Public Statement

Welcome to the glorious Flag "Moonlighting!"

Moonlighting is here to first and foremost - have fun. We are always looking to expand out flag so, if you feel that your crew would fit in well with the mates in this flag, send a tell to the monarch, one of the royalty, or a titled member and tell them you are considering joining our flag.

We currently own Namath Island in the Jet Archipelago and Vernal Equinox in the Sapphire Archipelago. We are doing a lot of work building Vernal Equinox up and making a warm home, just like Namath has turned out to be.

We do frequent War Frig and War Brig pillages and bring lots of mates on board so, if you see one of our crews offering up jobs, take one. It's the easiest way to see what our flag is like.

If you do take a job on one of our crews' ships and would like to become a permanent member, please ask. All of our crews are looking for good Pirates.

One other item. If for some reason you find a large group of pirates all wearing lime, you'll know you're home.

Yer Kind and fair ruler,

Mordrid.

Leadership

Monarch

The Monarch, Mordrid, is the main leader of the flag.

History

Moonlighting started from a sole crew, Moonlit Wake, after they split from the Great Imperio-Avalon divide. They wanted to remain neutral until the heat blew down and then decide who to side with. In the end they allied with Avalon. With that they had Kings, in order, Sinderam, Aiders (Briefly), Shustrik, Mordrid, Dreadful with the crown returning to Mordrid upon Dreadful's retirement from piratey life.

Moonlighting wasn't a big flag with any ambitions besides having fun but after a couple months during the Shurstrik/Mordrid regimes they set their goals for an island, particularly colonizing an island. After recruiting some new crews and gaining some strong allies they successfully blockaded Namath when it was opened. After that their main goal was to build up Namath and take another island afterwords, which they did when Vernal Equinox was opened. Moonlighting is now the biggest flag with over 400 members in the ocean and the most Famous with top Illustrious.
