Sky pirates! Ever played a game like that? Ever wanted to? I'm

You can't be a pirate without knowing the geopolitics of the age. What do you have to work with?

Well you've got the noble and the old man, but where's the young, hot blooded pirate in his prime? Without one, the whole dynamic is gonna be lopsided. You gotta take on the mantle, a true, genuine pirate.

I helped build and playtest this, if that's of any interest.

You make a compelling argument!

Difficult to do, though. Here's the thing: it's easy to be a character archetype in a general setting, where that archetype is just one of the options. But when the whole system is based around one archetype, it's difficult to make a character who plays that archetype straight and competently.

For example: If you want to make a swashbuckler in D&D, you put your points in Dexterity and Charisma. If you want to make a swashbuckler in Honor and Intrigue... well, it's a system about swashbucklers, and all the stats are things you need to be a swashbuckler. If you spread your points out, you'll suck at everything; if you specialize in, say, "Daring," you'll suck at "Savvy" and "Flair" and not be much of a swashbuckler.
