Advent Calendar – Day 18 – Running Aground

Hoist the colours high boys! We’ve got some wrestling to do…
Now take Cap’n Thath, everyone in Kaiser’s palace all despise him, but to the D8 he’s a hero and they idolise him.  It’s how you look at pirates that makes them bad or good and at D8 we’re all members of a devious brotherhood. You’ll all be thrilled to know our little pirate family is expanding as new wrestlers have run aground.

Would you like to meet some of them?

Pirate Deck Boss

The mightiest Gorilla to ever sail the seas is the Pirate Deck Boss. A hulking mass of hairy muscle (even more so than Sonja Proudbeard), the Deck Boss commands the ultimate respect of those serving beneath him. An imposing weight 3, you’ll have to watch out for his Silver Back Bellow and Gorilla Grip. He’s actually quite a nice guy to get along with really, just remember to only speak when spoken to unless you want to be on the receiving end of his Simeon spine breaker.

Ape Cook

There is always a place on the ship for a talented cook! Once a master rigging monkey, the Ape Cook was unfortunately injured during a casino raid on Gomorrah and lost his right leg as the result. Therefore, unable to run the rigging as he did before, this Mandrill has become a top chef. All kinds of meat is on his chopping block including his speciality, Blue Ringed Octopus.

Pirate Navigator


The Pirate Navigator is a master of the ring ropes! Due to her many years spent running ship’s rigging and hauling herself into the crows nest. She is extremely agile. Constantly receiving countless marriage proposals from infatuated fans, this elf turns them all down. For her, the only love in her life is the sea.

You’ll see the remaining two crew mates closer to release.
