DreadPirateRobertsA pirate of near-mythical reputation, the Dread Pirate Roberts is feared across the seven seas for his ruthlessness and sword fighting prowess, and is well known for taking no prisoners. It has become known with the passage of time that Roberts is not one man, but a series of individuals who pass the name and reputation to a chosen successor once they are wealthy enough to retire. When the time comes, "Roberts" and his chosen successor sail into port and discharge the crew. Then they hire a new crew, the ex-Roberts staying aboard as first mate and referring to his successor as "Captain Roberts". Once the crew grows accustomed to the new Roberts, the previous captain leaves to enjoy his retirement. The original Roberts, retired 15 years in Patagonia at the time Ryan picked Westley to be the next Dread Pirate Roberts.

Today, the Dread Pirate Roberts is thought to operate from a submarine, described by the occasional eyewitness as "a huge hodgepodge of Depression War era equipment, covered in moss... but faster than modern boats and quiet as a great whale". In addition to commerce raids, he has been known to attack small military vessels without provocation if they enter his Tirrenian Sea "turf", and all the Mediterranean navies have a bounty on his head. In the last few years, a number of data-heists committed against Papal banks have been "signed" by the Dread Pirate Roberts. |
