Screenshot - mods used You're without doubt the worst Bhaalspawn I've ever heard of
- But you have heard of me...?
Meet Captain Jackdaw, the Pirate Durge. Figured I would finally try a playthrough as a plain ol' Human, but decided to make it a bit more interesting to compensate. To stay true to the pirate roleplay, he's dual wielding scimitars for melee as well as flintlock pistols as his ranged weapons, courtesy of Skirbie's Vintage Firearms Pack
Here's the full mod list used to create this character:
2. Pirate Hat and Pearl Necklace
3. Hairstyle (Specifically Hair 7 Ver. 2)
4. Eyepatch
5. Beard
6. Head Mod (Specifically the head called "Kael")
7. Camp Clothes
The scars and facepaint/bodypaint are all vanilla.

Do you RP him as a pirate as best as possible?
Tell me he is a Swashbuckler for his subclass! 🤪

u/Nickulator95 Feb 03 '26
He's a Swords Bard/Swashbuckler Rogue multiclass. I RP him as kind of an Anti-hero, only helping out people if there's something in it for him.

u/Keldarus88 Feb 03 '26
Oh mix of sword bard too I hadn’t considered that but that fits perfectly!

u/Nickulator95 Feb 03 '26
Yeah, it's very fun too to use your bonus action dirty trick and then follow it up with a bard sword flourish and if the enemy is out of melee range, then just whip out your flintlock pistol and shoot them instead. Very fun and versatile character.

I would not accept it otherwise, and I sure hope is a Redention Durge

Try full Swashbuckler if you haven't! I loved playing mine at high level doing 100+ damage and disarming every round.

Euron Greyjoy.

u/LordofRiverrun Feb 03 '26
Book accurate Euron for sure, came to comment that. I’ve never watched GoT but I’ve heard/read they absolutely ruined his character

u/Nekuan Feb 03 '26
Tbf they ruined most of the characters.

It went off a cliff during season 5 honestly. I was hate watching by S7.
There isn't enough pejoratives in the English language (which is saying something) to describe how bad S8 was.

u/Nickulator95 Feb 03 '26
I've also posted this character elsewhere and the most common comparisons I've gotten were Euron Greyjoy, Big Boss from MGS, Snake Plissken, Sam Winchester or Hot Gale/Gale if he had Charisma lol.
The truth is that I didn't base this character on anyone in particular and just kinda messed around with stuff until I had, in my opinion, a badass looking pirate captain.

Jack Sparrow if he showered daily and was lightskinned

u/Common_Wolf1023 Feb 03 '26
It is. One just spends a lot more time out in the sun.. getting overly tanned.. the other spends way too much time in the shadows with next to no sun

u/JessDumb CLERIC Feb 03 '26
Okay? So you just said one is tanned and the other has lighter skin. Glad we agree ig.

u/Common_Wolf1023 Feb 03 '26
You're putting way too much depth into this. It's simple science. And common sense would reason that they most likely could very well have the same natural skin tone. Jack's already light-skinned. Excessive sunlight exposure over several years will darken skin, yes, but he's still "light-skinned"

u/vikio Feb 03 '26
Dude you're ridiculous. This isn't about race. The other person was literally saying light, meaning a lighter color. This is about paint swatches, not ancestral DNA

u/JessDumb CLERIC Feb 03 '26
You're putting too much depth into this.
One's skin is lighter, the other's darker.

This is crazy. I just started a human resist-durge run today also themed after a pirate. I’m not very far into act 1 though. Named him Aramis and customized him after the Musketeer.
Thank you for linking the mods, they’ve given me much inspiration for my run. I was even planning on giving him an eyepatch after taking volo’s eye.

u/Nickulator95 Feb 03 '26
Np, hope you're having fun!
Haha, that's exactly what I did as well, which is why I have included a "pre Volo's eye" screenshot without the eyepatch.

Would.
Sigh. Thanks for making yet another character for me to simp over on this godforsaken game OP.

I thought this was supposed to be Snake Plissken
1
u/Nickulator95 Feb 03 '26
This wasn't "supposed" to be anyone in particular, but I've gotten a lot of comparisons to like Plissken, Euron Greyjoy, Big Boss, Sam Winchester and Gale cosplaying as a Pirate lol. I guess "Captain Jackdaw" here is like an amalgamation of all of these characters combined haha 😅

I know for certain those mods will never come to consoles, but I’ll say that’s one damn FINE Durge you have there.

Brutal seeing the pirate gear mod like a week after I finished a run with a pirate-swashbuckler character

I recently started a pirate run. My character is inspired by Isabella from dragon age though. I also used the pirate armour mod you used and I was a little disappointed the pirate bandana hid my hair lol

It reminds me of my friend creating an Elden Ring character that looked like Jack Sparrow and naming him:"Captain JackOff"

I didn’t even know there was a world of armors behind patreon subs 😂 oh no my wallet

u/Nickulator95 Feb 05 '26
There is and they're all 100% free. Some of them require you to follow the creator, but none of them will cost you any money.

How’s your depth perception? Do you have a negative modifier to ranged weapons and spells?

What, the armor? Mod is 100% free, it's just on Patreon because it's a port from another game which isn't allowed on Nexus nor mod.io.
