It all starts with a new crew of pirates gathering at the backroom of an in named the black hand inn, one of the pirates has aqquired information of a spanish ship transfering a treasure chest and the pirates discuss how they will seoze this opportunity yet there will be some problems in the end...

He was born into a poor family and his mother died in a disease at an early age, his father whom sought riches and glory took his 11 years old son with him as he left to start a career as a pirate. They began from Tortuga and were soon recruited into a crew all tough Francis never fought at close range until 16 when he was capable enough to fight. In time the ship that they were on captured another ship, far more smaller yet very manouverable and the father and son seized their opportunity.

At one night when they were at watch at the main ship they set the whole ship to explode as the rowed aboard the other, they quickly deposed of the fellow pirates and captured the ship. They sailed to Tortuga and recruited a crew beginning to sink merchant ship, later on it was unclear what happened to his father yet he sails the ship still.

Enjoys having things in the palm of her own hand, and doesn't let her future be ruled by anyone other than herself.

history: she became a pirate at age 15, she has worked hard to get the respect she has from the other members of the crew. she never talks much about her past so little is known, the little that people know is, her mother died when she was little and her father never fully healed, thus leaving him unable to love his daughter. that is the main reason that Kaitlen became a pirate, if she couldn't have love from those around her at home, the best she could do was earn respect from those on a ship and hope that she didn't die while trying.))

When Hedoc turned 12, he killed the blacksmith and fled. Wanted by the King for murder, he went in hiding for a few more years.

(I will start it already, but after this I can`t post today cause it`s getting late so don`t go too far with the posting)

There was a quiet whistle as a man almost danced his way across the hallway and dodged for a flying bottle as two men were fighting in the hallway. He quickly opened a door and swinged it closed, he turned to look at the 80 headed crew that was gathered in the back room, around a long wooden table. Francis smirked and walked up to the table`s head, he pulled out a map from his vest as they all stared at him.

He layed it on the table it was a map of the carribean that had few markings of his plans, Francis took a mug and filled it with rum before sitting down.

"Gentlemen..."

Francis nodded.

"And ladies..."

He started with serious voice, then he slightly smirked as he was about to burts into laughter yet held it.

"As ye all know you are now my new crew or you ye will be, should we come to an agreement about our first thingy, for those boneheads that don`t know I am Francis La Bous, yes a bloody frenchman you all think eh? Yet when ye hear my offering you`ll want to jump aboard my ship faster than ye wanted to learn to fly when yer mothers dropped you..."

He drank some of his rum, he gave the map and it went around the crew. Francis layed his mug on the table.

"As you might have noticed there are markings there onthe map, now according to my reliable sources there be a spanish galleon leaving from Santiago De Cuba carrying a chest. This chest holds gold I hear, I mean full of it and it ain`t just a small chest. The chest be made out of stone so that means some of you might have to hurt your backs carrying it, why it be made out of stone I have no clue yet I promise everyone a fair share of the gold. They might have some escorts along yet I believe they be nothing before us....

Of course that is not all, the chest is just the main treasure besides they be carrying other valuables aboard that ship meaning the ship will be heavy and with my craft, my leadership and yer work we will be enjoying ourselves like kings two days from now, savy?"

He raised his mug looking at them all.

"Now who be with me?"
