Jolly Roger

At times a Captain wishes to maintain anonymity when committing acts of piracy against certain factions or in certain waters. Disguises will be worn and the ship's name hidden and when raising colours the crew will fly the Jolly Roger.

The Jolly Roger, a white skull and crossed bones on a black field, is the flag of the anonymous pirate. The colours tell the pirate's victims that this is a pirate ship that seeks to take them as a prize but it gives no hint as to which Captain or crew pursues them.
