Okay so these are two characters out of the book I'm writing about Eric so I decided to bring them in as part of the Pearl crew. For simplicity sake Im just going to pretend they've been apart of it for a long while now.
*Tracey Peyton (Call him TP, only Maddy can call him Tracey)
*25 years old
*Brown hair, grey/blue eyes, tall and thin. Wears a blue shirt and tan pants tucked into
loosely laced boots.
*Withdrawn and keeps to himself, doesn’t say much, serious most of the time, excellent skill with a blade, casually seeing Maddy
TP was born in Tortuga to a 16 year old prostitute named Shelby Peyton. He and his mother lived in a small inn room above a busy and dangerous tavern. Though his mother raised him herself he was often left alone in the room or would go days without eating. He was often beaten by the men who would accompany Shelby to the room and more often than not she pretended nothing was going on. Neither he nor his mother ever knew who his father was, nor did they really want to.
By the time he was ten years old TP found companionship in the older boys who roamed Tortuga and he began drinking heavily, stealing whenever he could, and beating anyone he was told to. Most of his time was spent out in the streets and slowly he began to loose touch with his mother who seemed to prefer it when he wasn’t around.
At the age of fourteen he had cut off ties with his mother entirely and even began to sleep around. He killed his first man in a tavern when the two of them engaged in a drunken fight over a barmaid. It didn’t come to a surprise to anyone when TP didn’t care either way that he had shot and killed the man. It wouldn’t be his last killing by far and because of that he had already gained himself a fierce reputation.
One night, while drinking in a tavern at the age of twenty, a young woman came in and sat next to him at the bar. Seeing it as the perfect opportunity to seduce and steal from a beautiful young woman he attempted to steal the coin purse at her side and within an instant a knife was at his throat. He had come across Madeline Hunter, a feisty Irish woman who he befriended quickly.
The two of them became close very quickly and still to this day Maddy is the only person whom TP fully trusts. They began to drink, steal, and travel together and though he did all the killing, the two of them together had built up a fearsome reputation. Nearly a year later word made its way to TP that his mother had been killed by a man she took to her room and he headed back to Tortuga in an effort to hunt the man down and kill him but upon his arrival he discovered that the man had committed suicide. No longer wishing to remain on land his thoughts strayed to the seas and when Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl arrived in Tortuga he convinced Maddy to join him and he whole heartedly became a pirate.
*Madeline Hunter (Maddy)
*22 years old
*Wild red hair, green eyes, tall and thin. Wears a snow white shirt, red pants, and a red
leather corset and bold red thigh length jacket trimmed in gold. Wears numerous gold bangles and rings and wears large gold hoped earings
*Outgoing and talkative, is always upbeat and looking forward to the next fight, feisty and foul mouthed, excellent pick pocket and great with her knives.
Maddy was born in a poor sheep town in the hills of Ireland to her parents Leia and Bill Hunter. She has two younger sisters, Megan and Anna, and an older brother Wallace who is married with a child of his own. She was raised upon a struggling sheep farm and even as a little girl had to do strenuous work without break to keep it alive. Her family was extremely poor and there was often little or no food to go around. They slept together in their one room shack and during one very harsh winter her father Bill grew horribly ill and passed before the winters end.
Wallace had already moved to the Americas and because Leia had fallen into mental disarray Maddy was forced to take on the workload and raise her two younger sisters, as well as take care of her mother. She was only eleven at the time and because of it could no longer attend school. Her life became nothing but work and she was forced to grow up early.
By the age of thirteen the sheep farm was in shambles and her sisters were practically starving, her mother barely alive. She began to steal from the local market and from the wealthier homes to provide for her family but she was soon caught and thrown into jail. Being a beautiful girl she attempted to charm her way out of it but it was to no avail. Months had passed by before she was finally released and when she returned home she found that her youngest sister Anna had already died of starvation, and her mother and Megan were well on their way.
Maddy promised she would continue to provide for them no matter what the cost and so she swallowed her pride and made her way into the wealthy neighborhood, begging for help and swearing she would do anything for it. An older man who was well into his fifties and quite attracted to the young girl promised to take her mother and sister in, in if she would marry him.
Knowing that she had no other choice Madeline married William Delaney at the tender age of thirteen. The man was kind however and not only did he take in Leia and Megan but he took great care of Maddy, whom he treated more like a daughter then a wife. Maddy did grow to care for him, though she never found it in her heart to love him as perhaps she should have. She stayed with him until his death four years later. He had left her everything though she no longer cared to remain in this lifestyle nor in Ireland. She wanted to get away, she wanted to have some kind of a life and so she left her inheritance to her family and ran away to the Caribbean.
She flitted from island to island, picking up various skills, her greatest being her deadly accuracy with her knives. Coming across Tortuga she had only just arrived when she was nearly robbed by a young man in a tavern in Tortuga. However something about this man, whom she would come to know as TP, captivated her and they became fast friends, stealing and traveling together. Maddy is the only one who is allowed to call TP Tracey and she is the only one he trusts. Spending nearly a year in Tortuga gave her excellent skills in pick pocketing and she used them to their fullest extent.
When the Black Pearl arrived, one of the most infamous pirate ships in all the seas, TP begged her to join him upon it and with only a moments hesitation she followed him, not wishing to be left behind and now she loves the life of piracy and the excitement and thrill it has to offer.
