Our event is set in the Caribbean during the late 1700’s as the golden era of piracy is

beginning to fade. Competing regional aspirations between the French, British, Spanish
and the newly independent United States of America mean there is a lack of authority on
the seaways, providing plenty of pickings for an enterprising pirate Captain with a stout
ship. Most goods of value travelled by sea, if a pirate was lucky, he might come across a
poorly defended ship packed with treasures.… But, having taken possession of a ship
and its cargo, the pirate Captain had a problem. What to do with his prize? Most pirates
Captains allowed the crew a share of captured booty, but he couldn’t just walk into a
local bank and make a deposit. Much better to bury it in a spot known only to him….

Excuse me rudeness, I ortin' ta be havin' introduced myself!

 

 

I be Sir Lancelot Britworth-Jones an' due t' unfortunate circumstances I found I be gi'en th' choice o' bein' set adrift in a wee boat miles from land or civilisation or joinin' Captain Black`s crew an' sailin' under th' skull an' crossbones. Captain Black attacked th' ship I be travellin' on, I had nay choice but t' join th' lad's... 
I be used t' givin' orders, I do nay take them easily, a man in me position cares nothin' fer sharin' me quarters wi' scurvy riddled scum. I be third in line t' th' Duke o' Devonshire an' demand th' respect I be entitled too!

 

Oh, I seem to have spent far too much time on the Blackbird, I've acquired a bit of a accent

*staggers up from the hold....eyes bleary...breath like a rat's arse....spots all the local law men all over the ship....grabs a handful of mint leaves to chew on and tries to sober up*

Hello there Sir, have we met before? I host the most fabulous dinner parties in town, maybe you have been to one?

Arrrr...... maybe it be fer th' best that we introduce oursels'. T' avoid misunderstandin' an' false accusations an' the like?


Seems like this maybe a good time fer me t'come clean. Ye probably all know anyway, an' may as well be honest wi' ye all now. What wi' th' Captain poppin' his clogs, I dares't reckon I'll be travelling th' seas wii' the lot o' ya anymore anyways.

aye, ye`re used t' runnin' t' cabins wench, ye be hangin' off th' ladders waitin' fer th' Blackbird t' dock when she entered port. Visitin' cap`n Black`s quarter fer an hour or so each time. You set th' crews tongue`s a waggin'

Deanna Troi

*sits in the Captain's Cabin and talks to him as if he can hear*

 

Oh you foolish man, you knew some of them were bad news, Ah know of your plan to rid yourself of that awful Barnie Caul and the way you felt that weasel Warren was far too noseh for his own good. You should have got rid of them when you docked, shouldn't you Inky, darlin'? Ah sure wish you had, Ah shall miss mah visits to you, here in this verreh cabin, how will Ah cope without you?

 

*puts head in beautifully jewelled hands and sobs piteously*

You know me now as Carry and you all know it was Cap'n Black and you horrid Crew that attacked the Good ship Troubadour on which I was the Quartermaster (and a canny job that was). You lot took the ship as your prize and gave the crew, including me 2 choices, join you and be a pirate or swim with the fishies.. We Cap'n Black was a better choice to the other sharks so here I am.. Now he's gone .. !!!

Oh mah, in all the commotion Ah appear to have forgotten mah manners. Mah mammy would be mortified. Let me introdune mahself, Ah am Sophie Silverbrass and I am one of the most populah people in Freetown, Ah host the finest soirees for mahles around and the rich and famous travel from all ovah just to be at one. Ah know some verreh influential people.

 

The darlin' Captain was one of mah closest associates and Ah used to look for his ship coming into the harbour because Ah knew he would want to see me. I have spent some wonderful times on this ship with him.

 

Ah can't believe he has gone.
