Pirate King/Queen

Overview

The Pirate King or Queen is the ruler of the pirate nation of the Isles of Ilhon. There have been a few rulers in the millennia of history of the region who do not prescribe to the gendered King or Queen title, the first of which chose to be called The Monarch instead. This third option has stayed in circulation ever since, for any that feel like it suited them more. The current Pirate Queen is Adi Baris.

Duties

The Pirate King/Queen is in charge of main faction of pirates in Isles, with their seat of power being Wild Tide Manor in the town of Sa'anlos. Sa'anlos is the main settlement on the island of Saldea, the most southerly of the Isles. It is incredibly rare for any one individual to hold power over all of the Isles at the same time, but the Pirate King/Queen is viewed as the ruler by any that sails its seas in at least a neutral capacity. Though, in truth, if the only locale the Pirate King/Queen holds is Sa'anlos, then that rule is effectively over already, it is usually a matter of time before they are deposed. Few rulers have managed to come back from that situation despite Sa'anlos's innate defensive prowess. At minimum, the Pirate King/Queen usually has direct control of the neighbouring island of Casyun, and its main town of Porta Cielo, with varying levels of control of the other Isles further north, or at least the respect of who does. Historically, the northwest island of Corbo has been the most difficult for the Pirate King/Queen to claim under their banner and is often under contested claim of entirely separate individuals, usually Captains near the top end of the High Bounties.
