About the adventure

"Heaven, you fool? Did you ever hear of any pirates going thither? Give me hell, it’s a merrier place." ⚔️​ Unsheathe your cutlass and crack some skulls! 🌴​ Delve into the darkest jungles. 🍺​ Revel in grog, booty, and adventure! ☠️​ Be a pirate at the End of Days! Avast ye landlubbers! Be ye darin' pirates? Do ye lust fer booty, grog an' adventure? Do ye laugh in the face of death? Come to the Tropics, where the days be dangerous and the nights be dark and full of terrors! Have a pint, a fight, and a terrible curse cast upon ye. Sing shanties with drunken hearties, face the Scourge of the undead, and be ready to meet yer end in Davy Jones' Locker! There will ne'er be a better time to be a pirate than the end o' days, don't ye reckon? Remember: it's better to swim in the sea below than to swing in the air an' feed the crow! ________________________________ Come visit the Dark Caribbeans in this short adventure! Grab a pirate, or create one with a single click, and get ready to dive into a crazy, over-the-top, swashbuckling romp through the Tropics! Naval combat, undead pirates, forgotten caves, and seedy taverns are waiting for you! We will be playing Trapped in the Tropics, one of the official starting adventures for the game, in which you'll get to experience everything Pirate Borg has to offer. And who knows, if you like it, we might even decide to go on into a longer adventure on the 7 seas!

About me

Step into Khitan’s Crossing. I’m GM Khitan, and at my table, every decision matters and every character leaves a mark on the world. Here, your choices shape the story, your relationships evolve naturally, and the narrative responds to the paths you take. Adventures unfold in rich, immersive worlds, full of meaningful dilemmas, unexpected turns, and moments that stay with you long after the session ends. Every session is a chance to explore, to test your character, and to dive into stories that are as dynamic and alive as the players at the table. I focus on crafting experiences where your creativity drives the journey, your roleplay shapes the narrative, and your character’s growth is central. Take a seat at the Crossing — your story begins now, and the path is yours to shape.

Character creation

Creating your character

You can grab one of the pre-generated characters or create you own, either manually or with the simple click of a button! Will you be an angry brute with a broken mast as a weapon, a daring swashbuckler with a tongue sharper than the sword, or an eldritch sorcerer that sees beyond reality? Either way, you'll be able to sail the dark seas in no time!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

First and foremost, be ready to dive into the Dark Caribbeans and prepare to die. No seriously... be ready to die. It's very easy. Aside from that, you'll need a microphone, a computer, an internet connection, a free Sqyre account (the platform we will be using to host Foundry), and a Discord account. Don't worry about the rules, I'll teach you, and you'll be ready to play in the blink of an eye! Oh right... and you should be willing to play and have great fun! I like to have video when we play, so a webcam is welcome, but it's not mandatory. If you prefer to play with just audio, we'll enjoy your beautiful voice!

Safety

How GM Khitan creates a safe table

Pirate Borg is a rules-light, fun-heavy game, about being a greedy, filthy, scoundrel. In this short adventure, you'll get to play as pirates in the Dark Caribbeans, a cursed archipelago where the dead walk among the living and your life is worth as much as you can plunder! There are no heroes in Pirate Borg. It's a violent and deadly rush through a world of darkness and humor. There will be gore, carnage, and monsters but they will be counterpoised by humor and wacky action. It's not a game for the faint of heart, but it's certainly a FUN game. Here's a sneak peek of what's waiting for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdCYZQcx2Qw We will use safety tools, and lines and veils will be set to ensure that everyone is comfortable with the game. During session 0 will go over rules, setting, lines and veils, and characters, but don't worry: we'll also get right into the action! Pirate Borg is an incredibly easy game to learn. Get ready to sail the Dark Seas!
