A collection of pirate headcanons for Nightmare's crew
Nightmare, the captain, knows Horror doesn't like pirating (see Horror's entry lmao), so he avoids raids on such places and fishing boats. He also gives H a bit more allowance than others since he's more likely to actually use it. He has two jackets he wears. His usual coat, a fairly modest captain's coat, and his Big Coat which is for special occasions, like weddings or if they were fighting someone important, and whenever he's in the mood to.
Dust is always the first one on an enemy ship, since the first ones on get the coats (if they live). He is very big on coats and jackets he has a little stash of 'em. The authority depicts him in a torn and tattered or bloody, usually gray coat with a hood. That's the only thing they know about him. His affinity for outerwear.
Killer is definitely 1st mate, he also gets into the booze more than he should. He carries three daggers he treats like throwing knives. He can still summon his red blades/soul knives. He just limits himself because he finds it entertaining. If a loss seems sure, he doesn't hesitate to summon his knives to turn the tables on them. He finds that quite amusing too.
His description from the government would look something like: 'A corpse that cries ink and fights with glowing, red knives. He is known to be cunning and sly.' Now, why they have that much on him is because he loves putting on show and making a whole fuss over his doings.
Horror wears a skirt. A long straight one of an earthy tone. I always associate him with earthish color, they- funnily enough- bring a comforting sense of stability. He doesn't like raiding towns. Ships and political cities he's fine with, but little settlements? Nah, man. He's going to be respectful and pay for anything he was sent to pick up. And bet yer ass he's making anyone with him behave too.
