It was established 200 years give or take ago. The rules have changed since then but its purpose is still the same.

It was founded by Andrea Hex otherwise known as The Kraken. She created it after a skirmish with another band of pirates, where the second band took some of The Krakens goods this need in a bloody fight where many got killed. After that she decided to make a sanctuary for pirates where they could stop their goods, without the worry they will be taken, rest and get proper food. Unlike the rations they get on the ships. The rules there are simple and stand to what Andrea wanted.
