letters of marque even are but I'll keep that in mind. If I told my blacksmith I wanted a boat I bet she'd make me one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	knifeofdunwall 2022-04-20 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	It's my calling. Letters of marque, at least in my world, are issued by governments to sanction a private citizen raiding another nation's shipping. If you have a letter of marque from the Queen of Morley, you can still get hanged for plundering Gristolian ships, but only if Gristol catches you. As far as Morley's concerned, you're a patriot.

	Weird. Some fucknut who claims to be Blackbeard just tried to fight me. Maybe it's his ship? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Is Blackbeard a name I should know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Guess that depends on where you're from. In my world he's historically noted as a big scary asshole. This guy? Not so much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ah. Must be an "earth" person. "Big scary asshole is actually not that scary" is probably universal, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
