His mother, bless her soul, was trying to make quick work of her delivery as she was needed to support her crew, husband and ship. As a priestess of Besmara first and captain of the Barracuda second it was her task to pray to the goddess for salvation and command her man. Her husband, first mate and currently at the helm trying to steer the ship out of the hurricane was unaware his first child was just born. As the waves got higher, the winds stronger and the chance at survival slimmer it would be a mother’s love for her newborn child that would change the obvious outcome. As she was laying on floor, exhausted, she prayed. Supreme goddess and all powerful spirt of the sea hear my call. As I have served you for the last decade, looting and pillaging in your name, I have but one request SAVE MY SON. I have seen his eyes, he will bring you much pleasure in the years to come. He will be famous, more so than all who sail on the Barracuda, including myself. Take me, my husband and all who call the Barracuda her home so my son may live. After a mere heartbeat the storm started to lose power and in minutes was completely gone. The crew started to cheer on the decks above as a beautiful red-haired woman appeared beside the priestess, smiled and said Name the boy and give him to me. The priestess kissed her newborn and said Be great, little Jack. Besmara smiled again and took the boy from his mother. Jack, a fitting name were the last words from her lips and she vanished. At first nothing happened, then an eerie sound, a call from below the water. Then all hell broke loose, giant black tentacles came up from the water and grabbed the ship. The mast broke like a twig and the hull was being crushed to pieces. Men who didn’t die in the initial attack were taken by a wide variety of sea monsters when they entered the water. No crewmember survived including the captain and her first mate. And Jack…… Jack never knew his parents or the events that had transpired on the day he was born. All that Jack new was that he was an orphan who had been taking in by an innkeeper and his wife, a couple in their forties who couldn’t have children. He grew up in Quent a city/port ruled by the pirate lord Tessa Fairwind. Although he was loved by his foster parents Jack soon noticed he was different than normal young boys. His eyes, feet and even his skin were different. His foster parents didn’t care, they were just glad to have a son but the rest of the world did care. Jack was bullied and picked on by the other kids, he was an outcast, his childhood years were hard. Despite the affection of his foster parents Jack never felt at home in Quent. He just didn’t fit in and at the age of 12 he couldn’t take it anymore he ran away and stowed away on a merchant vessel. Just 2 days on sea he was found and brought before the captain. He pleaded with the captain to let him be part of the crew, to let him be a sailor. The captain, a cleric of Besmara saw something in the weird looking young boy and made part of his crew. He also taught the boy about Besmara, the pirate queen. In the next 4 years Jack served on his crew, from deckhand to eventually becoming his first mate. But Jack wanted something different, he resigned and went back to his roots, to Quent. But when he returned to Quent all was not well, his mother had gotten ill and had died a year after he left and his father couldn’t take the loss of his wife and he drank himself to death. The loss of his parents hit him hard and he sought to forget this loss in reckless behavior like gambling and thievery. Now exactly 1 year later after his return to Quent he finds himself in the Formidably Maid tavern drinking the painful memories away.
As promised my submission. Jack:

Erik was born 24 years ago, third child to two loving parents. He grew up on the outskirts of a small rural village where his parents had a small farm. From a young age Erik and his siblings worked on their parent’s farm, life was harsh but good. The years went on and Erik grew into a young man, sharing his mother’s interest for nature, he frequently explored the surrounding woods. It was on one of these trips he would find trouble with a capital T. Being out and about Erik had wandered a bit too far and found himself in a forbidden part of the woods. Recent rumors told of disappearances in this part of the woods. Gathering some herbs for his mother Erik came face to face with 3 goblins. Not really armed, besides a small dagger, Erik decided to flee. He run as fast he could and thought he had outrun the kobolds when a he turned round the corner to come face to face with a ‘big’ goblin holding a large blade. Unable to dodge the coming attack, Erik felt the blade cutting him across the throat. Feeling the blood flow from the apparent mortal wound Erik put both is hands on his throat to stop the bleeding. Last thing he remembered while he lost consciousness was the ugly grin on the goblins face. He must be dreaming, on his way to his forefathers, when a wet sensation came over him. It was more of someone was washing his face and throat with a sturdy cloth. Opening his eyes Erik got the scare of his life. A small striped cat was licking his face and the wound on his neck. Cursed I must be to almost die at the hand of that goblin, to survive by a miracle, then to get eaten by a tiger Erik thought to himself. Please make this painless and quick. After half a minute he still hadn’t been killed so Erik opened his eyes again to look straight into the cats eyes. He was pleasantly surprised to see not bloodlust or hunger but intelligence and kindness. A friendship was born that moment between Cuddles, tiger and Erik, halfling. Cuddles protected Erik while he nursed himself back to life using the skills his mother had told him. After a week he was strong enough to travel and he set out for his home. Devastated he was when he came upon the burned out ruins of his parent’s farm. No sign of any survivors Erik grieved for 2 days. That day Erik died and Scar the Silent was born. Having no family left and without a home Erik decided to find his mother’s old friend, the ranger Shalelu. The last year with Shalelu Scar improved his already existing nature skills, becoming a druid. When asked by Shalelu for help he didn’t hesitate, seeing this is a chance to repay her for all her help and wisdom. Description: Scar has a tanned skin from being outside all the time. He looks at the world with his brown eyes in a positive way without forgetting the hardship that made him who he is today. His clean-shaven bald head has a nice shine to it in the morning sun. He wears a travelers outfit fit for living outdoors, all brown and green with a sturdy black leather armor over it.
