Deadrunners are one of the two types of pirates on the planet of [[Lumar]]. They are most notably notorious for being the type of pirates that will kill a person, or as Tress put it; "...an entire ship's worth of people."{{book ref|tress|17}}

Captain [[Crow]] notes that deadrunners generally live lives of opulence, but only in frenzied outbursts. And as most deadrunner lives are bound to be short, that opulence should be enjoyed quickly. She also believes that being a deadrunner is synonymous with being one step away from death.{{book ref|Tress|35}}
 
== Crew of ''Crow's Song'' ==
The crew of the ''[[Crow's Song]]'' made the decision to leave behind the life of a successful merchant vessel and crew, and instead follow [[Captain Crow]] into a life of piracy, they had no intention of becoming deadrunners.{[{book ref|tress|17}} This title was forced upon them when Captain Crow and [[Laggart]] tricked all of them during the attack on the ''[[Oot's Dream]]''. Instead of using standard cannonballs that explode on impact, they instead used cannonballs that exploded after they pierced the side of the ship, releasing their water inside the ship, rather than on the side. This caused the Verdent spores to explode inside the ship and on the crew of the ''Oot's Dream'', effectively sinking the ship and killing the crew.{{book ref|tress|9}}{{book ref|tress|10}}{{book ref|tress|11}}
