“It’s been a long time since we set out on this venture, o' brother o’ mine. They laughed and called us mad. Well who be laughing now aye?
Welcome finally to tha’ Black Thorn Cove! Ay' and if ye stumble across an island with a similar name, know that we had it first!” - First Hand, Barrett Finn

• A small island south of the Meranthian swamplands has been claimed by a small crew of self-proclaimed pirates, calling themselves the Black Rose Pirates.
  
• The first establishment announced has been revealed to be the Salt Serpent Tavern, a hub for the small crew of pirates (498, 332, 1) as well as many other walks of life, mostly including drunkard outcasts and bounty hunters.
  
• A board has been installed within the Salt Serpent Tavern, it is said that the Pirates of the Black Rose will begin organizing bounty outlets to be set and collected.
  
• Word has spread that the Black Rose Pirates will begin recruitment for their first maiden voyage. Find Captain Orion Finn or First Hand Barrett Finn for relaying interests.
  
• Talk moves of interest to be cast on behalf of the Black Rose Pirates to certain factions, offering their aid in any upcoming battles.. for the right price.
  
• The small island is beginning to be recognized as a viable port of trade for seafaring men and women. Master craftsmen have set up shop and offer availability to those in need of specific craft, docks established for the docking and unloading of ships and their units of containment.
  
• Rumor moves of an underground trade syndicate, perhaps some showing interest in the recreational manufacturing of the drug known as Sylvanum.
  

The island population at current stands to be of small numbers, a scattered hundred or so , mostly passerby of seafaring men and outcasts of the capital. A town of great danger and little law, though seemingly open to most as a neutral ground so long as they could hold their own to the threats of encountering those of little moral standing. A welcoming zone for trade and market as well as the more nefarious acts of selling drugs and other illegal goods and services. A beautiful home for the servant of opportunity.
