Yarrrr matey, it be Pirates’ Day!

• On September 19th only commoners wearing pirate garb have appeared in all the world’s cities with the news that the Dread Captain DeMeza and her crew have landed in Booty Bay and declared it Pirates’ Day! If you are brave enough to share a drink with her, you may have what it takes to become an honorary crew member for the day.

• Players will see Commoners appear in capital cities. Talking to them will get a response of “The Dread Captain DeMeza has pulled into Booty Bay and declared it Pirate’s Day! She’s making anyone who’s brave enough to share a drink with her an honorary crew member.”

• The commoner also offers the option “I’d like to dress like a pirate”. Clicking that will buff the player with Corsair’s Costume, which lasts for one hour. However, visiting and sharing a drink with DeMeza will give you the Dread Corsair buff, which lasts for 12 hours, and persists through death (although it will be lost after shapeshifting). These buffs are unique in that player characters’ sex and race are preserved by the illusion (although the details change, such as hair color), with the addition of pirate clothes. This allows you to use flight paths and mounts with the costume; you can receive the Corsair’s Costume buff while mounted.

Achievement
