  1. Set in a world where the water outnumbers the land by a vast fold and only islands exist within the vast oceans you are the captain or crew member of a pirate crew. However in this world there is much more than just pirates and booty. Many years ago the countless sea nations formed together a single army to fight the pirates in the seas, forming a massive navy and an endless war that wages to today. More so there are many forces, both human and of nature to fight within the perilous seas. One of these forces could very well be you, as the Pacts of the Old Gods bring powers from beneath the seas in ancient contracts written with demons beyond human conception. These powers are those that rival that of magic. As well there are the natural skills of a being that can be honed to supernatural qualities so that one can outrun a bullet, slice through steel, or even bend reality under their will with Voodoo...
