Characters
- Rock - A polite, well-dressed, former business man trying to survive the chaotic life of a pirate.
- Revy - Known also as "Two-Hands", Revy is the gunner for the ship. Occasionally she has bouts of maniacal rampaging with her twin hand guns. For the most part she is apathetic to anything that doesn't cause her extra grief.
- Dutch - The captain of the boat and general leader of the group, Dutch is the American soldier who likes to have all of his bases covered. His methodology is almost the exact opposite of Revy's.
- Benny - The techie of the ship and a former hacker.
