Bellatores: Those Who Fight

Bonny Billy Blood Captain of the Lucinde Mae, Warcaptain of the Red Wake Warcaptain Bonny Billy Blood Original article: Bonny Billy Blood Bonny Billy Blood may be the closest thing Tamerynd Isle has to a pirate prince, not by bloodline or crown, but by charisma, cunning, and sheer bloody audacity. With his silver tongue, theatrical duels, and flair for public executions, Billy commands respect from friend and foe alike. He is legendary in port taverns, dreaded at sea, and loathed by those who cannot charm or kill as well as he can. His ship, the Lucinde Mae, is as infamous as its captain: sleek, fast, and notorious for flying no flag until after its victims are sunk. He maintains a network of lovers, allies, spies, and debtors across Tamerynd and beyond. He can quote poetry as easily as he can gut a man with a flourish. No one ever really trusts Bonny Billy. But many follow him... some out of love, more out of greed and the hope their share of his adventures will be more than they'd earn elsewhere.

Brogg Cinderjaw Captain of the Firemaw, Warcaptain of the Ashwake Reavers, Saintflayer Warcaptain Brogg Cinderjaw Original article: Brogg Cinderjaw Brogg “Cinderjaw” Cinderjaw is a towering orc Warcaptain of fearsome legend, known across the Pirate Isles for his scorched jaw clamped in blackened steel and his merciless hatred of gods and chains alike. Once a branded and burned as a prisoner of Ciritasnia, he rose from the ashes of torture to become a blasphemous firebrand of Tamerynd Isle, captaining the dread fleet known as the Ashwake Reavers. His flagship, the Firemaw, is a floating engine of ruin that leaves charred coastlines and crucified clerics in its wake. Brogg leads with unrelenting force and molten fury, forging loyalty through fear and defiance. To his followers, he is a liberator; to his enemies, he is a demon in iron, the embodiment of fire unbound.

Dartemis Mull Captain of the Deepmother, Warcaptain of the Bilgehand Syndicate, the Undertow Baron Warcaptain Dartemis Mull, the Undertow Baron Original article: Dartemis Mull Dartemis Mull is the beady-eyed master of wreck and ruin who commands a fleet of dredgers, divers, and salvage hulks that stalk storm-wrecked waters like carrion birds. Unlike most pirates who prey on living vessels, Dartemis is the bane of the dead sea, arriving after the storm, after the kraken, after the battle, and picking over the remains. But don’t be fooled: he’s no mere scavenger. He causes wrecks when they don’t come naturally, calling up whirlpools, false beacons, and sunken snares to drag merchantmen into watery graves.

Esmere Vallis Captain of the Throatbreaker, Warcaptain of the Brinewolves, "Salt-Stung" Warcaptain Esmere Vallis Original article: Esmere Vallis Known as Salt-Stung for the scars across her face, Esmere Vallis is one of the most vicious and resilient Warcaptains of the Pirate Isles. A former whaler turned pirate captain, Esmere is defined by raw survival instinct and brutal cunning. Where others ply charm or mysticism, Vallis wields brute force and fear, her hands calloused by rope, blood, and salt. Her fleet, the Brinewolves, are renowned for their swift hulls, harpoon weaponry, and ruthless boarding actions.

Kosh Mardu Captain of the Gutrender, Warcaptain of the Brine Maw Warcaptain Kosh Mardu Original article: Kosh Mardu Kosh Mardu is a towering brute of an orc. Once a pit-fighter in the blood arenas of the Valtaani, he is now a pirate warlord feared across the Betshaban Ocean. As captain of the fleet known as the Brine Maw, he commands through sheer force, brutality, and terrifying discipline. He is less interested in profit or glory than domination and submission. Entire villages whisper his name as a curse, and among the Warcaptains of the Pirate Isles, few are as feared… or as unpredictable.

Laboratores: Those Who Work

Regas Dall title Name Name Original article: Regas Dall Regas Dall is one of the few Warcaptains to retire on his own terms. Once infamous across the Pirate Isles for his elegant raiding style and slippery escape tactics, he now runs the largest and most secure fencing operation in Deepberth. Known for his discretion, silver tongue, and boundless memory for favors owed, Regas sits at the heart of a tangled web of secrets, stolen goods, and half-forgotten debts. In the winding alleys of Deepberth, it's said that if something stolen disappears again, it passed through Dall’s hands.
