Open Sea Adventures
Upcoming Ship sailing and adventure! Currently in Development
Open Sea Adventures
Open Sea Adventures is part of a new area and expansion to the game. This area will primarily be accessed via the town Kraken's Fall. From there you can purchase, sail, and fight aboard your vessels with a crew of other players.
Reputation, Notoriety
Reputation and notoriety are gained with the town by hunting down pirates or performing tasks at the Sea Hag's Roost. Reputation unlocks more cosmetic options and the ability to purchase the larger ships. Notoriety tracks your total infamy on the seas. There is tracking for your "all time" notoriety and a 30 day notoriety tracking. This is mostly for bragging rights. Your total pirate kills is also tracked. (More tracking planned)
Death and Total Failure
Should you die on the sea or fall overboard you will eventually drown or die. When this happens you will either be rescued by good sailors, or pirates. Each one will then sail you back to town and either ransom you or the town will charge you for the rescue services. If your ship is sunk, you must repair it. All fees must be paid on a ship before you can launch it again.
Ship Buying
To buy a ship you need to visit Chip n' Dwight's on Deadeye's Road in Kraken's Fall. When first starting on your career as a captain you will only have access to the sloop. To earn access to the larger ships you will need to earn reputation with the town of Kraken's Fall. You can do so by performing tasks or hunting down pirate ships out on our beloved ocean, the Tenebrous Cauldron. Ships are a one-time purchase and can never be re-sold or transferred.

Ship Repairing & Fees
Repairing & Fees
As you sail your ship it may incur damage that must be repaired. To repair your ship after it is destroyed or damaged you will need to visit the boatswain. You can find him at the Academy of the Bos'n on Deadeye's Road. You may also find yourself with fines due to services provided by the town while out on the open sea or trapped in a back alley. You will need to pay these off at the local debt collector. Having debts in either form will prevent you from launching your ship again.
Roles
