Evaluation
Pros Cons
 * Abasi's Apply Poison provides considerable degeneration, and is particularly effective when fighting corsairs since the corsair rangers use Toxicity.
 * Troll Unguent is an efficient self-heal.
 * High armor against elemental damage.
 * Apply Poison is useless against non-fleshy creatures, such as skeletons.
 * Henchmen will not normally inflict poison to multiple enemies.

Dialogue
Towns and outposts:
 * "As a corsair, I was known as Evil Eye Abasi. Some men have pasts they are ashamed of. Mine is a dark ocean of regret. In the Sunspears, I have a chance to repay Istan for the harm I did her shores. Gehraz spared me. I will not forget that I owe him my life... even when I did not deserve the gift."

Quotes

 * "I do what I can for the Sunspears, but I'll never really be one of them, savvy? I'm nothing but a corsair. I was born a corsair and I'll die one. But maybe, somewhere in the middle, I can find forgiveness for that accident of birth."
 * "I know how to fight corsairs, son. Break them over their own masts, use their cannons against them, and dash their spirit. It's easy to destroy a man once you know where he's weak. Trust me, I know."
 * "No one is more fanatic than a man who has changed his faith."

Battle quotes

 * "Don't worry about this one. He's already dead. He just doesn't know it yet."
 * "For the Sunspears!"
 * "He won't know what hit him."
 * "Learn from your enemy. If he shows fear, use it."
 * "Loose the ten-pounders and rock the jib! These'll be dead before the water rises!"
 * "Meet the blade… and the master!"
 * "Not all Sunspears fight like gentlemen, son."
 * "Over the edge, my fine fellow."
 * "Run, brigands! This is your last warning!"
 * "Sand in the eyes! Point for me."
 * "Shatter the knee!"
 * "That wound may look like a nick, but Grenth comes for you. Just give him a moment..."
 * "What do you fear more? Dying? Or living?"
 * "Yaaaarrrr!"
