The following is a brief summary and an explanation of what requirements you need to meet in order to get the event to fire. Further details are provided but they contain spoilers. Don't read them unless you really want to know exactly what happens in the event.

Summary:

Event #1 in the A Pirate's Life event chain.

A colorful character messages the Argo with an interesting offer.

Event Trigger Requirements:

  • Reputation with Pirates 75 or higher

Event Details:


WARNING: SPOILERS

Darius calls you to the command center, where he has a message from one of your pirate contacts pulled up. Apparently, your contact has a proposal for you:

Greetin's Commander,

On occasion, in the course of doing business, I come privy to certain knowledge and opportunities. Opportunities which, me and mine bein' the well-known rabblerousers and buckleswashers we are, be not in a position to take advantage of. But you and yours, what with bein' all "registered" and "licensed" and "whatnot" with the veneer o' civilization an' legitimatism, could do. If'n yer interested, give us a nod or a wink an' we'll surely keep you apprised when choice chances do occur. Mind, if'n we come to ye with a job, ye best be takin' it or we'll find some other outfit fit for the task.

-D.P. Roberts

"Darius? Mind translating? Their speech-to-text software must hate them... no-one actually writes like that, do they?"

"Commander, I think what they're saying is that they'll contact us with special jobs if we agree, but they'll be upset if they bring us a contract and we don't take it."



SERIOUSLY, MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD. CLICK HERE FOR FULL BREAKDOWN OF EVENT OPTIONS

Option A - "Agree to receive special contracts from Roberts":

A few hours after agreeing to Roberts' proposal, Darius meets you with an update.

"Commander, our contact Roberts is basically the 2IC for the Band of the Damned under Vance Rezak. Rezak is famous for his spy network, and the Band is perfectly capable of running these jobs themselves. If Roberts is going behind Rezak and the rest of the Band, there's definitely something else going on here. Could be dangerous."

"Where there's danger, there's opportunity. We'll be careful."

Result:

  • Roberts will contact you later with special contracts

Note:

Option B - "Turn down Roberts' offer":

"Darius, we've done some jobs over the years that I'm not proud of, but I don't think we should jump into bed with this Roberts character."

"Understood Commander. You know, Roberts is basically the 2IC for the Band of the Damned under Vance Rezak. We don't have much on them, but the Damned have been raiding the Draconis Combine for years. I bet the DCMS would appreciate it if we quietly forwarded this information to them."

"Do it, XO."

Result:
