Corsairs of Umbar
From t2twiki
The founding charter for the Corsairs of Umbar guild
"Before the fleet of Umbar set sail towards Minas Tirith, the Ship King selected a crew to man a warship and stealthily sail to Minas Tirith, where its goal would be to infiltrate it, making it an easier war for the main fleet. The crew was an elite group, chosen from the descendants of Castamir and those who relocated to Umbar after the Kin Strife. Sauron knew well that these men were allies of him, not slaves, but loyalty was not an issue, at least as long as their common goal was the destruction of Gondor. Nothing could match their hatred of Gondor."
The crew of the great warship Bethagan consists of a Ship-Captain, (the guildmaster), a First-Mate (AGM), the heads of three groups, their quartermasters, and the crew of the ship. The heads lead the three groups, who would work side by side infiltrating the city. The first group, the Dark Operatives, consists of the thieves and rangers. These men scout the land ahead of us, telling us what is there, what obstacles, enemies and traps. With their information, the second group, the CutThroats, can silently take out any guards. This group are mainly assassins, for they work quietly and ensure a quick entrance into the city. Lastly, the third group, and the largest, the Black Skurge, consists of warriors, wizards and archers, who provide the brute strength to hold off the guards until the main fleet from Umbar arrives.
We have docked our ship where the Sirith meets the Tumladen, where we will hide it in one of the many nooks or coves that runs along the sides of the rivers. From there we will set off on land. From here we fight to fullfil our mission: to hold the city of Minas Tirith, and open its gates for the great fleet of Umbar!
