Tortuga, otherwise called Isla Tortuga or officially known as Île de la Tortue after its French takeover, is an island in the Caribbean. Its name in both Spanish and French means "Turtle Island" or "Tortoise Island". It became a major center of piracy in the 17th century. Tortuga is located north of Hispaniola. The island appeared to be free of governing reach and was generally a lawless place, and one of the only places a pirate considered to be "free" with the expansion of the East India Trading Company. The Faithful Bride was a popular tavern on the island.
This forum is for drinking and discussing your successess and possible failures in your pirate life, general chit chat really, nothing that contradicts the Pirate Code though. The Faithful Bride will be available to chat in and buy your drinks, but feel free to create your own taverns.
