How to be a Pirate
Have you ever been attacked by a pirate? Do you need defense against them? Or do you just want to be a pirate? If yes is the answer, this guide is for you!
Step 1: A "fancy" outfit
Most pirates have "fancy" clothes. They look a little worn out and unusual. Pirates (most pirates, anyway) have crazy facial hair. For example, a mustache, a beard or both! They also have bandanas and/or hats. But no baseball caps, of course.
Step 2: Weapons and fighting skills
You must have good weapons and skills to fight someone. Or, if you're really unlucky, you will have to use your fists, and that battle won't be pretty. Here is a list of trusty weapons you can use:
- Guns - They are very useful, but usually pirates are too drunk to aim right.
- Swords - Very original. Be careful not to recklessly swing all over the place and accidentally cut down some rigging.
- Axes - An unusual weapon. The axe is rarely used, but hey - there are some clueless "pirates" out there.
- Cannons - A great weapon. A must-have for the ship. Not very portable, though. Just be careful not to shoot your own ship.
All real pirates drink alcohol - mostly rum and grog.
Step 4: Talking
You're also going to have to learn to talk like a pirate! Ask your friend how.
Step 5: Ships and sailing skills
This step should be fairly obvious. Once you've got all the stuff that you need, you must acquire a ship. You also need your sailing sense. If you don't have these, we'll all call you a landlubber.
Step 6: Stealing
Whenever you spot a ship that isn't yours (or your ally's), attack it! But feel free to betray your allies. Step two helps here. If you defeat all the sailors on a ship, you will have a new ship and maybe some goods! This way, you will never have to return to land for supplies again.
If you follow all these steps, you will be a pirate in no time! If you are missing even one of these steps, you will be considered a wannabe. So start training!
