 Crew Info

Sticky Fingers is a crew operating on the Emerald Ocean known for its relentless event schedule, social culture, and its long-standing (and unquestioned) leadership under the captain Shar.
Overview
Sticky Fingers is one of the most socially active crews on the Emerald Ocean. Its members are rarely seen idle, largely because there is almost always an event happening somewhere. When there is not an event, one tends to appear shortly afterward.
Common crew activities include:
Kraken Hunt (KH) Greedy bashing Cursed Isles (CI) Dock tarting Pillaging
The Rule of Shar
Shar has served as the crew’s captain for much of its existence and is widely credited with turning Sticky Fingers into a nonstop event machine. Her leadership style has been described as energetic and dedicated.
Crew historians have observed several recurring patterns:
Events are frequent. Promotions are frequent. The dock population increases when Shar logs in.
Despite her firm grip on leadership, Shar is known to occasionally relinquish the captain title when leaving for vacation. This is usually temporary and widely understood as a ceremonial gesture, as the leadership tends to return to her shortly after she reappears.
Among crew members this phenomenon is often referred to as the Vacation Regency.
The Quiet Control of Cryo
While never formally declared, Sticky Fingers is believed to exert considerable influence over the island of Cryo. Rather than traditional political control, the crew maintains its presence through the Event Blockade Strategy, a system in which Cryo is kept so busy with pirate activity that no one has time to question who is actually in charge.
Critics argue that the constant events function as a form of cheerful tyranny. Supporters argue that the battles are a perfectly acceptable form of governance.
Crew Culture
Sticky Fingers has a reputation for being social and active. Large groups of pirates from the crew can often be found gathered on docks across the ocean, frequently engaging in the time-honored tradition of dock tarting.
Dock tarting generally involves:
Wearing flamboyant pirate outfits Standing in dramatic formations Attempting to look mysterious Waiting for something exciting to happen
The crew is also heavily involved in cooperative monster hunting and group events, often organizing ships on short notice.
