Fort Charles

Sitting high above the island of Port Royal, this imposing structure of stone look down onto the harbor and the town below.

Her wall-mounted cannons are meant to protect vessels coming into or out of the harbor. They were unable to protect the citizen from the wrath of Hector Barbossa and the crew of the Black Pearl as they laid siege to the port, in search of the last coin from the cursed Aztec treasure of Cortez.

The fort is also where major island events are held, such as the promotion of James Norrington to the rank of Commodore.

Currently, dozens of Royal Navy soldiers protect the fort from pirates. They vary in rank from Cadet and Guard to more able Sergeant or Veteran. A couple of East India Trading Company Black Guard members can be found there. Usually, a Grunt or Hired-Gun are stationed at the hangman's platform or the overlook where the alarm bell is mounted.

Pirates often try to infiltrate the fort to either find components for illegal weapons, contraband voodoo dolls, or to meet with imprisoned pirate Gordon Greer.
