Deep Skulls

Also known as the Pirate Kings, Sea Reapers, Quer'ta Sovereigns, searching for fame, wealth & power.
Their goals are to seek true freedom beyond the constraints of traditional kingdoms and empires, amassing wealth, power, and influence both on sea and land. They aim to dominate the seas with their formidable naval prowess and extend their control over strategic coastal territories.
Founded during the height of the pirate era, the Deep Skulls quickly rose to infamy as one of the most feared pirate crews in the southern and northern seas. Initially driven by a quest for unrestrained freedom, they attracted some of the most powerful mages and non-mages alike. Their leader's unmatched charisma and tactical genius eventually led him to be crowned as the king of pirates. Establishing their stronghold in Quer'ta, he declared it an independent nation governed by pirates. Over time, their influence expanded inland where their reputation for ruthlessness ensured compliance from even land-based kingdoms.
The island fortress of Quer'ta serves as their impregnable headquarters. Surrounded by treacherous reefs and enchanted waters that deter unwelcome visitors, it is a haven for those loyal to the Deep Skulls. The fortress itself is a marvel of arcane engineering combined with robust medieval craftsmanship – towering walls imbued with protective spells, hidden coves for docking ships undetected, and grand halls where strategies are devised under flickering torchlight.
