Fickle Fortune
The Fickle Fortune is a sloop captained by the famous pirate Faustino Halfbreeze. Faustino made a name for himself in his early days by using this small, fast ship to outmaneuver patrols and catch up to fleeing targets. Those caught could, at times, choose whether they wanted the "rose" or the "sword"--an easy surrender, or a fight to the death. Other times, their fate was left up to the Captain: thus the name.
