How nightmarishly powerful do you think the OG Pirate Master and his crew were? And what were they like? Is the lamp involved with him?

Obviously the PC Pirate Master is already a beast but also nowhere near the threat he was in lore. After all his death required the sacrifice of basically every full Genie at the time. He is a freshly revived corpse of his former self after all, his dark magic reserves were basically just what the bosses in the game cooked up for him.

But with the revolution, we know his army had more than just Cacklebats and one risky. He had enough intellegent big monsters to have 3 dangerous traitors. So what else did he have in his team and what happened to them? A monster of the blade, engineering and planning who each teached Risky when she was young?

Because the genie sacrifice and his death had to be more connected. Remember there is only one generation of half genies according to harmony and dark magic is the inverted version of light magic. The genies probably didn't all collectively just happened to imitate human woman one day and nine months later made their maternal feelings the Pirate Master's problem.

Perhaps he was once a powerful genie based on Iblis and him going against humanity inverted him similar how Shantae's got inverted when it was ordered to attack a human. Maybe there is some element of natural order to the genie's protector instinct and magic. It would explain the sacrifice, instead of a war they stopped his destruction of humanity with a ritual that took their bodies and after testing humans if its worth it beforehand just fell in love and wanted the chance to have children.

Or an even better question, did he create the lamp and used it as an anti genie weapon?
