If a ship refused to surrender, they risked the wrath of the Pirate ships crew. Once a battle began the Jolly Roger was lowered and replaced with a No Quarter flag signifying that the Pirates would now take no prisoners and give no quarter to their enemy. The No Quarter flag often featured the skull and crossbones or other characteristic marks of the Jolly Roger. The two flags could easily be distinguished however due to the No Quarter flag bearing a deep red field for the background, as opposed to the common use of black on the Jolly Roger.
