Elven Pirates

Criminal Activity

Greed drives many to terrible acts of thievery, lust, and violence. No matter how civilized your people claim to be.

Greed, and violence is inevitable in mortal beings, and elves are no different. Some feed their greed through business, while others prefer a more messy method of feeding their greed. There were enough individuals with this mindset that the elven pirates were born. They mostly consist of thieves who've been caught, and banished. Now they take out their rage on every trade ship they see. They were ruthless in their endeavors. Very few would survive a elven pirate raid. Each nation needed a way to combat this new threat. They used everything from ballista companies, to battle wizards. The pirates responded with thicker armor on their vessels, and anti-magic arcane casting. They made it clear that they were here to stay. Fafnia did not accept this. They openly declared war on these pirates. Swearing to never stop until the elven pirate hoard was wiped from existence. This “war” would last several years longer than either side had hoped. Eventually, everyone realized that the elven pirates were now just a part of nautical life, and they must be prepared.
