Party Characters

A Pryce in Blood is suitable for 8 guests (or 8 teams), including the host or hostess. The available characters include:
  • Olde Lucky, Aging Pirate: Olde Lucky has been a pirate for forty years. He’s seen a lot of action and is missing the body parts to show it. He may be going a little senile.
  • Master Luftinant, Former Naval Officer: Once an officer in the Royal Navy, Master Luftinant became a pirate after a mutiny gone awry. He still maintains a certain military stiffness.
  • Celine du Nuit, French Exile: Celine is a French deportee and the widow of legendary buccaneer Philippe de Berry. She uses a falsely naïve demeanor to catch her enemies off guard.
  • Orphan Ollie, Cabin Boy: After losing his parents, Orphan Ollie stowed away on a merchant ship, which was subsequently captured by Captain Pryce and his crew. At only eleven years old, he is a master pickpocket.
  • Ramsay Prescott, Former Privateer: Ramsay Prescott was once a crewmember on a privateering vessel, but he opted for a life of piracy after discovering the much more equitable distribution of loot amongst pirates. He always wants his fair share.
  • Estella Buckham, Swashbuckling Beauty: Estella grew up in Charles Town but left home in her teens. She is quick-witted, hotheaded, and masterful with the sword.
  • Sidney Sheffield, Young Aristocrat: Sidney Sheffield is the child of Baron Sheffield. Shirking noble duty, Sidney left home in search of adventure but has not yet learned how to fit in amongst pirates.
  • Sawin’ Sister Sarah, Ship Doctor: Sarah was the mender of wounds, letter of blood, extractor of teeth, and remover of limbs on board the Retribution. She may also be a witch.
