R E L A T I O N S H I P S MARIANA — wip. THOMAS — under the impression that this kid needs t o be saved. believes the pirates are being cruel to him, and that he cannot defend himself, as he is a muggle. DANTE — wip. EYKOTA — cian volunteered to be a part of the witch hunt primarily because of this wizard here. believes h im and his magic are not only unruly, but extremely dangerous. VOLODIA — cian does not deal with muggles often,  and it shows in how he deals with this woman. he ha s no idea what to do with her, as he cannot use magic  to confront her like he does with the rest of his issues. THADDEUS — does not think very highly of him. he's always giving him unwanted tips, and butting heads  with him. cian truly believes he has more authority t han the other man and insults him accordingly. PIA — two words: unregistered witch. the very thoug ht of it gives cian shudders. especially considering the young girl is well into her teenage years, and hasn't re ceived a lick of formal training.

C I A N     CIAN DOHERTY — 32 — PUREBLOOD i. gryffindor alumni. ii. born in dublin, ireland. iii. zodiac sign is capricorn. iv. immediate family consists of his parents and his younger sister. v. an expert in martial magic. his technique is to overpower his opponents (therefore offensive spells are what he favors). he's always ready to see someone bleed. vi. loved to pick fights when he was younger. he's a little tamer now after a decade, but the same fire exists in his eye when he's in the middle of a scuffle. vii. always wants to be the hero. his dream is to have a portrait of himself hanging in the grand staircase at hogwarts. viii. cian spent most of his young life training to be an auror. and once he met the goal, he worked hard to climb the ranks of the council/ministry. ix. has permanent angry brows. even when he's happy, they are dangerously wrathful. he can't help it. x. always wants to be in charge. will throw an adult tantrum if he's not--it's less kicking and screaming and more standing around with a sour look and folded arms. and if you ask him if he's okay, he'll say he's fine even though he is clearly not. like a passive aggressive wall. xi. cares very little for the opinions of others. this allows him to be confident in himself and his skills, but creates quite the ordeal when his peers are trying to help him. xii. super introverted when compared to other gryffindors, but he still enjoys the company of others--as long as they're not outshining him. this doesn't mean he avoids extraordinary individuals, he just does what he can to out do them. xiii. while he is abrasive, he does have a softer side. it's very rarely seen, as it is mainly reserved for babies, women, and family. xiv. hashes out criticism as a way of showing that he cares. xv. gets motion sickness like you would not believe.  wand: aspen wood, chimera scale core, 121/4, unbending. patronus: the black bear. courage in the face of conflict, self sufficiency, and personal strength.

MARIANA ESTÉVEZ-CONSTANTINE | 26 | NAVEL LIEUTENANT | PUREBLOOD WITCH

I. born and raised in the spanish island of ibiza, to a family that consists purely of nobility and can speak three

languages: english, spanish, and portuguese. II. has such a thick accent, you probably won't know what she's

saying most of the time. III. always had a knack for sea navigation and civil diplomacy, mainly seeing that her

father was a known commander in the spanish military. IV. got married at the age of twenty-one and, much to

her family's discontent, immediately packed her stuff to move her life to england in order to be with her husband.

joined the ministry naval soon after that, didn't take them long to realize her worth. V.  a very honest woman

who tends to be more stubborn and persistent than she is harsh. VI. hella underestimated all the time because

she's pretty, but she definitely has the skills to back up her rank. VII. does not have a bad bone in her body and

 pretty much does everything for the betterment of others, which is probably gonna get taken advantage of...

who knows. she's just too good for the cruel world.

  

THOMAS BARNET — 23 — MUGGLE MEDIC
i. if he looks stressed out, he definitely is. ii. WILL tear up if you yell at him, there's literally nothing he can do to
stop it. iii. born in london, england. traveled to the colonies in an attempt to finally free himself of his
parents expectations. wanted to become a doctor... but... was super squeamish at the time, thought everything w
as hopeless, and attempted to return back home with head hung low. however, his ship was seized by
pirates. iv. in an effort to save his life, he convinced the crew that he was a vital asset as a medic--and has been o
n the seas ever since. v. totally the type to fake it until he makes it. vi. still gets a little squeamish at the
sight of serious injuries/infections, but he's learned to stomach it. vii. if he were a dog, he'd be a nervous ass chi
huahua.  viii. can't grow facial hair for the life of him.

