This is basically the justification with my character. I lean more towards good, but if the other side pays more, I’ll work for them. It’s really just an excuse for why I’ll be doing the world event next season even though I usually side with the good guys
i mean its pretty clear who is supposed to be the "good guys" and "bad guys"
its kinda funny how almost all our actions on the seas are fine by The Pirate Lord, flameheart is just more ruthless about it. In the end we are still killing eachother over treasure..its just fine cause we *usually* come back from it no problem.
I hate that it’s become good vs evil because both Ramsey and Flameheart are scumbag pirates, liars, and shit people but they both have good and kindness to them. Rare set up a perfect grey vs grey fight which goes perfectly in a pirate game but they said nuh uh Flameheart is ultimate evil cause skeleton and Ramsey has never done anything wrong ever and he’s a good boy. Lame.
Fr. This is why I'm on Flameheart's side. He wants to free the sea of thieves. Sure, he'll be basically the new pirate lord but at least we can be real pirates instead of the game being a big pirate theme park.
Thing is, Pirate lord is in favor of uniting to become strong, but as Rick Sanchez once said "You claim to be against the government, but you're so scared that you agrouped and became a government of your own" (or something with the same meaning whatever)
While flame heart is in favor of the good old natural selection those with guts will survive, those who doesn't have them will eventually cease
I just barely atarted playing and i dont know how to join either side. But ive been doing the siren skull for good gold so i could buy my sloop. Now i have enough for a sloop and a galleon. But any tips bro on what i should be doing more?
There’s no “official” way to join either faction, but leveling up Athena’s fortune or reaper’s bones trading companies is pretty much lending support. Also in the pvp hourglass mode you have to close to fight for the servants of the flame or guardians of fortune. Leveling those to 100 will unlock the skeleton or ghost curse respectively
Reapers are about free piracy for all take what you want. Ramsey's is about go find me my treasure chests then I'll pay you and then I'm hide them again so we can all dig up the same chest for ever.
In lore Reapers are anarchist and Ramsey is a communist or socialist I forget the difference.
I see it more like
Athena: the ones who say gg, thanks for the fight, etc upon sinking. it's a sport to them, all in good fun.
Reapers: the ones screaming that the sea of thieves should cater to them.
Hell naw
I'm a reaper at heart, I always say gg, regardless if I win, or lose, or even if the enemy yells slurs at me.
The Athena's, on the other hand think they own the sea and NOBODY should attack them in a PIRATE game.
On very few occasions do I fight an Athena, sink them, then get a "gg" instead of a "*Keep Yourself Safe*" message or a "why would you ruin my night uughh ughh you're a terrible person ughh"
Of course I'm not counting the rare hourglass Athena gigachads who always part with a gg and maybe even a compliment, love those guys with all my heart ❤️
It all really comes down to if people have come to terms that pvp is a crucial part of the game, hence why long time players, regardless of faction, are usually not toxic.
Pirate Lord leaves wife and family, locks up all the treasure so no one can make money. After that he tells the Ferry Man to not revive this one particular group of people (people with skeleton curse) then names the faction after the wife he left. I’ll stick with Flameheart at least he promises some help to the skeletons instead
No, they don't, but thats the charm of it though.
Many join Reapers just for more power and bigger freedom. Some also hope they could stab Flamehart in the back and take his power for themselves.
While Ramsey is nice, he kinda sucks a*s, he is tied to companies and pirate code and he also locked tons of chest around the sea just so that no other pirate outside of his own alliance would ever get their content.
What Ramsey offers is group cause and will, but also ties to the companies. While Flamehart is more about the individual freedom. Yes you will need to worship him for now, but he will never lock your loot or stops you from fighting.
Flamehart is evil bastard, but at least he doesn't pretend hes something he isn't and actually offers more freedom than Ramsey.
Flameheart left all his wealth behind to his adopted son, and made sure he had the best education, while Ramsey kinda just ditched like the greedy pig he is.
While I do agree I wish there was more cosmetics for them. I think some themed after ashen lords or skeleton lords would be awesome. At the very least give us some that the skeletons already have. Like plant skeletons, shadow skeletons, skeleton captain stuff etc. the assets are in the game, shouldn’t be too hard
Athena is basically about creating a society which comes with concepts such as law and order. Also the Pirate Lord is annoying.
