My letter of Marque is through the Midrealm Crown, read and named Capten in court. However if the Crown of Ansteorra would like to discuss a change of venue, I am open to that.<br><br><br>-------------------------------------------------<br>
So there I was the other day at an Ansteorran port selling some.. umm recently acquired goods, when a merchant came up dragging a member of the Guard. Accusing me of selling his goods.<br><br>So I said to the guard Good morning Captain, How can I help you?<br>
<br>Oh? you are a just a Sargent? I would have thought someone with your obvious bearing was an officer, not just an unappreciated, underpaid Sargent. But Anyway Sargent, How can I be of service?<br><br>Piracy? I assure you Sargent these goods were acquired quite legally. The I was sailing along minding my own business when we came upon a vessel burning and quickly sinking, seeing no other vessels in sight we investigated and found no survivors, there were canon ball holes and damage throughout and the ship was unsaveable. It appeared to be damage from an East Kingdom marauder, but anyway with no one left the cargo clearly falls under maritime salvage laws so my crew and I recovered it, you can see the water damage on these crates right here. Now If I hadn't just sold it all I would have given the previous owner a discount of course.<br>
<br>Black sailed Pirates? Why no Sargent, I haven't seen any such. My ship is right there and you can see my sails are white.<br><br>Why thank you Sargent I appreciate your time and hard work. Oh, one thing, Do you suppose you could do me a favor Sargent? I want to be sure and catch the tide,and taking the port taxes over might cost me too much time, Do you suppose you could drop off this bag of money at the Port Authority?<br>
<br>Thank you Sargent, I appreciate it, and here, let me give you something to buy a drink, after you are off duty of course. <br><br>And thank you Good Merchant for alerting me to brigands in there area. Do you suppose you could point me to the Merchant who sells cannon balls? I seem to be low on stock and if there are Pirates in the area I want to make sure my ship is fully armed.<br>
<br>No? That's ok, I am sure we can find him.<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>So Nope so far no complaints from Ansteorran Authorities. I even paid my taxes.<br><br>-Captain Rhys<br>

<div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div>Got it in one. I have a Letter of Marque and a Ship The Arian Lloer (The Silver Moon). I have been a Privateer Captain much longer then the silly movies that made it popular. I am a Welshman, and Wales is covered in rocks, so there is really only two things to do, One, go to sea, Two make fun of the Irish and the Scottish. Other then that, there isn't much to do.<br>
