*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 [[Order of the Sunspears|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."''
:''"I will stay and protect Istan. This is my home now, no matter who I was in my past."''
:''"Everything around you is a weapon. A stick, a rock... your knee. When you need to stagger your enemy, hit him with the largest thing you can find. The ground."''

===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!"''

==Notes==
* [[Gehraz]] spared Abasi's life, after which he turned away from the Corsairs and became a Sunspear.
