The Pirate quest series is a series of quests centring around the pirate islands in south-east Gielinor. The quests in the quest series are linear but each quest touches very different aspects of the plot. This is one of the few quest series that have a free to play quest in it, Pirate's Treasure. The other quests are only for members, however.