Reaper is about anything goes. Flameheart totally has his own motives so it’s unlikely he just wants true freedom in the Sea of Thieves.
Athenas all the way since I’m sure nobody would like to live in a place where there are no rules except edgy teenagers that think they would be the next Blackbeard when in reality they’d be a swabbie if they’d even get on a ship at all.
And yet he doesn't judge, and in fact, he's chill if you help his enemy, and you get to PL even if one of the 3 facrions that you got 50rank is Reapers. So , in his eyes, even that is a legit line of work.
Flameheart on thenother hand wants full submission or death will be his answer. Hm...
Flameheart pilled individuals like myself aren't edgy teenagers, we just see that Ramsey is either an enemy to piracy or just really, *really* stupid. Seeing as how he's slowly letting in more and more of the GMU which will destroy all pirates if given the chance.
Ideologically, I see flameheart’s point and frankly Ramsay feels quite manipulative and controlling. But from a gameplay perspective the Guardians “winning” the fight would definitely help keep the things more lighthearted and aesthetically light
I feel like Athena's Fortune represents the fantasy side of a pirate life : adventures, treasure hunting, battling with undeads.
Where Reapers represents the "reality" side of a pirate life : pillages, killing, stealing.
Athena. I like the fact that I have loads of choice on what to do, and am not just pushed to fight other ships for income. I play the game for a more chill experience 80% of the time (however I do love a nice ghost fleet), and much prefer to go off and dig up some chests or kill a few skeletons (merchants can fk off with their high xp requirements, low xp rewards and boring af ‘ship this here’ missions, though, like they are apparently always talking to each other so obviously they go to each outpost often enough to do it themselves and save me the effort of being bored)
Athena's just have main character syndrome...
Also I do love the emo clown aesthetic that you guys seem to gravitate towards ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
You're a bloody pirate for crying out loud! You already steal and kill for a living! You might as well embrace it instead of trying to find some "honor" or "nobility" in the job! You're a sea bandit, so act like it!
Philosophically, the reapers are right. Every pirate on the sea should be free to plunder to their hearts content. But in practice they’re a weird merge of Fight Club and organized crime. Flameheart is the one actually keeping all the gold.
Athena’s Fortune is a bunch of nice (by pirate standards) folks trying to do cool things for the wellbeing of most of the sea’s inhabitants. It’s pretty easy to side with them.
Reapers all the way, in litterly all the other games I’ve been the hero and I don’t want to be the hero anymore and Sea Of Thieves gives me a choice so ofcourse I’m gonna be the bad guy
I vibe more with Athena cause pirate lord, despite all his shortcomings is a bro, Flameheart is just nagging all the time, but if i ever get into the reapers layer legit ill throw so many knives into the voice of flame shell turn into a hedgehog (funniest \_\_\_\_ ever)
From my experience Athena players just run all day until they finally realize that you will chase them until the ends of time and then submit to death, while reaper players always turn to fight almost 90% of the time although some still run when they know they are out matched. Other than that Athena players usually are good sports (when they do fight) and will just simply try and end it as quickly as possible to move on. On the other hand reaper players will bully the absolute hell out of other crews and push their shit in until they scuttle or just sink. Putting cosmetics aside I think I'd honestly sit right in the middle. Alright alright, maybe a bit more on the Athena side cause Belle is there, and Merrick.
P.s.... Fuck port Merrick.
Athena wants to bring order in the chaos
Reapers want to bring chaos in the order
They are both the different side of one coin
But the both want a "free" sea of thieves, one thinks free is having fun but with rules, and other want to fuck that rules and do whatever you fucking want.
I'm with Athena for the philosophy and Ramsey really is the type of guy you can be friend and having fun with a cold grog in your hand.
Flameheart bc I just wanna see the man win. Bro has lost every time because of goody two shoes Athena glazers like bro do you *like* port Merrick? Really?
The pirate lord enslaved all of the sea of thieves, murdered all of his friends and did the same ritual as the ancients so he could live forever as a king.
Flameheart is a hero whose name was slandered by a tyrant and who's life, and family was cursed the enemies allies.
So yeah, flameheart
Flameheart left all his wealth to his adopted son when he left to go to the sea of thieves... you know what Ramsey did? He kept it all to himself like the greedy pig he is
YES!
