The Pirate King
The Pirate King was elected based on their notoriety, respectability, and leadership. The last Pirate King was DarkLieutenant. The Pirate King is the leader of the Blackwind Pirates in Tradelands, However the Pirate Captains now make up the leadership of the island. The Pirate Council provided the King with advice on common issues, such as the navies. The Pirate King was also granted an official title of Blackwind Pirate King. A female Pirate King would be known as the Pirate Queen.

Former Pirate Council Edit
The Pirate Council were the advisers to the Pirate King/Queen. They were made of the most feared and respectable pirates in Tradelands. Sometimes during battles with navies, the pirate council would help their King and try to win the battle. A Pirate Captain could challenge an existing Pirate Council crew to a battle where the result of said battle would decide whether or not the Captain and its crew could rise in rank. There were to be no more then 9 official Council crews and the only spots that would open were if one of the Council stepped down or were disbanded over time.

As of April 28th, 2018, the Pirate Council system was dissolved by a vote from the Player's Union of Tradelands. The system has been replaced by the Captain system, where leaders of pirate crews work together equally on the diplomacy of Blackwind Cove.

Pirate Crews Edit
Some pirates who are smart, bring a crew with them to attack merchants. In some cases, some crews are more feared and/or more recognized than others. As for most of the older pirates crews, they have adapted skills from constant battles with navies and in turn give well fought battles.

Diplomatic Relations Edit
The Blackwind Pirates have no diplomatic relations with anyone. They simply work together in crews; unlike other factions, Blackwind has no alliances, and is the only enemy of other factions. (Except for wars.)

While equal to Captains in the Blackwind Cove group, these individuals are former Pirate Kings/Queens and receive this custom title in the Tradelands Official Discord.

Pirates are known for targeting Whitecrest most often, because the island is downwind from Blackwind Cove alongside occasionally seizing the islands of Perth and Fenwick (the former, more), and use Salem as well as the other islands as camps, in order to disrupt trade. Cannoneer's Key and Freeport also act as refuge for them, and even Harrisburg too.
