Marks of the Five Captains
Young Ralph will only tell you the story if you get the marks of the Five Captains, so you must visit each of them and convince them to give you the mark.

Captain Braindeath on Braindeath Island
Speak to Captain Braindeath on Braindeath Island. He is on the level right above the ground, in the 'rum' factory. He wants you to convince the barman of the Rusty Anchor in Port Sarim to stock his 'rum', and will give you a set of disguises to wear. Go to the Rusty Anchor in Port Sarim, and start by asking the barkeep about the rum. He will say they do not stock it and demand is too low to order any of it. Keep talking to him and asking for a drink. Buy him one also until he is too drunk to recognise you. Exit the pub and put on one of the 5 disguises, then talk to him again about the rum. Then exit the pub and change disguises again. Do this with all 5 and, on the 5th, he will say he wants to talk to you. Take off your disguise. Talk to him yet again and he will order some rum. Return to Captain Braindeath to get his mark.

Captain Bill Teach
Speak to the Bill Teach, he will tell you to find 50 Ships Mufassah who is on the 2nd floor of the northern-most bar of Mos Le'Harmless. 50 Ships Mufassah will then tell you to find the idol of many heads which is off the shore of Dragontooth Island. Get your diving apparatus and fish bowl, and 25 ecto tokens(10 with activated ring of charos), go to Port Phasmatys and the ghost captain will take you. Find the diving chain, which is in the North-east part of the island and go down, swim around until you find a Karamthulu, catch it and you will get a key. Go on the ship and open the chest up the stairs, you will find a crowbar, then go down and use the crowbar on the pile of rubble, then click it again and you will find the idol. Return to Bill Teach.

Captain Brass Hand Harry on Mos le'Harmless
Talk to Captain Brass Hand Harry in the second floor, same room as 50 Ships Mufassah, you will need the introduction letter from Bill Teach, he will tell you that you need to make him a hand for him to make his mark. He gives you some hands and tells you you need a hammer and 2 bronze wires.

Take apart the hands he gave you by clicking on them, then with the wire and hammer in your inventory use one part of the hand with another.

You now get a screen with a puzzle that's very easy, move the hand pieces to where they match on the left side, once it's complete it automatically closes.

Return to Brass Hand Harry and give him the hand, he will give you an ink pad and paper, use the hand on the ink pad, then on the paper. Talk to Harry again. You now have his mark.

Captain Izzy No-Beard outside the Brimhaven agility arena
Izzy will ask you to return to the prison and get a brooch from her friend that died there, Wanda, he asks you to go back and search the matress for some lockpicks to get into the other prison rooms, the storage room is where you need to go.

Go back to Rimmington and get arrested once more. Don't forget to store all your items in your bank before you go.

Search the bed and you will find a lockpick, use it on the jail door. Go up the stairs in the middle of the jail, then up once more. Kill a guard and take his clothes and weapon. Then click on the door and you will tell them you're there to get some evidence.

Go into the storage room and search the cabinets until you find the file about Wanda the Fish and take it. Talk to the guard and he will give you the personal items of hers. Go back to Izzy No-Beard to get your mark. You can Home Teleport or dive into the water, either way you will lose the items EXCEPT the Brooch.

Readbeard Frank in Port Sarim
Go to Port Sarim and find Redbeard Frank located south of the bar on the docks. He will ask for a letter of the terrorized monks to prove that Rabid Jack really is back. Go back to Mos Le' Harmless and talk to Brother Tranquility located around the dock area.

Talk to him and he will give you a letter, return to Frank in Port Sarim. Give him the letter and he says he will need better proof. He wants proof from one of his captains.

Get your pirate outfit on.

Go to Pirate Pete north of Port Phasmatys and he will take you to Braindeath Island.

Exit the ship and go down the stairs on the south side and you will see Captain Donnie nearby, talk to him. He will give you some plans, but you will need to find 50% Luke for the copy since they are water damaged.

Take a charcoal with you and use the plan on 50% Luke who is located northwest of Donnie(outside the fence by the bridge).

You can get charcoal from searching the crates behind 50% Luke if you go through the gate behind him.
 * Note*

Return to Port Sarim to Frank.

Once you have all 5 Marks
