The Pirate Code
The pirate Code.
Rule 1: Befriend others wisely!
2. All adherents of the Code pledge to be bound together as a society of pirates, sharing alike in one's fortunes and troubles. Every member shall have an equal share of the provisions. Every pirate shall obey the Code. Anyone who fails shall be punished by the Bosun.
3. Any pirate who has suffered an injury from pillaging, plundering, hijacking, swashbuckling, or other pirate duties shall receive compensation for the wound from common stock. Compensation shall be as follows, in credits:
• Loss of right arm: 800
• Loss of left arm: 750
• Loss of right leg: 500
• Loss of left leg: 400
• Fight wound: 100
• Loss of eye: 200
• Loss of ear: 30
• Loss of finger: 100
• Trigger finger: 200
• Pinky finger: Life be cruel, mate
• Head: A dead man not be needin' his money.
4. In the event of the loss of a limb, the surgeon or carpenter may be able to restore lost appendages with what is best suited. If injury is dehabilitating to the point of preventing a pirate from performing his duties as an able-bodied pirate, the quartermaster will provide a new assignment. Replacement limbs lost on duty should be compensated at no less than half-cost of natural limbs.
5. No pirate shall strike another while onboard the ship nor in our Tatooine compound, unless defending. In the event of the quarrel, it shall be resolved by a blaster, knives, or fists. If the sides won’t agree on a weapon – Captain or Officers are to decide. Limbs or other body parts lost in duel are not to be compensated as those lost in battle.
6. All workers shall have their one day of rest from service. Any other day, workers shall be granted leisure time only by favour of the captain or madame.
7. If a pirate is captured by an enemy ship, he has the right to declare PARLAY, or temporary protection, until he may have an audience with the enemy captain. At this point, he cannot be harmed. Parlay is not considered concluded until said captives and captains have completed negotiations.
8. Ten shares for the treasury. The captain shall have two shares of a prize. The officers and mates shall have one and half of share. All others shall have one share each. Crewworkers who ain’t fighting would receive half of a share. The company may vote to temporarily withhold the cook's share should his food kill a shipmate.
9. If any Man shall steal anything in the the value of a credit, he shall be punished by a bosun or shot. Damaging Mate's equipment or properties shall be considered stealing, unless property's owner accepts credits as a compensation.
10. One who disobeyes order in a time 'o th' battle shall be punished by th' bosun or shot.
11. Any pirate refusing to fight in a time of battle, will be punished by bosun or shot.
12. Captain's quarters be off-limits unless called.
13. Good quarters to be given when craved.
14. One falling behind should be left behind.
15. Take what you can, give nothing back.
16. Mutineers will hang!
