Lord Ned Edgewalker
Im Ned Edgewalker, Lord of the Windward Passage. Im honored to be in this court, as it is the 2nd court in a row ive been in. I hope to help the future of Pirates, and for the generations to grow. Tis Be a Pirates life for me. Savvy?

Lord Jim Logan
- Hey, I am Pirate Lord Captain Jim Logan. I hope to assist the next generation into making POTCO and the Wiki into a much better place then it is now, or in the past. I have a lot of experience with the Brethen Court, being a Lord in my brother's court, and ally of the 5th Brethren Court and King of the 6th Brethren Court

Lord Richard Cannonwalker
Ahoy, I am Richard Ulysses Cannonwalker. I am the Pirate Governor of Padres Del Fuego, the island where the 8th Court bases their operations from. On top of that, i'm also Lord of the Hinterseas, the ocean surrounding the island. Although I have no experience in terms of time in the Court before the 8th, I hope to help the future generations of pirates in the Caribbean and the Wiki.

Lord David McMartin
David McMartin was born on Tortuga. His mother was killed when he was very young, and his father ran off to join the British Navy. This left David and his brother, Johnathon, to fend for themselves. They were very poor, but a friend of their parents, Harold Griggle, took them in. He trained them how to handle a sword, a gun, and a grenade.

As David got older, he decided it was time he set out to find his real father. One day he left without saying a word to his brother or Harold. David have many adventures, but had soon found the sad truth that his father had become a pirate hunter. David returned home only to find that Harold had died of a disease and that Johnathon, David's brother, had ran off to find David. David soon found out that his brother was captured and sentenced to execution.

David attempted to rescue his brother, but ended up being confronted by his father, who assumed he had become a pirate, and was forced to hunt him down. David ultimately killed his father, and soon rescued his brother. As they both set out as wanted men, they decided it was time to fully dedicate their lives to piracy. They soon split apart, and David was left alone. After a while, his name began to get passed around the Seven Seas, and soon enough, he was met by Ned Edgewalker, a pirate lord.

Ned offered David a seat in the 7th Brethren Court, and he gladly accepted. David was officially a Pirate lord. He befriended the other pirate lords, such as Jarod, Sharple, Johnny, and others. Then, the 8th Brethren Court was created, and David moved forth with a new era of pirate lords.

Lord Edgar Wildrat
I'm Edgar Wildrat, I've been many things. I'm honored to be allowed into the court by the other Lords as this is my first time. I have been playing POTCO during the time that Founders were being accepted (I didnt purchase unlimted access during that time, so I lucked out). After playing the game and having many ineresting experiences, after reaching level 50 I stopped playing for a while. Now I'm back, in a time of need, eager to set bring calm winds ahead and peace to the Carribean. I'm also lord of Dead Mans Trough an isolated ocean from the rest.

Lord Charles Crestsilver
I'm Charles Crestsilver. As a child growing up in France, I was dragged into the French and Indian War at a young age. As an attempt for my father and I to avoid this, we sailed away on a merchant ship to the Caribbean (more specifially to Tortuga to visit family). Unfortunately, some clueless Navy marines saw our French flag and thought we were enemies. They ended up not only destroying their own supplies, but killing my parents in the crash. The ship is still on Driftwood Island today. I joined their ranks, but was criticized constantly due to my French lineage. Eventually, I decided to join up with my pirate family here in te Caribbean. They helped me get wiser and stronger. I ended up creating a guild and an army to exact revenge on the Navy for killing my parents. However, before any big accomplishments happened, I decided to use my guild for peace and not war. I have made temporary (maybe permanent) peace with the Navy. I am hoping to be accepted into later Brethren Courts so I can make the Caribbean a better place for all to enjoy.

Lord Johnny Sea Slasher
To be added soon

Lord Christopher Crane
I am Christopher Crane. Born in England to an English Lord and a freed slave, I was trained to use weapons at an early age. Due to a financial crisis in the family, my father resorted to raiding, a practice I aided him in along with my siblings. This eventually led to the deaths of my parents and me narrowly escaping along with my siblings. With that, we took to piracy, and as of right now I am the only surviving member of my family, having carried on my life with the power of cursed Aztec gold, making me immortal. I have worked up a reputation for myself, from a Spanish Lord exiled for failure to acquire a powerful sword, a popular mercenary, the leader of a grand military guild, a powerful voodoo practitioner, to the leader of a worldwide cult. A skilled assassin, resourceful leader, and fluent speaker, I will aid the Court in its goals.
