Cap'n Threelegs' missing leg has dubious origins.
Cap'n Threelegs (also known as Lefty) is a Pirate Eyrie who trains Neopets at the Swashbuckling Academy, introduced on August 28, 2001.
Overview[edit]
Cap'n Threelegs is a veteran Pirate who used to served aboard the S.S. Peophintine for many decades until he accepted to become head of the Swashbuckling Academy. In exchange for accepting the job, he was pardoned of crimes which stemmed from his pirating. He now spends his days training Neopets to fight, passing wisdom, and telling otherwise tall tales to those who are willing to listen.
Threelegs has a peg-leg where his right front leg would be, which he lost in a freak accident with Tombola. He's too embarrassed to admit this, however, and continues to tell a tale of how he lost it during a fight with a monstrous Krawk. Residents of Krawk Island realize it's a tall tale, but enjoy listening to it more than the truth.
Sayings[edit]
Cap'n Threelegs has a special section in the Swashing Academy where he can share a collection of sayings. Below are all those collected...
- Argg, shiftless waisters! Either shape up or I'll have ye walkin' the plank!
- Arrrrrr!
- Aye, I could murder a Hot Dog right now!
- For the more expensive dubloons, use the Dubloon-O-Matic
- Greetings to ya one and all. Pull up a keg of Neocola, and set a-spell.
- I be the finest swordsman in this whole island!
- I'll not be tellin' how I lost me leg!
- If ye be not paying, I'll maroon ya, you swag-bellied haggard!
- Me courses can last a while, but arrr, they are worth it!
- Some say there be gold buried in the ruins of Maraqua...
- Ye don't happen to have any of those orange Dubloons do yer?
- Yer wouldn't fetch me a nice cool smoothie now would yer?
