Sickened of Cassius’ arrogance and constant posturing, tired of Decius’ trickery and relentless scheming and, most of all, fed up with being used as a pawn in a huge political game, Gaius fled to Pyril in the hopes of escaping his brothers and their lackeys. Since he arrived in the port city of Cormalen five years ago, he has lived comfortably as a trader of exotic spices and vegetation like bananas, mangoes and durians. He sails the vast waters of Thessonia aboard his mighty man-o’ war, the Chenodia in search of new things to trade and adventure.

When the city of Cormalen came under attack, more than half of his crew were slain including his good friends Jack the sparrow and Joe the toad by fleeing pirates.

As a young girl living in the small town of Thorbul, Zenaida lived an otherwise normal and happy life with her parents.

The undead soon attacked her home and her parents did all they could to let their daughter escape the zombies and lost their lives in the effort. All they gave Zenaida was enough money to travel on a ship to Cormalen City and a letter to “Edgar Montague”. More than a decade later, Zenaida has served as an assistant to the couple in their management of their tavern, the Intoxicated Whaler. However, during her free time, Zenaida has trained both her body and mind in the local barracks to one day avenge the death of the family who gave their lives to save hers.

Captain Beryl Meralco nee Paddington

“For home and honor!”

Hometown: Valford, Affiliated Provinces of Ormland

Species: Mink

Occupation: Bounty-Hunter/Sailor

Goals:

#1: Recapture Admiral Sebastian for the huge reward money.

#2: Find a cure for her son’s sickness.

#3: Unravel the mystery of her husband’s untimely death.

Bio:

Born Beryl Paddington, Captain Meralco is the wife of the late Antonio Meralco and mother to Tony and Tina Meralco. Her life was simple enough at first, what with her husband being a wealthy tobacco merchant but her son soon fell ill with ghost pox, a poorly understood and bizarre condition seldom seen outside of Pyril. As if that wasn’t enough, her husband soon committed suicide with the rest of his immediate family (parents and siblings) by jumping off a cliff when he went to visit them. Refusing to believe that her husband would even contemplate such a thing, what with a son who was almost always in need of medical attention, Beryl insisted that her husband’s death was either a murder or that some other party coerced them. To this day she is haunted by the death of her husband and constantly seeks to discover what had really happened on the day that he and his family had taken their own lives.

                Beryl later became a privateer using her husband’s original ship The Golden Bride and its crew to pay for her son’s extremely high medical bills. While difficult and dangerous, she was determined to ensure her children’s future at the cost of her own life if need be. While she had lost her husband’s ship, she had managed to capture Admiral Sebastian and had brought him to Cormalen to be processed. She was due a hefty reward for her efforts but alas the pirate managed to escape and her reward was cancelled. Luckily, all was not lost for the privateer captain as help came from a most surprising source.

And the person whom the story is mostly centered on!

Admiral Donato “Don-Don” Sebastian

“It’s not death you should fear but what you find yourself forced to live with!”

Age: 300?

Gender: Male

Hometown: Santa Innocencia, Pyril

Species: Komodo Dragon

Occupation: Pirate/Lich

Goals:

#1: Unknown. Seems to be searching for something. Or someone. 

#2: Pirate and sell banned literature and concoct and peddle prohibited liquors.

#3: Produce and profit from illegal theatrical plays.  

Bio:

The dreaded Pirate Admiral began his mortal life as a commoner whose only desire was to explore and discover more about the world. He traveled often, usually with his childhood friend and later betrothed Fina Vaughn, and together they traveled all across the then young Confederate Islands, Xenjese Commonwealth and Zorali Magocracy. They are even said to have traveled beyond, into the Unknown World, to the mythical continents of the dreaded Gravelands. However, it was said to be there, in those distant lands, that Donato Sebastian first learned of black magic which he soon became obsessed with. According to the stories, Donato Sebastian then sacrificed Fina Vaughn who was pregnant with his child at the time in order to please the new gods he worshiped. He was then rewarded with immortality through undeath and became the fearsome lich he is now.

These days Admiral Sebastian sails the waters of the Thessonia Ocean in search of ships he may sell his pirated goods to or Xenjese or Zorali ships he can terrorize and capture. He has a particular hatred for Commonwealth or Magocracy ships and will almost always attack them over the Confederal Navy and constabulary even though the latter is probably the greatest threat to him. According to what the Confederal Navy has discovered so far, Admiral Sebastian seems mostly content to pirate and sell books banned by either or both the government and the clergy such as The Salacious Secrets of Zoral’s Covens, The Xenjese Agenda: Enemies Among Us, The Vespucci Code: What Zoral’s Covens Aren’t Telling Us, The Unholy Debaucheries of Emperor Pu and the ever-infamous 50 Hues of Silver. He also takes part in the production of coconut vodka, also called “lambanog” among the local Pyrilians, which is unfortunately illegal. He also produces stage plays that are otherwise outlawed by the Pyrilian government and or church usually starring his own crew at fairly affordable prices.
