Player's Name: Veritas
Model Used: Clive Owen
Name: Vice-Admiral Sir Richard Fairfax
Age: Thirty-two
Appearance: Sir Richard is 5'7" and in excellent shape, his skin leathered and roughened by years at sea. He has short, wavy dark hair and intense, hard hazel eyes.
Family: Sir Richard's older half-brother is Thomas Fairfax, Lord Fairfax of Cameron, the right-hand of the Lord Protector.
Residence: Officially, Sir Richard's residence is Denton Hall in Yorkshire, though he currently makes his residence in Port Royal, as well as onboard his ship, the Indefatigable.
Occupation: Vice-Admiral in the Commonwealth's Navy; Knight of the Lord Protector; Commander of the Western Expedition.
Personality in Brief: Like all successful Interregnum soldiers, Sir Richard is a fanatical Puritan, demanding obedience and devotion to God in his sailors and launching a personal Crusade against sin. He's known to participate in thrice-daily prayer and has sworn an oath to exterminate "the godlessness of piracy" in the Caribbean.
Ship: The Indefatigable is the only English two-decker in the Caribbean, and is a fourth-rate cruiser bearing 46 guns.
History: Born in a famous family, Sir Richard knew from a young age that his chances of fame and fortune would rely less on family and more on skill. He enrolled in His Majesty's navy at age sixteen, and fought his way up the ranks, rising rapidly after his ship rallied to the Parlimentarians following Marston Moor.
Given the trust placed in his half-brother Lord Fairfax, the Lord Protector decided that the young but energetic and fairly skilled Sir Richard would be an excellent choice to lead the Western Expedition to conquer Jamaica and reduce the sin of illegal piracy in the Caribbean. At the beginning of 1655, Jamaica fell and the twin pirate ports of Port Royal and Montego Bay fell into English control.
