He may have a peg leg and a hook for a left hand, yes. But Captains are as deadly as their crew and as thirsty for booty as any pirate. Armed with their trusty parrot companion, these guys are tough and don't go down without a fight.





Overview

Leader of the Pirates, this tough old man wields powerful weaponry, and boasts greater endurance than any of the other Pirate classes.

With a little skill and a lot of Blunderbuss this class can be devastating. If things get too tough, he can always rely on his vicious Parrot for a momentary distraction. The Captain's spry for his age, but the peg leg slows him down to about average.
