Player's Name: Veritas
Model Used: Ewan MacGregor
Name: Jake Armistead
Age: 36
Appearance: 5'8", with short sandy hair and greyish-blue eyes, very lean, wears light, boring tans and has skin that should be light but has been turned darker by the Caribbean sun.
Family: One brother back home in Liverpool.
Residence: The Intrepid.
Occupation: English privateer; captain of the Intrepid.
Personality in Brief: Jake is a ponderous man, who seems to think steps through before he acts. His crew likes his attention to detail - he's far more likely to research a ship carrying a large bounty then lash at that then to attack random ships on the horizon. However, he is incredibly decisive when the chips are down, and is a fearless leader in battle.
Ship (if applicable): The Intrepid.
History: Jake was born and raised in Liverpool, England. His father sailed on several merchant ships, and when Jake turned sixteen, he followed in his father's footsteps. On his second cruise, the sloop he was manning was occupied by Royalist forces during the Civil War, forcing the crew to take them north on the coast rather than to the Netherlands with their cargo.
The crew revolted, and took the sloop from the Royalist soldiers, killing them or dumping them into the sea. Rather than be punished, they raised a red flag and sailed to Ireland, then braved the journey across the Atlantic, where they rechristened the ship Intrepid.
Jake started as a deck's mate, and now, almost twenty years later, is captain of the Intrepid, one of only four original crew left, the others having retired after a long but quiet career as successful privateers.
