Team Jijsaw's entry in "A Pirate's Life" for the MocAthalon 2011: Somali pirates!
Captain Phillip "Twelve gun" Ziyad started piracy at an early age, downloading music and videos from illegal file-sharing sites, then quickly moved to material piracy and ultimately ended up stealing an entire ship, from which he commands a vast portion of the black market. He keeps his ship afloat several miles from shore in the Indian Ocean to avoid retaliatory action from rival pirates. He appreciates a large explosion as much as the next guy, so he keeps a large supply of Molotov cocktails, RPGs, and various other volatile substances on hand at all times.
