Test your mettle and [[swordfight]]ing prowess against the scourge of the oceans: the [[skellie]]s. Bringing eternal darkness with them, skellies (also called skeletons) are [[
non
player pirate|non-player]] characters that randomly appear on [[island]]s in groups of 3 to 50. Once they appear, they can be challenged to a daring swordfighting [[brawl]]. When challenged, the skellies will take 100 [[Pieces of Eight|PoE]] and a random item from the player. Aside from [[rat|pet rats]], [[familiar]]s, [[backsword]]s, and [[savvy hat]]s, skellies can take any unequipped [[clothing]], [[pet]]s, [[sword]]s, [[bludgeon]]s, [[mug]]s, [[bid ticket]]s, [[chart]]s, [[potion]]s, or [[furniture]] from a pirate’s [[booty panel]]. The skellies will only accept challenges until the number of pirates in the brawl equals the number of skellies. The melee can be started at any time when over half the players vote to start. If the skellies win, they stay on the island to be challenged again. If the players win, the skellies leave the island. All the bets from the previous rounds are distributed evenly to the players, and each player gets an additional 1000 PoE. Every pirate that survives the melee will also get a [[Skull (trinket)|skull trinket]], inscribed with their name which can be held in [[portrait]]s. In rare instances, a random pirate will receive a [[skeleton bone|skeleton bone bludgeon]].

The easiest way to find skellies is to take the Defeat the Skellies [[mission]] from the [[notice board]]. Seeing this mission when the skellies are out requires an [[experience]] of Narrow and [[puzzle standing]] of Renowned in swordfighting, an item to be wagered, and 100 PoE.
