As such? No. The Sailor package deal in Pulp Hero includes perfectly good skill choices for a 1920s/1930s pirate' date=' though. (I don't see much that couldn't be used or slightly adapted for the modern day, either.)[/quote']

 

Thanks for the heads up, unfortunatly I don't own Pulp Hero (yet)

Re: Pirates

 

A couple of advantages used in "7th Sea" : "Able Drinker" and "Cast Iron Stomach" could be useful, as might skills such as "sailmaker"(or "sewing") and "off hand weapon fighting". A well known pirate or the member of the crew of a famous pirate ship might have "reputaion:bloodthirsty brigand" or something similar. Also the disadvantage "Hunted by Navy "(Spain, Britain, France, whoever seems appropriate).
