A '''shack''' is a type of [[house]]. A pirate's first shack is free and located on their [[home]] [[island]]. Subsequent ones cost 1250 [[PoE]] each, but if at any stage a pirate has no shacks he or she may claim one for free again. Similarly, the first shack a pirate returns will not grant any money back, but subsequent shacks returned will grant that pirate 625 PoE per shack.

New pirates have a [[mission]] to "Get Loot for yer home!" which presents the pirate with a free bedroll and slatted crate and the message: ''Here's some [[furniture]] to get you started.  Check the text in the 'Ahoy' tab to learn how to arrange furniture.''  Also, new pirates recieve a rat with the message: ''A little rat has scurried into the house.  You can pick it up and take it with ye or equip it to have it follow ye. [[Pets]] which are following ye will not show up in some scenes but will reappear when ye return to your house and other scenes which allow pets.''
