Celebrate St. Patrick's Day
Join Us for Irish Cheer
Thanks to Pirates like Shamus O' Malley and Captain Walter of the Marceline guild, we're happy to report the EITC won't be shipping any green dyes or inks to Europe this spring. In fact, the Caribbean's resources are staying in the islands as several shipments of EITC cargo were recently raided and barrels of dye and ink were "commandeered" for the Caribbean shopkeepers.
For a limited time, Pirates can visit Ink Parlors and Barbers for Irish-themed tattoos and green hair to help celebrate the St. Patrick's Day holiday! Looking for a party? Then join our GMs in-game on Tuesday, March 17 on St. Patrick's Day from 12 - 2 PM and 4 - 6 PM (all times Pacific) when we'll be celebrating in taverns and towns all over the Caribbean!

Where in the Caribbean Is Shamus O' Malley?
 | Find the Irishman, Get His Gold The Marceline Guild has a curious new crewmate, a Pirate from Ireland by the name of Shamus O'Malley. Shamus is a proud Irishman and a very lucky Pirate - he and his family have collected quite a fortune. Every year on St. Patrick's Day, Shamus celebrates his heritage by sharing his good fortunes with other Pirates - and giving away his hard earned fortune! But Shamus doesn't just stand around on the docks of Port Royal handing out pots of gold. You see, Shamus is uncomfortable in large crowds, so often he's found hiding in some brush or tucked away in a quiet shop. If you spot Shamus on St. Patrick's Day, walk up to him, greet him, and whisper to him this secret phrase: "This be my lucky day Shamus!" You could win some of Shamus' gold! |
