Line 206:
** AD&D2 got slightly different kits Pirate/Outlaw in ''The Complete Fighter's Handbook'', Buccaneer in ''The Complete Thief's Handbook'', Pirate in ''Player's Options''.
** 3.5 has a prestige class called Dread Pirate. The player must choose which of the two kinds of pirates he wishes to be; honorable pirates gain bonuses to two weapon fighting and inspiring allies, and dishonorable pirates gain sneak attack and intimidation bonuses.
* Dark Elves from ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]] Fantasy Battle'' on whom ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' Dark Eldar are based, are also largely pirates. They engage in piracy partly for the sake of survival (their homeland of Naggaroth has very little arable land, so they steal resources from other races and take them as slaves) and partly out of sheer malice for everyone else in the world.
* ''[[Exalted]]''; The Lintha. A family of terrifying, demon-descended, bloodline-obsessed, super-powerful buccaneers. Who make you eat your shipmates. They will normally leave a survivor - just one - to spread the tales of their viciousness and bloodlust.
* This is the [[Planet of Hats|hat]] of the Lhazaar Principalities in ''[[Eberron]]''. Numerous sources have noted that legitimate Lhazaarite merchantmen will not hesitate to engage in piracy if the opportunity arises or if they are down on their luck.
Line 235:
* In Chapter 4 of ''[[Eternal Sonata]]'', the ship you're on is attacked by the pirate ship Dolce. You confront her captain (and namesake), later fight her again, and may fight her yet again before the game is over. Additionally, there are pirates in the [[Bonus Dungeon|Mysterious Unison]].
* In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', you take on the animated skull of the infamous pirate Cortez. He's simultaneously parts 1 and 2: during the battle he devours half the audience; afterwards, he joins you, and Mario doesn't even blink at the recent mass murder.
** And earlier in the series, there was the shark pirates led by Jonathan Jones in ''[[Super Mario RPG]]: Legend of the Seven Stars''. He seems to be Type 1 at first, but after being [[Defeat Means Friendship|defeated]], he befriends Mario and company, freely giving them the star piece and then helping them to corner Yaridovich. There's also the occasional pirate enemies in other Mario games such as the Shy Guy Pirates in ''[[
* "Cap'n" Ginny of ''[[My Sims]]'' is obessed with pretending to be a pirate, and her best friend (boyfriend?) goes along with it. By ''[[My Sims]] Kingdom'', she's moved on to a new profession, but her old obsession is still referenced by Vic Vector when you give him a figurine of her.
* ''[[Tropico]] 2: Pirate Cove'' shows that it takes a '''lot''' of work to be a successful pirate lord, far more than just sailing the high seas to find victims or [[Buried Treasure]].
