My theme is that landlubbers get Captain Whitebeard mixed up with Santa Claus. He is an alternate reality of Santa. He returns loot and booty to his not so nice islanders once a year and this rowdy crew gets attacked by an underwater beast. They do end up defeating it and celebrate by busting out the rum! My gingerbread components include the kraken head, ship and retention pieces “underwater”. Outside the ship, the tentacles and pirates are fondant and gum paste. The water and gems are isomalt.
