Public Statement
We are a crew focused on fun, pillaging, and helping you become the best pirate you can be. All of our officers are friendly and willing to field any questions you have, so don't hesitate to ask them!
Having fun on the open seas is of the utmost importance to us, so we try to take ships out often to help you earn PoE. Keep your eye on crew chat and feel free to participate. We are quickly growing into a large, well-functioning crew. If Fire and Rain sounds like something you'd like to be a part of, ask an officer to join today!
Promotion Requirements
We here at Fire and Rain like to keep some professionalism in our promotion procedures. You may find that it takes a bit longer to reach each rank here than it does in other crews; this is purposeful.
- Cabin Person: Any Pirate that requests full membership as long as they do so in Port.
- Pirate: Pillage with the crew at least once, this allows us to get to know you and see that you can follow orders and know enough basic pillaging etiquette to advance through the ranks.
- Midshipman: Have a decent gunning standing (Respected+) and prove that you are an upcoming leader by working hard on pillages and by helping crewmates. This position will be given Officer in order to help with recruiting and other duties but will be expected not to run pillages until promoted to full officer.
- Officer: Take and pass a Bnav test with one or more of the SOs/Captain. Prove you are able to successfully manage a pillage and win battles.
- Fleet Officer: Prove yourself to be an asset to the crew over time. It may take time for a successful officer to be promoted to the FO level, but if you're patient and consistently show us you're a strong, trustworthy leader, you'll earn this promotion. Master or above Gunning and B-Nav status is also highly recommended, but not as important as the above, more intangible qualities.
- Senior Officer: Senior Officers play a very important role in the crew. Not only do they run pillages like the other officers, they also shape crew policy by voting on issues. In order to become a SO you must be unanimously elected by the current SOs.
