What's your story?

Recommended Posts

I'm known as Robert "the Sea Wolf" Studley. I was born in 1672, and brought to America by my parents when I was small. We came from a tiny village in Scotland with hopes of a new life. My Mum and Pop got ill on the voyage over and died shortly after arriving in Carolina. I was raised by a kind Shipbuilder and his family. My nickname came from my fiesty nature. I was always getting into trouble and would rather spend my days out on the ocean than around the house.

I worked on the docks for several years enjoying the tales from the Ol' Salts. One evening I was knocked over the head in a local tavern and awoke on a British merchant ship. Relunctantly I worked on the ship which was headed back to London. On our return trip our ship was attacked by pirates. I quickly joined them to escape the harsh treatment, and began my life of piracy.

This is a start for my backgound, which I am always adding to. The tough thing I find is staying in character. I am definitly not an actor!

I try to make my outfit as close to period as my wallet will let me, and pick up pointers from other pirates. I'm interested in ya'll's tales...what's your story? :ph34r:

I be born in Granada Spain 1492. Escaped the Moorish defeat being smuggled out and found safe harbour in Portugal where I was to take me first sea job as a cabin boy pon the Middle Sea with Privateer De Gama. Until the year of 15 and 23 I moved bout ship to ship hittin here and taking there and I met 'im in 15 and 58. Me captain for years agin as old as I be, Francis Drake. Though he be thirty and seven years me junior he was magnificent he was. A better Captain i never knew. I became is second mate and fer a time too a cartographer wit him. Fer ten years Drake and I we grew close. By the time in the year 15 and 68 we both nearly escaped certain death in San Juan de Ulloa, I retired. I now work as a skins, pelts and tails trader with me cart in shires al be it 'ere in the West.

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
