Character Name: Markus Sly
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Rank on The Maiden: Night Guard. He stays up at night making sure that they don't have any raids from other pirate ships, and hangs out in the crows nest. He also does ship repair if needed.
Personality: He's an outgoing guy and not afraid to speak his mind . He fights for entertainment and will steal anything he has an interest in. Overall nice guy, always minds his manors around women, but when it comes to guys he's always the first one to start a fight. He doesn't go around and beat up any type of person, he always has a reason. When he's not drinking or fighting he's a laid back composed guy. He often takes off his shirt when he's working on ships, it just gets in the way.
Description [detailed] or picture:
He wears the patch so that his eyesight is better at night. Even though he steals for a living, he does side jobs like building ships and is in the fishing business which keeps him fit. His dirty brown hair lays at ear length, falling into his face time to time. His skin is a tannish color from working out in the sun. His eyes are an astonishing deep blue-green that could catch anyone's attention. He wears a white undershirt with his favorite jacket. The jacket has gone through many fights and the right sleeve ripped off in one of his brawls. After the fight, he got the part of the sleeve and attached it together with a belt, the fight also came along with a four inch scar below his left eye. He has both ears pierced with rings stolen from the famous Black Beard himself (not really) He stole them from some pampas aristocrat and he also gave a pair to Kip, his wonderful partner in crime *the little monkey ^^ <3*.
History: He comes from a long line of soldiers. His father is a soldier and his brother is a soldier, he wanted to break the chain. Fighting is his specialty but not in the army, he despises firearms. When he was a child his father was always deployed, not leaving any time to bond. When his father was home all he talked about was his two sons are going to grow up to be strong soldiers. When Markus turned thirteen he was old enough to be enlisted. Markus refused and he and his father got into a huge argument. His father did not except it and told Markus that he was going to be a soldier if he liked it or not. That night he left the house leaving a note to his mother, father and brother, saying that he has shamed the family and they are better off without him. He then hitched a ride on a small ship far away from his family. He learned the ways of a pickpocket to survive and on the way he met his first mate Kip, a female monkey. After two years of stealing, he wanted to do something else. At a glance of the ship yard he knew he wanted to have his profession into building ships. He became an errand boy to an old ship master named Graidie, gradually taking over the business. After building ships for five years he wanted to travel. He gave his business to his second hand man, Read (might come into the story later), who was going to succeed Markus sooner or later. After leaving the Maiden he found his place as a fisherman on the coasts of Irland.
