Jacqueline Revenor was born from a wealthy family in Northern Europe. Her father being a sailor always made such an impression on her and the life of the sea appealed to her so greately that she decided to go live the life of a pirate.
She found a way to sneak aboard a pirateship and made her way quetly to Turtoga. Though in the beginning living a major culture shock she adapted quickly and began a meager way of living by becomming a barmaid. Soon she became tired of this live and aspired for more. While working hard in the bar she started to develop a plan to become part of a pirate crew. Unfortunaly she was discovered by an sailor in disguise who was send to find her. He took her home and blew her cover as barmaid.
Her parents took her in again and this time under a close watch, forcing her back into her sophisticated life. Feeling she still hadn't made her goal to become a fullbrooded pirate she ran away again. She dressed up in old brown cloths, cut of her hair and carefully hid her womanhood. She got a place on a simple V.O.C ship that was heading for India under the name of Jack Raven. The ship would never reach it's destination. While well underway the ship was attacked by "The Eye of the Storm". Tucked away in the kitchen Jacqueline never fought along when they were boarded and was captured alive by pure luck. Quickly she asked for the right of "parley" and was granted it with some reluctance. By carefully choosing her words she managed to arrange a place on board as a deckswapper. Within a year her cunningness made her climb up the social ladder and obtained the position of First Mate.
The captain who was an old man by now became less succesful in his undertakings by the day. When dissatisfaction grew among the crew Jack lead a mutiney and realised her dream by becoming the captain of a ship. Soon Jack 'the Raven' was the well-known cunning captain of "The Eye". After many succesful raids misfortune found her again and she was betrayed by her own crew after they discovered he was in fact a woman. Left abondoned on an isle she was found by a marine ship after two weeks. Taken back to her home she used her influencial position to get herself a Marine Ship build to the likeness of the orginal "Eye of the Storm", only faster and more agile. Giving away the position of the orginal "Eye" she made sure it was destroyed by her father in the Navy. Living her life of wealth again she found herself torn between the two distinct ways of living. Using a small sailingboat she got from her father she regulary travels back to Turtoga un search of a crew and a ship she can use to reclaim the improved version of "The Eye" as the pirate captain Jack Raven.
