Summary[edit | edit source]
Ramsey Singh is one of the first pirates to plunder the Sea of Thieves. Realizing that incoming pirates would be subject to the curses in the lands' treasures, he created protective chests from the chains of the Old Mother. For a time, he solely possessed the required skeleton keys to open chests.
He remains in the Sea of Thieves as a ghost aboard Athena's Fortune, along with what's left of his crew.

During the Maiden Voyage[edit | edit source]
Pirate Lord
Entrance
You look a little worse for wear, my friend. You must be on quite the journey.
I should eat something, if I were you. A full belly can do wonders for your spirits.
Once you’re in good health, we’ll speak properly.After eating the Banana
There, you look better already. Maybe even strong enough to reach the Sea of Thieves.
These days they call me The Pirate Lord, but back when I discovered this place I was just a bold explorer like you.
I dreamt of finding uncharted waters filled with treasures and rife with danger, where every sunrise brought a new adventure…
You’ve been brave to make it this far. Not many do. Now you’ve one last crossing to make.
You’ll want some trusty steel at your side, though. There’s a sword in those trees whose owner doesn’t seem to need it any more.After receiving the Cutlass
There’s far more to being a pirate than a blade in your hand and a love of other people’s money.
It’s about finding your way through ancient caverns by lamplight, digging up long-lost treasures…
… and raising a frothing great tankard of grog when you live to tell the tale!
For all of that, you’ll need the right equipment. You can start by taking this old shovel.After taking the Shovel
I stowed a few belongings around here back in the day. The map will show you the way.
After giving the Old Sailor’s Chest to the Pirate Lord
Ah, my old chest! Let’s see if she still hides her secrets.
After switching to the Flintlock
A fine weapon. She’ll serve you well out there.
After you are done with your Equipment
There! Now you look like a true pirate.
There’s plenty more to see, so why not stretch your legs and explore? I’ll be here when you’re ready to leave.Once you are ready to leave
Well now, I’d say you’re as ready as you’ll ever be for what’s ahead.
Allow me to show you the path…
The Shroud is beginning to part, but you have one more task before your journey continues.
You may be ready to sail, but your ship still needs repairs. Go, and tend to her wounds!
At Athena's Fortune Hideout[edit | edit source]
The Pirate Lord was given new dialogue in 2.0.10. His new dialogue is more humble, and adds references the Maiden Voyage, and to his children, DeMarco and Lesedi.
We meet again! Welcome to Athena's Fortune - my tavern, where true Pirate Legends meet to swap stories and to trade in the finest goods of all.
- You say we've met before?
That's right, near the end of the journey to reach Sea of Thieves. You've come a long way since that first encounter. As I told you back then, when I found that place I was just Ramsey, a humble explorer. Nowadays... well, I'd say my reputation speaks for itself! If you're standing here, you must have built up quite a reputation of your own. Feel free to grab a grog and look around. You've earned it.
- What is this place - grog-house or a galleon?
Why not both? That was my plan when I built the place, to combine the two greatest loved in a pirate's heart. Once this was the Athena's Fortune, the flagship of the Pirate Lord and his alliance. Nowadays it's an exclusive tavern for those who are worthy. My son and daughter have taken it upon themselves to build a home, too. They're hardly ever away from that new arena of theirs. There'll be a place for them here at my table, when they're ready. I've got a lot of fatherly wisdom saved up for them.
- If I'm here, does that mean my journeys over?
Nothing could be further from the truth! In some ways this is only the beginning of your adventure. I offer special voyages that only the bravest, most skillful pirates are fit to undertake. Succeed, and more rewards will be yours for the taking. Besides, that's the beauty of this life. Just when you think you'll seen it all, something strange and unexpected sails over the horizon. One day, we may meet something only Pirate Legends can handle. Until then, keep your sword sharp - and your wits sharper.
At Athena's Fortune Hideout (Old)[edit | edit source]
Before 2.0.10, The Pirate Lord spoke with more ego and mystery, claiming to not having had a name beyond "Pirate Lord".
Avast there! You are speaking with the Pirate Lord, master of the seas and known to all!
- Pirate Lord? Can't say I've heard of you. What's your story?
Never heard of me? Impossible!
Everyone knows that me and my trusty crew were the first legends within the Sea of Thieves!
We thieved all the best treasures, plundered all the richest prizes! I'm surprised there's anything left!
It all came to an end when some of my hearties turned into those foul Skeletons, but I'm trying to forget about that...- As Pirate Lord, what do you actually do around here?
I keep a watchful eye on the seas to ensure good honest pirating is upheld.
I'm also launching my "Like The Pirate Lord' business, giving lucky pirates everywhere the chance to be like me.
There's a jolly range of clothing, a recipe cookbook and a selection of grog scented candles.
I'm even thinking of recording some shanties with those scurvy Skullduggers.
Can I interest you in a franchise opportunity?- Have you got a real name, Mr. Pirate Lord?
No, certainly not. NEVER had one, NEVER WILL!
Which dirty rat told you I had a real name? WHO?
I've ALWAYS been the Pirate Lord. ALWAYS WILL BE!
ANYONE that tells you differently will suffer my lordly wrath!