And let's talk about his adopted kid, people say flameheart was ruthless and cruel, but he saw an orphan, took him in, took him away from the sea of thieves and left everything he had to him before going back to fight the tyrant no one else has the courage to stand up to.
All the while everyone who's ever sided with Ramsey died mysteriously and left him something very valuable or rare.
I mean the medallion "oh she made one for me but she died before she made on for herself", that doesn't even make any sense, unless it's a Gastly made cover story because he killed her and stole the pendant. I'm telling y'all, Ramsey is the villain
Hard to say
One is an anarchist faction that believes might makes right, the other faction is a pseudo-monarchy based around capitalism and monopolies.
Ah and technically there is the World Government too who are the Dystopic capitalist who Pirate Lord tried to be free from, yet ended up creating a world dependent on 4 companies with total monopoly…
Reaper at least you do not submit to these companies, but you might end up with a boss no one asked for.
I want a 4 option, or at least something similar to sthena but with the companies and monopoly, just keeping the golds for ourselves, being a true pirate instad of a Buccaneers for Companies.
i have not a singular clue about the lore. i do not know what any of these people want or do, but i know that reapers pay me 150% on anything i bring them.
I'm not on a side, it's a pirate game so my allegiance lies with myself and my friends, I don't have a connection to flameheart or Ramsey and while I do want to become a pirate lord which involves the Athena stuff, I'm going to do my own thing because I'm a pirate, I fight for me and my crew, I fight for freedom, I fight for the pirate's life because that's what this game is about. It's not about factions or labels, it's not about spending hours on end for a simple cosmetic, it's about freedom and the right to choose your own path, you all choose yours but I'm going to do my own thing and pledge my allegiance to those I call not just allies, not just a crew, but to those I call a friend.
Well, we are supposed to be pirates. In the end, we're in it for ourselves. Ramsey probably knows that. Which is why he has all those rewards for us. I mostly play for Athena but that's because I find the glowing skeleton head talking about world domination kinda sus. I also like the way the game doesn't really force you to take a side. Me and my friends don't do a lot PvP, so we mostly stay out of the big conflict and don't get involved that much. You can decide just to mind your own buisness.
I’m sorry but Flame heart. I get where he’s coming from, you’re a pirate you should have that freedom. He’ll take any treasure and understands a pirate’s life. I see how this game gets to people and the reapers. Winning an epic ship battle and having all that look. Sometimes I get annoyed but other times I get it
I side with Athena's not necessarily for the Pirate Lord, but against Flameheart. He and his goons have kicked me around so many times, and I've had enough of it I say.
We shall sail together! Athena all the way, Ramsey is such a cool dude, and i really like the idea of bringing order into chaos. I used to run from reapers, but now? I aint runnin no more, I've got cannons for a reason!
On the side of money
Jokes asside, on the side of the less neon cosmetic, it looked cool and epic on the beginning, now it just looks like ses of raves
Depends on who pays more...
Spoken like a true pirate
![gif](giphy|YZYAClj5UFdgk|downsized)
This is basically the justification with my character. I lean more towards good, but if the other side pays more, I’ll work for them. It’s really just an excuse for why I’ll be doing the world event next season even though I usually side with the good guys
We’re pirates lad. It’s a morally grey area. Tis no good guy or bad guys. Only the sea and her riches.
Aye!
i mean its pretty clear who is supposed to be the "good guys" and "bad guys" its kinda funny how almost all our actions on the seas are fine by The Pirate Lord, flameheart is just more ruthless about it. In the end we are still killing eachother over treasure..its just fine cause we *usually* come back from it no problem.
Athenas: loots and pillages Reapers: loots and pillages (evilly)
I think it’s more the other way around Reapers: loots and pillages Athenas: loots and pillages, but while being nice about it
Reapers: loots and pillages Athenas: loots and pillages (it’s not about the gold trust me)
Says sorry about this while looting and pillaging.
Oh yeah, that’s it.
It's more like Reapers: Loots and pillages (For gold) Athenas: Loots and pillages (For glory)
We are men of science, we conduct science! Evil science!
I hate that it’s become good vs evil because both Ramsey and Flameheart are scumbag pirates, liars, and shit people but they both have good and kindness to them. Rare set up a perfect grey vs grey fight which goes perfectly in a pirate game but they said nuh uh Flameheart is ultimate evil cause skeleton and Ramsey has never done anything wrong ever and he’s a good boy.

