CREW SYSTEM
In the eyes of the World Government, a pirate crew is defined as “ is anyone, who raises a Jolly Roger.” Whether they commit an act of piracy or not, the sole act of raising a Jolly Roger is grounds enough for arrest by the marines. As such, small crews of pirates can be formed quite easily provided enough funds can be raised for the purchase of a boat. Though technically any vessel with a jolly roger could be considered a ‘pirate ship’, for a group to even be considered a true pirate crew, they must be in possession of a small caravel class ship.
Though crews can be composed of a random group of people who simply want to float about in the ocean, highly functional crews have specific roles filled by capable individuals in various vital tasks. Outlined below are the specific rewards that crew members can reap by having someone perform a specific role actively on a pirate crew.
Basic crews are required to have at least a Caravel class ship, which can be upgraded later.
Captain and First mate rank are achieved upon foundation of a crew. All pirates may choose ONE of the 8 professions below upon creation. The first level of your chosen profession is free, the others are purchased with Infamy. You may only have One profession, with the exception of Captain and/or First Mate.
----
Captain - Leader - A Captain rank pirate is a natural born leader who commands his crew and team mates across the sea's. Searching for treasure and taking care of the basic needs of an average pirate ship. Captains will be picked by their quality and activity, making sure we only have the best and brightest competing against each other. Acquiring a ship means a crew is capable of traveling across the sea's as well as entering the Grand Line, without a true vessel a single pirate will sink on his raft. Captains will be able to name their ships and crew. This becomes your role upon making a crew, meaning you don't start out with it.
- AURA OF COMMAND!
Level: 1/2/3/4
Attribute:Profession
Description: When crew members are in battle with their captain, they are inspired to fight harder and better than if they were alone. Going into a conflict with a captain, crew members will gain a small boost to their abilities, increasing combat effectiveness by (2/5/7/10)% (Ex. A gunner with a level 4 captain who's range is 50 meters, will now be able to hit 55 meters away. A sword slash attack that would travel 10 meters will now go 11, and someone who can run 20 meters per second can now cover 22.)
Cost: Free/30/50/90
First Mate - The man directly under the Captain in rank, this is the second in command aboard the ship or when the Captain is away. If the captain was to die, this official would easily step up to claim the ship and the crew under their name. The first-mate is the partner of all the crew, and helps in making the toughest decisions the captain has. Rarely leaving the side of the Captain, or the Ship keeping their eyes on both at all times. Making sure everyone else, including the Captain is doing their job and properly heading toward their goal be it trivial or material. This becomes your role upon becoming first-mate, meaning you don't start out as it.
- LESSER AURA OF COMMAND!
Level: 1/2/3/4
Attribute:Profession
Description: As the second in command, the first mate acts as captain when the leader cannot perform their duties. As a result, First Mates can inspire those who go into battle with them as well, however, with less vigor than the actual captain. First mates can evoke a (1/2/3/5)% increase to those under their command. This bonus will never stack with the Captain’s buff. If the First Mate is promoted to captain at a later date, this skill automatically transforms into it’s upgraded form.

While not necessary, many navigators have the knowledge of cartography, giving them the ability not just to read maps but to create their own maps of their journey, taking the knowledge that they pick up and using it to create guides for others from crewmates to other people in other parts of the world to know and understand what they are entering when in a certain area.
