Description
Pirate Isles is a roleplaying persistent world, set in the Sea of Fallen Stars in the Forgotten Realms. The server is spread over various pirate isles and allows travel by ship from isle to isle.
Leveling is slow-paced, to emphasize character development. The world of Pirate Isles features an impressive variety and quantity of areas for characters up to level 15, and it is expanding all the time.
Sunken sea wrecks and underwater sea caves, amongst other undersea locations, are available for exploration. A goal is to feature rarely-seen CEP content and custom creatures like xvarts and dragon turtles.
Pirate Isles has its own custom crafting system, which is based on the craft armor, craft weapon, lore (for alchemy) and spellcraft (for enchanting) skills. There are over fifty recipes currently and more are being added on a consistent basis.
The server offers a custom underwater combat system (based on pencil-and-paper underwater rules), which encourages variety in weapon and armor choice (a huge greatsword is hard to swing underwater).
To offer further variety,
Pirate Isles has a new post-spawn modification system that grants creatures dynamic bonuses to ensure combat is not the same twice.
