Nautical Plague was formed by Talsorn around the time of Halloween 2006, containing only one sloop owned by Talsorn. Soon Cadfael joined and became a senior officer. He allowed the use of his ironworking stall upon Dragon's Nest for the crew's restocking needs. Talsorn hoped to create a flag named The Hidden Valkers in memory of Cadfael's old crew. Cadfael would have been named king.
