Aetherion
Honorable Pirate
Disclaimer: This idea is for after full release, seeing the complexity of it all.
Note: This will be broken into multiple sections based on different aspects of the Island.
Storyline: Two Spanish warlords, vying for control of a massive gold vein located in the caves of island, curse each other before their simultaneous deaths in an (Explosion? Attack? Voodoo Stuff? You decide,) causing the two to come back, and fight the battle to the bitter, and not-soon-to-arrive end. You the pirate, stumble across this island during one of your treasure expeditions, and must now choose a side, and battle both undead Spanish conquistadors and enemy pirates who have chosen the opposite side.
Gameplay: Both factions have a fortress on opposite sides of the island, only accessible to the pirates of that faction. PvP will take place in "Sub-Zones" AKA whenever you enter a tunnel. There will be three zones, each with two faction expedition camps, and one objective to capture. PvP itself is simple to understand. The primary goal is to capture all three points. The rewards for each capture will be a custom currency used to purchase cosmetic items, for your pirate and your ship. Victory over the entire island will reward the entire faction with 25% gold and experience gains from all sources for 1 hour, after which the next battle for island supremacy will begin.
Additional Ideas: The island could be located beyond Ravens Cove, about a 3 minutes journey at full speed.
Players will only be able to access this questline at level 50, due to the high-intensity PvP aspect.
Pirates will transform into their skeletal forms due to the remnants of the aforementioned curse, and thus, guns will be useable.
Isla de la Guerra Eterna translates to "Island of the Eternal War" in Spanish.
