thanks to Johnny of Pirate101 Central
The map has a riddle, and if you solve it, you can get a code that if you redeem, you will get a special companion, a Ninja Pig companion!
Unfortunaly, I'm portuguese and didn't received a map but a very nice person of Pirate101 Central (Daniella) gave me a code for the Ninja Pig companion, I was really excited and here is how he looks.
Also, some people on Pirate101 Central already promoted it, and when he promotes, he just looks awesome, check out his 2 promotions:
