Pirates and the 5 Heroes Luminous

The story about the Pirate class was that they were made AFTER all that stuff with the Heroes and the Black Mage, with the goal to chase down his surviving supporters, right?

I'm not really sure about the story behind the Pirate class, but if it was correct, then that's probably why the last hero wasn't a pirate class, right?

Edit: After reading all the replies, I would like to point out that I made a pirate when they had first came out (I'm always reading the dialogue) but that's a long time ago. It's just that the stuff got a bit hazy for me. All I remember was that the pirates were made to clean out the trash after the black mage (Like that stupid looking thing you kill that's called "Black Mage Desciple" or whatever, it looks like a black ball with flames I believe. Is that even still around anymore?)

I just wanted to make sure if I had the right background story behind the pirates.

Okay, lets this story started.
First off, if you did the Ellin forest quests, you will know that Kyrin's mother was pregnant when the Black Mage Struck. This is probably why no pirates were part of the battle. Then following that, during the opening of the Aran storyline, Athena was gathering people to board the ship and flee to Victoria. My guess is that Kyrin's mom was also on that ship. After she bore Kyrin, Kyrin then took on the role of a pirate and eliminated the remains of the Black mage's army (Since the heroes sealed up the Black Mage) While Kyrin gathered a crew and set aboard, Athena and others were on victoria island training Explorers until Kyrin returned. (Which then prompted the release of the Pirate class.)

Oh boy hehre we go again. It's not that pirates never existed, nor did they always exist. Pirates were still developing a few years after the Black Mage was done with. And exactly how, in the right mind, could a pirate SEAL the Black Mage? Pirates don't use magic. DING DING DING. MAGIC. SEAL. MAGIC. MAGE. End of story.

There are only two pirates around Black Mage time. But none of them are strong enough to even take on one of the Commanders, let alone Black Mage himself. So we have no pirate hero, can people stop making dumb thread about this ? It makes me feel like 90% of GMS fandom are clueless about this.

The M.A.P.L.E. characters are the 5 heroes of the [b]present[/b] timeline.

Even though there's already too many classes, I still reckon they'll introduce S.T.O.R.Y. characters perhaps as heroes of the past

What's the big deal anyway? Nexon never said they would be making a hero for every adventurer type, yet everyones raging as though they were betrayed or something. You guys need to get over the fact that all your assumptions were incorrect and just accept the route Nexon decide to take with [b]THEIR[/b] story.

@Miauri: -bigger facepalm- The story about the Heroes didn't, but the story about the Black Mage did. It sneaked in with Pirates. If you did some quests on the Nautilus, you would know about how Kyrin's dad set sail to fight against the Black Mage, and he left her the Nautilus, but he was never heard from again.

Not sure if the Black Mage was mentioned before Pirates though

Well the only reason that i can think for not having a pirate hero, is because Kyrin's Dad die ¡Attention maplers!, he was a pirate not a mage so no he can't have a succesor because he couldn't teach someone his skills, kyrin's mother is a fairy (reason why she has more than 100 years).
Sorry for my english is not my first or second language.

Evan has Freuds dragons spirit, which was used to fight the black mage, You know.. Like in the Mercedes trailer. He was kind of there with her.

OT: I dont know about anyone else, but I had a feeling there was not going to be a pirate hero. Here is Nexon releasing the Cannoner which was a unique Pirate/adventurer class, now they released Jett (and the Dragon Warrior on other servers) which is another pirate class. It is Nexons always horrible way to compensate for things.
