Fleet of the Black Hearts

There is little semblance of law and order in Trotuia Bay. However, a tribunal of 8 of the most feared pirates in Valynduur exists as a loose government: the Fleet of Black Hearts. They act as a Kleptocracy, with no regards to citizen's rights or justice given. The Black Hearts govern the territories that each pirate fleet controls and serves as a court for any dispute between captains that can't be settled with a dagger in the back.

50 years ago, a naval fleet was assembled between the countries of The Astor Dominion and Varyndale to eliminate the growing threat merchants and traders faced from pirates. Battle after fierce battle raged at sea, with the pirate ranks rapidly dwindling from treachery, territorial disputes, and the relentless hunt from the navy patrols. Several captains of the larger pirate fleets met to create the Fleet of Black Hearts in order to protect each other against themselves and naval fleets.

Currently the Fleet of the Black Hearts has 8 captains that serve in it. There is no clear-cut leader, but Captain Raz Khanoush usually leads the meetings and finances any ventures set forth by other captains. The tribunal normally meets underneath The Haggard Old Crow when deemed necessary to discuss urgent matters.
