Blackbeard also spent a lot of his reign spreading stories of his own cruelty arround to make it easier for him to defeat others. Exactly how true these stories are is unknown, as the majority of what he told was said for the purpose of scaring others so they would surrender rather than face his wrath. Likewise he never killed a single person he kidnapped, although on one occasion he cut a man's arm when he reused to give him a ring he was wearing.
