also, their opposition with the Maelstrom?
kiiiiiiiiiinda important.
There should be a palpable tension between the Admiral and her Maelstrom, and the people they're trying to rule. To throw in this idea that there's actually this very strict code of conduct they're forced, by threat of death, to follow, and that every pirate accedes to lest they get murdered by the Rogues Guild, dumps a bucket of ice water on that tension leaving the whole setting rather antiseptic.
