[quote=@rush99999] I was wondering, do the pirates of Keratia use the Black Spot or some other kind of symbol to convey death threats to those who incur their wrath? [/quote] I feel like I answered this question before, but no not usually. Might be one or two pirates that have a sort of signature style of showing their dislike or hatred against someone, but nothing common enough that every pirate would know the meaning if they see it. The closest thing to a Black Spot that most pirates would understand would actually be doled out by the Thieves Guild or their regional equivalent which is the Non Grata. Basically means that even thieves, smugglers, criminals, and other low lives and scums don't want to associate with these particular pirates, so they're outlaws even among outlaws. Again this is mostly doled out by thieves guilds and not pirates themselves, but it's not impossible for a particularly powerful pirate with strong connections to send a message to his rivals or enemies that certain waters are no longer going to be friendly to them.

Hentai has a funny way of finding great bits of literary treasures of which I plunder for my own ends.
