Properties[]
Pirates are individuals who commit acts of piracy, crime, often robbery or criminal violence, committed at sea or occasionally on shore. Pirates come in two types: cold-blooded villains who rob others of life and loot, and dashing romantic heroes and rebels, ranging from the rather goofy to the totally rebellious, who are more concerned with adventure and freedom.
