Pirate Pete

Pirate Pete is a non-player character that plays a role in the Rum Deal quest. Players must talk to him to start the quest, and he is located on a deck near the Ectofuntus. He also offers the player transport to Braindeath Island after the quest. When travelling back and forth, players are knocked unconscious every time, which does not deal any damage. Players will then wake up on the island, which does not appear on the Runescape map.

Pirate Pete is the cousin of Party Pete, Pumpkin Pete, Parroty Pete and Postie Pete. One of his birthday parties is listed as the fifth worst party in the Official History of RuneScape. No such document exists, however Pirate Pete claims cannonballs were swapped with balloons maiming a significant number of guests.

In Recipe for Disaster Pirate Pete is one of the guests captured by the Culinaromancer. He can be freed by creating his favourite dish, the fishcake.

From time to time, Postie Pete visits Pirate Pete. Players can have a piratey conversation with Postie.

Trivia

 * Dramatic irony is experienced when Pirate Pete knocks the player unconscious. The person playing knows exactly what happens every time, but the in-game character has no idea.
 * "Pirate Pete" is featured in a "Monster Goose" rhyme by Judy Sierra.
 * When Postie Pete turns up, Pirate Pete will say to him it is "all quiet on the eastern front" which is likely to be a reference to the novel "All Quiet on The Western Front" and may be hinting at a future release to do with the eastern lands.
 * Intrestingly, if you're wearing a fishbowl helmet at the time you take a lift to Braindeath island and Pete knocks you unconsicious, hitting you with a glass bottle doesn't break up your glass-made helmet.
