Defines the guidlines that pirates in Cerilia will use.

Access to a place of power and unique abilities, as well as a nation that might be willing to do whatever they decree.

History

This title has been passed from king to king through murder. It is unclear if it has ever been passed to another without the previous King having been killed.   Albrecht was the past king who had been captured by the authorities and was awaiting his trail and hanging. However, Karl had snuck into his cell to murder him one night and unknowingly became the next king with the bloodtheft he committed.

Cultural Significance

The Vos people love this practice and only the strong are fit to rule. As a result slavery is currently very popular in the pirate culture and many Vos become pirates.   The Brecht do not approve of this nation, but many use it for smuggling purposes. The King of Brechtur despises this false king and everything his nation stands for.   Khinasi people are a little removed from the situation but do not see the honour in the pirate nation or their people.   Rjuven people do not care too much as they don't have much to do with the sea traditionally.
