10 min Background:
1- Born to a noble within the region, was taken at the age of 8 and used to drain money from the noble family until 11, when he was “adopted” by the captain and used as free labor for 5 years.
2- Exceptionally charismatic by nature, he soon made friends with most of the crew, and eventually, after proving his worth, rose through the ranks to eventually earn his freedom, and be given the position of first mate. 3- While excellent in swordplay, he was never one for bloodshed, and more often than not would manage to end a fight with little life lost. However, he isn’t gonna think to long about sticking someone what needs it. 4- In the end, He is looking out for #1. He is ambitious and would see his desires come to fruition. He has a code of his own and values a man’s words. He never lightly goes back on a deal. (not only is it bad for reputation, but that sort of thing can get a man keel-hauled) 5- He left the crew at port to follow his dreams, using the skills he learned on ship to hopefully make his way and eventually become a captain of his own. 6- See’s freedom as the only way to live, he doesn’t like being tied down, and often prefers to follow his own whims than another’s as such he sees a ship, the ability to go wherever his heart(and the winds) take him as the highest freedom of all. Needless to say, he has a bit of a problem with authority usually. 7- Seeks to make a legend himself under the name of "maestro of the sea" 8- He dislikes dark caves, they make him feel confined, the lack of wind bothers him and his vision fails, he rarely travels to such places unless under dire circumstances. He has a similar effect when forced to stay indoors for long periods of times, but it is much less pronounced. 9- He has a parrot named Violet, for the magnificent purple feathers she has. 10- Plays both string and wind based instruments proficiently and while he prefers string instruments (namely the piano and violin) he does own a sax. goals:
2- Make a name for himself among both the nobles and disreputable captains of of the shackles/ coast and Garner as much influence in the happenings of the area as any of them 3- Possibly start his own "mercenary" corp. 4- Create music that is known throughout the lands, become known as the “Maestro of the Seas” and have himself pass into legend for centuries to come. (If he becomes a captain, one of his melodies will be known throughout the coast as he would play it whenever he sets chase to a ship) Secrets: (1 known, 2 unkown)
- His father is not who he believes he is. Step 5
- A quirk of his is he is almost always continually humming. - He is exceptionally tidy for a pirate and he is always dressed in rich looking attire and keeps himself and his clothing clean via magic. - He enjoys taking his violin or flute up the front of the ship, or to the crow’s nest and playing little tunes as he looks out over the ocean and feels the wind blowing around him. It’s a small thing, but one of the things he enjoys about sailing the most Background:
Concept- Young Noble that was "press-ganged" into service so to speak. He was forced to learn to live with the ruffians of a pirate crew. While it wasn't an easy life. (filled with hard labour and lashings) he eventually learned a lot of the sailing trade, and after showing competence in music and entertainment slowly began to crawl up the ranks. Eventually, after proving exceptionally talented in swordplay, he was given his freedom by the captian. (who had long stopped receiving any pay from the poor lads parents) The captain (name up to GM... his world :P) would ask him to stay on..which he would for a while. Learning ever more of the trade and often enough, he was able to convince the OTHER side to surrender before much blood was shed. Finally, at port. Alexander (or Alec, by the crew) left to follow his own dreams of leading his own crew on his own ship. He had an ace up his sleeve as well (or two or three) he carried a reputation with him now, as his music was well known on the waters. The Maestro of the sea. His music was the sound of certain death. (or, robbery, at the least.) So he finds himself in port, looking to make his dreams reality, and seek the truest freedom of all. TLDR: musician/singer/dancer/bladesman wants to one day be a captain like his (adoptive) father. Still has the bearing of a noble, but can be as callous, rough, and dirty as any sailor. Very adept at knowing when to use either persona.
Appearance and Personality:
Image
He often likes to take control of things, especially things involving nobles, ships, or music. He is naturally loud and boisterous, but his noble blood still shows when he wishes it, becoming graceful, elegant, diplomatic and "noble" in bearing at the drop of a hair. Loves a good shanty and some good music, has a taste for the finer food and wines of the world. While he doesn't actively look to harm or hinder others, if doing so would provide him a much better spot, or situation than he has at the time, he is likely to do it. He has a soft spot for "Indentured ship hands" due to having been one himself. He has a fleeting fancy to find his biological parents, however finds the life of a nobleman stuff, confining and boring. He has taken much from his "adoptive father" the Pirate Captain that eventually took him in after kidnapping and ransoming the boy. Believes in judging a man by his actions, and his work ethic.
