# Generation 0 Pirates

### What are Generation 0 Pirates?

Generation 0 consists of 3,000 unique Parrots; they are the original inhabitants of Tortuga. Consisting of over200 traits, these were the first collection of the Damned Pirates Society. The artwork was done by the artist [Ozzz](https://twitter.com/ozzzmabro) from [Mafriends](https://twitter.com/MafriendsArt) art. They were designed to be a great profile picture as well as assets to be used in the game. A blend of art and utility.

In addition to being quality pieces of art, each parrot has skills that influence their performance in-game. Generation 0 Pirates' skill levels were based on a linear distribution with roughly equal numbers of high skill and low skill pirates.&#x20;

The skill range (150-300) in each level was determined at mint and is unable to be changed.