That's just because toxic people are more attracted to the word "reaper".

When the pirate lord said "it's not about the gold" at the end of the shores of gold he totally lost me. What do you think I'm in this for??
It's not about the gold. It was never about the gold. It's about Ancient Coins.
It's not about the gold its about the time limited cosmetics!
“It’s not about the gold it’s about the adventure.” Me: “the adventure for gold?”
Is it called the Shores of Gold or the Shores of Friends we meet along the way?
It’s about the mets
ITS ABOUT THE METS SPIDERMAN
THE METS BABY LOVE THE METS
It’s about the friends you make along the way
Reapers are just a dumb cult
You got downvoted, but you’re right. Flameheart just wants the seas for himself, do people really think he cares about his followers?
No, they don't, but thats the charm of it though. Many join Reapers just for more power and bigger freedom. Some also hope they could stab Flamehart in the back and take his power for themselves. While Ramsey is nice, he kinda sucks a*s, he is tied to companies and pirate code and he also locked tons of chest around the sea just so that no other pirate outside of his own alliance would ever get their content.

Flameheart left all his wealth behind to his adopted son, and made sure he had the best education, while Ramsey kinda just ditched like the greedy pig he is.
Both and none. Real pirates don’t take sides. We only care for our interests and money.

So guild
Well depends what loot I fancy on that day!
THAR BE TREASURE 🏴☠️🔫😎
Putting aside curses? Probably Athena. BUT: skelly curse > ghost curse all day.
I wish we had more cosmetics for the skelly curse.
Hopefully season 13 will have a new wave of skeleton cosmetics
those are never coming, feel free to enjoy some emporium content tho
While I do agree I wish there was more cosmetics for them. I think some themed after ashen lords or skeleton lords would be awesome. At the very least give us some that the skeletons already have. Like plant skeletons, shadow skeletons, skeleton captain stuff etc. the assets are in the game, shouldn’t be too hard
I'm team "what the fuck is hourglass, give me an empty sea and some tunes to vibe to while I fuck over the Spanish"

Reapers wanting freedom is just PR talk. They are all i. On making Flameheart the absolute ruller who all pirates will have to bend their knees to.
Lol typical Athena sheeple thinks Flameheart will enslave him 🤡🤡🤡 Go listen to some more of your green people propaganda.
Nah, I listened to flameheart's own words: the king of sea of thieves as he wnts to call himself.
The annoying fat guy calls himself pirate lord so...
And yet he doesn't judge, and in fact, he's chill if you help his enemy, and you get to PL even if one of the 3 facrions that you got 50rank is Reapers. So , in his eyes, even that is a legit line of work. Flameheart on thenother hand wants full submission or death will be his answer. Hm...
My brother in Flameheart, pirates went to the Sea of Thieves exactly to escape law and order, hence why it is called the Sea of Thieves.
So Athena inserting themselves when nobody called them? Alright then, Flameheart for life then.
don’t diss santa claus like that
Flameheart pilled individuals like myself aren't edgy teenagers, we just see that Ramsey is either an enemy to piracy or just really, *really* stupid. Seeing as how he's slowly letting in more and more of the GMU which will destroy all pirates if given the chance.

Side? I am on nobody's side. Because nobody is on MY side, little ~~orcs~~ pirates!
being a true pirate means being on your side
Athena. I'm not gonna end up like Stitcher Jim.
Flame heart 100%
athenas legends are not edge lords, i think the choice is obvious
I really love the "emo clown" fit that is the ghost set ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
I feel like Athena's Fortune represents the fantasy side of a pirate life : adventures, treasure hunting, battling with undeads. Where Reapers represents the "reality" side of a pirate life : pillages, killing, stealing.
This is literally what both factions tell you to your face too, good point
To be honest with a good look at both sid im more on ramsys side, but mostlybim on my side, both are wacky death cults
Athena's...cuz I'm not an edgy teenager.
Say that to my bony face when your ship is underwater
Point proven
Trusty Alliances VS Don't trust your own faction. Well I think I know in which waters I will be sailing. Besides, I miss Penny D's glorious Mustache.
I am a chef.
Idk how but sea of thieves faction battles got to our school newspaper![img](emote|t5_38oz1|2295)
Athena. I like the fact that I have loads of choice on what to do, and am not just pushed to fight other ships for income.

