Basic:Creating a Character

Creating a character for Pirate101 takes place at the start of the in-game tutorial. BoochBeard and Mr. Gandry come to break you out of the brig and in determining whether you are the pirate they are looking for ask a series of questions tied to who you are. Be sure about your choices, as they can never be changed. Note: Questions 2, 3, and 4 can be skipped and the results manually chosen by clicking Skip in the top right.

Gender

In selecting whether you are a boy or a girl, you get a randomly generated pirate character. You will get to specifically choose your appearance later (see below). However, if you really don't like the random appearance, click on 'Boy' or 'Girl' again to change the appearance as many times as you want.

Name

Next you get to select your name. You can generate a name by picking from three lists: adjective, first name, and last name. You have to have a first name, but the other two can be blank. See Character Names for a full list of options.

How'd You Lose Your Parents?

This question determines which Companion later joins your crew. This companion will be your fourth in game and you find them while raiding The Presidio for the quest Quit Pro Quo.

Orphaned By Mutiny! Shipwrecked! Armada! Storm! Squid Attack!

Companions Dead Mike (Undead Pirate) Lucky Jack Russel (Dog Pirate) Gaspard De Vole (Guinea Pig Guard) Milo Graytail (Rat Brigand) Birgus Latro (Crab Thug)

Flag

If at any time during your adventures in Pirate101 you would like to modify your Flag/Ship Emblem, you can visit Major Flagstaff in the Skull Island Bazaar and pay a fee of 100 Crowns to make changes to the Color, Decal, or Field of your Flag.

Starting Play

After creating your Pirate, you have the option as to complete the Tutorial, which goes over the basics of gameplay, or skip it. Either option will land you in Captain Avery's Office for the start of your pirating adventures.

Your newly created Pirate will be visible on the Character Selection Screen with any other characters you have created. Each time you play, you choose which Pirate to adventure with by clicking them on this screen.
