| |
| The '''''Royal Fortune''''' was a [[Man O' War]] captained by the [[Piracy|pirate]] and [[Sages|Sage]] [[Bartholomew Roberts]] from 1719 to 1722. Before that, the ship was known as '''''Nosso Senhor da Compreensão''''', and formed a part of the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] [[Portuguese Navy|Navy]].
| |
|
| |
|
| She was captured by the pirates Roberts and [[Edward Kenway]] off the coast of [[Mexico]] in 1719, and Roberts retained control of the ''Royal Fortune'' for three years, until Kenway pursued him to [[Príncipe]] in order to retrieve the [[Crystal Skulls|Crystal Skull]] in Roberts' possession. Upon seeing Kenway approaching, Roberts jumped from a cliff onto the ''Fortune'' to try to escape.
| |
|
| |
| While the ''Fortune'' was bigger and had more guns, it was slower than the ''[[Jackdaw]]'', allowing Kenway to catch up with it. After reaching the open sea, the ''Royal Fortune'' came under attack from the [[Royal Navy]] and [[Spanish Navy]], both of which were also after Roberts. The ''Jackdaw'' disabled the ship, allowing Kenway to board it, kill Roberts, and retrieve the skull.