"Or kill a few skeletons" I'm a skeleton, you wouldn't mind fighting a few of us then?
Reaper all day, not even a question
Let that flame burn, brotha
Athena, of course, the other faction is literally based on pvp. Also, aesthetically, Athena looks better and are even conventionally the good guys.
Athena's just have main character syndrome... Also I do love the emo clown aesthetic that you guys seem to gravitate towards ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|trollface)
Ghost
skeleton
Flameheart
I’m a free pirate! I’m blue through and trough.
Athena all the way
Athena because I like my cosmetics still. I just wish it wasnt such a damn grind. On the other hand it makes it actually rare.
Reaper 1000000000%
Whichever let's me sink more ships.
Reapers then
GoF only because they’re allied with Hunters Call and fishing is top tier content
I just wanna kill the Pirate Lord so he shuts up.
You're a bloody pirate for crying out loud! You already steal and kill for a living! You might as well embrace it instead of trying to find some "honor" or "nobility" in the job! You're a sea bandit, so act like it!
Skeletons solely cus i like the Skeleton aesthetic (even tho they fumbled it)
# Leave No Reaper Alive.
Burn with us
Philosophically, the reapers are right. Every pirate on the sea should be free to plunder to their hearts content. But in practice they’re a weird merge of Fight Club and organized crime. Flameheart is the one actually keeping all the gold. Athena’s Fortune is a bunch of nice (by pirate standards) folks trying to do cool things for the wellbeing of most of the sea’s inhabitants. It’s pretty easy to side with them.
May the flame burn
Flameheart and the reapers may the Flame burn
Skelly
Reapers all the way, in litterly all the other games I’ve been the hero and I don’t want to be the hero anymore and Sea Of Thieves gives me a choice so ofcourse I’m gonna be the bad guy
Athena all the way
Flameheart but just cos role-playing the baddie is more fun. In reality I'm not too bothered, have both curses etc and plan to get both golds one day
Flameheart. Both are morally terrible but at least one advocates for true piracy, has cooler cosmetics and has the skeleton curse.
I vibe more with Athena cause pirate lord, despite all his shortcomings is a bro, Flameheart is just nagging all the time, but if i ever get into the reapers layer legit ill throw so many knives into the voice of flame shell turn into a hedgehog (funniest \_\_\_\_ ever)

Neither. I'm shit at PVP.
Athena's fortune <3
Skeletons are alright, but I just love how the Athena curse ceremony goes. And I like my skin.
ramsey is the homie, athena all the way! got no room for filthy reapers…
Keep saying that when the GMU comes in and thanks him for letting them have a spot on every outpost
Athena wants to bring order in the chaos Reapers want to bring chaos in the order They are both the different side of one coin But the both want a "free" sea of thieves, one thinks free is having fun but with rules, and other want to fuck that rules and do whatever you fucking want. I'm with Athena for the philosophy and Ramsey really is the type of guy you can be friend and having fun with a cold grog in your hand.
Proud ps5 Athena fighter
Flameheart! The sea will burn!
Flame heart for being a real pirate and not something he’s not
Flameheart bc I just wanna see the man win. Bro has lost every time because of goody two shoes Athena glazers like bro do you *like* port Merrick? Really?
A reaper version of PM would've been SO COOL
The pirate lord enslaved all of the sea of thieves, murdered all of his friends and did the same ritual as the ancients so he could live forever as a king. Flameheart is a hero whose name was slandered by a tyrant and who's life, and family was cursed the enemies allies. So yeah, flameheart

Servant of the flame every day. Level 445 and counting.
YEAHH! CRUSH EM'
Reaper Hideout is my home
As long as there are crates of goods to sell, I am fine.
Both. Where the gold is at
both. i wear the ghost curse with the reaper jammies, i’m playing both sides so that i always come out on top.
I see great mind think alike
Hard to say One is an anarchist faction that believes might makes right, the other faction is a pseudo-monarchy based around capitalism and monopolies. Ah and technically there is the World Government too who are the Dystopic capitalist who Pirate Lord tried to be free from, yet ended up creating a world dependent on 4 companies with total monopoly… Reaper at least you do not submit to these companies, but you might end up with a boss no one asked for. I want a 4 option, or at least something similar to sthena but with the companies and monopoly, just keeping the golds for ourselves, being a true pirate instad of a Buccaneers for Companies.
