I post it in the quest submissions section, because it's basically a quest.
The event starts at Judy the event girl in Zant... (of course, where else it would start...)
The event starts with a Treasure Map! Judy gives a Treasure Map to the players... which leads them to a hidden area in Kenji Beach. Where they find nothin', but a Message in a Bottle!
The message in the bottle:
This is a very old letter... and as it is "Talk like a pirate event"... the letter is written in pirate language!
"Dear ol' Captain Ruven...
I be writin' this letter to ye, because of an urgent trouble.
We ben sailin' in th' South Sea when we be attacked by pirates! Pirates! Our very own kind be attackin' us!
This betrayal must not be tolerated, we must act!
-Captain Bruise"
The letter was written very long time ago when Dread Captain Bruise and Ruven weren't enemies and Bruise didn't have the Blinding Mist yet. Anyway, the letter has to be shown to Ruven!
(While we are it... I think Captain Ruven should get a new model... a model that looks more like a pirate... Yarrgh!!)
The second part of the event starts at Captain Ruven... that pirate bastard in Junon Polis!
He says something like this: (Pirate talk translator is EPIC!) xD
"Errr... This be written by that son of a biscuit eater Bruise! I be glad he port Junon an' sailed' t' Orlo wi' his rusty airship...
What be this? Sea dogs? This must be about them lily livered Kenji Sea dogs! Arrghh!
They gave us a lot o' troubles lately an' I`d be glad t' be rid o' them!"
Anyway... Captain Ruven gives a quest to go to Kenji Beach and hunt down the Kenji Pirates (event NPC's). The player must return to Ruven with 15 Kenji Hooks!
The player receives a box of Pirate Hooks from Ruven as reward. (which contains various pirate hooks)
The third part of the event is also started by Ruven. The spies of Ruven reported that a number of Kenji Pirates hide on the Dolphin Island!
Ruven says it this way!
"My spies be tellin' me that some o' th' Kenji Pirates hide on th' Dolphin Isle, arrr.
Will ye go thar an' hunt them traitors? I`d be happy if ye brought aft some o' the'r precious hats!"
So the task is given! The hidout of them traitors is known! The players has to go to Dolphin Island and return with 15 Kenji Pirate Hats!
The reward for completing this part of the quest is a box of Pirate Hats. (which contains various pirate hats)
The fourth part of the event leads back to where it all began... The Adventurer's Plains! The hideout of the Vicous Captain of the Kenji Pirates has been found!
Ruven says:
"One more thin' be left. Captain Jack th' captain o' th' Kenji Pirates be hidin' in th' Adventurer`s Plains!
If he be dead our troubles with him an' his crew be gone fer ever!"
The captain's last known location is in the Adventurer's Plains... Captain Ruven wants his pirate patch!
The reward for this quest is a box of Pirate Patches. (which contains Pirate Patch of various colors)
After completing all three quests given by Captain Ruven, the player has to go back to Judy in Zant.
When this part of the quest is completed a repeatable quest becomes available from Judy.
This repeatable quest sends the player to Sunshine Coast which apparently was invaded by the remaining Kenji Pirates. The player has to kill 50 of them, then return to Judy.
The reward for the repeatable quest is a Pirate Treasure Box (the one dropped by the bugs in the last event). Which contains either Pirate Hat, Pirate Hook, or Pirate Patch and maybe some other interesting treasure... Who knows?
Or maybe not the Pirate Treasure Chests. (See it in the Updates)
UPDATE 1:
Considering that the pirate event items were very rare in the past events, I would like to change the repeatable quest idea to not destroy this raritiy completely with the following addition to my suggestion:
Sunshine Coast Pirate Invasion
Captain Jack was not the only trouble maker on the seas of Junon. Dread Admiral Whitebeard and his crew invaded the peaceful Sunshine Coast.
Judy has started to recruit visitors to help in the defense of the Sunshine Coast! Admiral Whitebeard and his crew must not reach Zant!
Admiral Whitebeard should be the EVENT BOSSof this event. He should spawn on the beach after killing a certain amount of Pirates.
He is very tough, so many visitors will be needed to defeat him! Upon death, he drops the Pirate Treasure Chests and many other shiny stuff!
UPDATE 2:
Kaminichuan gave me another idea. Perhaps the boss I mentioned in the previous update could be in a party instance.
The instance could be a giant Pirate Ship where players have to defeat some pirates and the Admiral, the Admiral should only be defeated by a full party!
The difficulty of the admiral should be based on the level of the party.
In order to get to the pirate ship the players first have to collect some Teleport Stones from the invaders in Sunshine Coast.
After getting enough Teleport Stones the party has to talk to the event girl Judy, and she will teleport the party to the Ship.
Keep the ideas coming!
