That reminds me of the old TSR 'Top Secret' - each spy (PC) had 1 point of reputation per level and 1d6 luck (which was held secretly by the DM). You could avoid death by spending a point of reputation, or risk spending a point of luck - but nobody knew exactly when their luck was going to run out!

BTW, I love the idea of using WHFRP for a 'Pirates of the Carribbean' styled game - it seems like a really cool idea.