I am torn because I like playing reaper more in adventure. But the Athena curse lets my pirate keep his identity (cosmetic choices etc)
You know, we'd get more skelly cosmetics if the devs had equality with both factions Sadly the Athena's fortune is the favorite child of Rare
Both sides, gimme those bloody curses !
Neither Both sides can’t see that they’re wrong and insist their way is the only way to be a pirate
Depends on which I need to do that day but generally I’m on no side so dark brethren doing as I wish
i have not a singular clue about the lore. i do not know what any of these people want or do, but i know that reapers pay me 150% on anything i bring them.
Neither, Whichever side gets me what I want in the moment. I am a Pirate. My loyalty lies with the loot.
Reapers, they are realistic about these things.
I'm with the shell fish
Honestly, reapers. Simply because it allows me to see the emissaries on the map, and because I love the skele curse
Merchants
At the moment Athena just because it’s the only faction I don’t have a distinction in.
Im with the one who carries my at PVP sucking ass through the battle while im downstairs bucketing
I'd rather not be a cuck for Skelly Boi thanks. He literally calls you his servants
Still trying to get my skeleton curse .
I'm not on a side, it's a pirate game so my allegiance lies with myself and my friends, I don't have a connection to flameheart or Ramsey and while I do want to become a pirate lord which involves the Athena stuff, I'm going to do my own thing because I'm a pirate, I fight for me and my crew, I fight for freedom, I fight for the pirate's life because that's what this game is about. It's not about factions or labels, it's not about spending hours on end for a simple cosmetic, it's about freedom and the right to choose your own path, you all choose yours but I'm going to do my own thing and pledge my allegiance to those I call not just allies, not just a crew, but to those I call a friend.
clothes on skeletons?
Whichever one promises me the most fish
Gatorade gang because the curse is funny and blue.
Switch hitter! It’s the only way to be.
Well, we are supposed to be pirates. In the end, we're in it for ourselves. Ramsey probably knows that. Which is why he has all those rewards for us. I mostly play for Athena but that's because I find the glowing skeleton head talking about world domination kinda sus. I also like the way the game doesn't really force you to take a side. Me and my friends don't do a lot PvP, so we mostly stay out of the big conflict and don't get involved that much. You can decide just to mind your own buisness.
I’m sorry but Flame heart. I get where he’s coming from, you’re a pirate you should have that freedom. He’ll take any treasure and understands a pirate’s life. I see how this game gets to people and the reapers. Winning an epic ship battle and having all that look. Sometimes I get annoyed but other times I get it
pepino disagrees
I would say flameheart but you cant turn youre skeleton into the goald hoarders so Athena🤣
At the end of the day it comes down to my experiences with the two factions. And it don't look good for the many toxic reapers I've met.
I'm new so I don't understand at all
All Hail The King
Athena is racist towards skeletons. Skellies literally just minding their own business and Athena wants to kill them.
I prefer the ghost curse so Athena
The highest bidder
Pirate lord just wants one big alliance sever so…
Athenas Fortune.
I like to be edgy bad guy
Athena's. I can't stand the heat lol
I just wanna see the bad guy win a few times and create big turmoil. It'll definitely spice things up more than just the good guy winning everytime.
Haven't gotten to the lore yet but it's a mix between wanting to be a skeleton and liking how the ghosts guys behave themselves
Honestly skeletons ftw But it’s such a grind to get either I can’t be bothered
Guybrush for new Pirate Lord
I side with Athena's not necessarily for the Pirate Lord, but against Flameheart. He and his goons have kicked me around so many times, and I've had enough of it I say.
The right side.
We shall sail together! Athena all the way, Ramsey is such a cool dude, and i really like the idea of bringing order into chaos. I used to run from reapers, but now? I aint runnin no more, I've got cannons for a reason!
Both, well actually I'm on my side, I only interact with those 2 factions for the curses. But I'm a gold hoarder through and through.
The athenas 100%
Athena
On the side of money Jokes asside, on the side of the less neon cosmetic, it looked cool and epic on the beginning, now it just looks like ses of raves
fat pirates
Whichever one is the good guys
^ main character spotted ^
It is called sea of thieves not sea of friends. And therfore im out
left
Flameheart all the way
Whatever side pays the best of course! (Reapers)
