Buccaneer

Feared among all and the plague of the waters, pirates strike as a constant blight on voyagers, merchants, and soldiers alike. Most are commonly called by what they are: scoundrels, thieves, bandits, and more for good reason; being the apex predators of the sea and pillaging where they choose with nary a consequence blotting their conscience. Buccaneers are fighters at heart, using their cunning footwork to gain the upper hand, assisting allies with confident command, and regaining vigor throughout the fight. No one remains safe as long as a Buccaneer stands conscious.