DANTE BRISTOW  |  30  |  PIRATE FIRST MATE  |  MUGGLE-BORN

I. definitely a hothead in every sense of the word and doesn't like being told that he's wrong. it's
his way or the highway. really needs to be smacked upside the head tbh. II. an asshole amongst
assholes. III. half british, half nigerian; the bastard son of a high-ranking english officer. his mom
died during childbirth and his father took him to england afterwards as a mercy before leaving
orphaned. IV. volatile, hella threatening, and has a big fat mouth. does not know the definition
of discretion no matter how many times it's taught to him. V. wears his heart on is sleeve though
so at least one can always tell what's on his mind. also can't keep a secret to save his life--well
unless it's about himself. doesn't disclose his own history without a fight. VI. has a thing for
kids though, for some weird reason. they all love him and somehow he's good with them.

EYKOTA   HARVEST

                     steady feet don't fail me now                                                     
i. eykota "red elk" harvest                ii. male                iii. native american                iv. pureblood                v. wandless
                                                                                                                                                                                                        

Eykota was born and raised in the eastern plateaus of America. He is currently childless, but married to a beautiful woman whom he loves dearly. He is not unfamiliar with magic, as his tribe has used it for the many generations that they've had it. He is dedicated to his traditions and a loyal person.     Eykota's build is lean and spry. Being one of the head trackers, he is very swift with climbing trees and setting traps. He moves with a silence about him and accidentally sneaks up on people often. More often than not he wears his long hair loose but will occasionally braid the front out of his face. ❝ C I A N                                                  He... Is not a fan of this one. Let's just say he made a few cultural errors when he was in London and made an enemy. Real beef. ❝ M A R I A N A                   Indifferent. He admires her knowledge and skill, but he rarely interacts in any other way. He doesn't spare her a passing glance in respect for his wife back home. ❝ T H O M A S  He loves this dude, okay. Like sometimes he gets salty when he thinks "modern" medicine is stupid when there's clearly an easier solution but he likes that he can both teach and learn from the boi. ❝ D A N T E  Hella salty. As much as he tries to respect authority, he hates people that abuse it. Can and will butt heads and act like a child to spite this guy. ❝ V O L O D I A  Strictly business. He doesn't talk to her much for the same reasons as Mariana. Still, she is his responsibility and he makes sure she is well on the daily. ❝ P I A He keeps a careful eye on this one. He knows what surpressing magic can do and does his best to teach her how to control it. His "primitive" wandless magic, however, tends to be scolded by the english.

BABY I COULD BUILD A CASTLE

OUT OF ALL THE BRICKS THEY THREW AT ME !


captain "hannah" odette addison clair | female | 27 years of age | slytherin
uses her magic on anyone who tries to give her grief | pansexual, leans toward men

---

She comes from a family where prevailing is everything. Odette was born to a prestigious line
of Gryffindors. The Clair family have been known for their excellence with potions & the placing
of numerous generation within well-respected ranks of witches and wizards. The Clairs are loud,
proud, and not at all ashamed of their heritage. 
So you could only imagine their shock when a scraggly muggle tangled with Marissa Claire -
the daughter of one of the most well-known gryffindor's in Hogwarts history.
Odette was kept secret from the knowledge of most of those that socialized with the Clair family.
She was fed lies, told her father died in a valiant battle against a horrendous beast, slain in the
fight that took her father's life. As the years grew by, her eleventh birthday growing ever closer,
the shunning grew worse and worse. The Clairs watched and waited, monitoring Odette's souring
attitude with every ticking second. No Clair could bear the name of Mudblood. It was simply not
acceptable! But then, at the strike of midnight on January 23rd - an owl as white as snow delivered
a letter to the mail-slot of the home on 453 Sanctum Drive.
Odette was meant to be a witch - but no gryffindor was she, but a slythering, through and through.
During her schooling, Odette grew closeted, taking her peers' taunts and shunning unkindly. Try as
her family might, her existence was no longer deniable. The Clair name was tainted - their perfect
generations blotted by a single little speck of unruly ink. Despite her intelligence, her cunning, &
her skills with potions and hexes (behind the backs of her professors, of course), Odette remained
the rat among mice. Upon graduation, Odette had no intention to return to her family.
She set out to discover the truth of her origins.
She found her father at a harbor, cackling among men and friends. She watched him, cloaking
herself from view as she studied the man her family painted such eccentric portraits of in her
youth. Arthur - the man she'd considered dead for so long, was no hero, but a snake.
The apple hadn't fallen far from the tree.
He lived the life of a Wayfinder, roaming the seas wherever he wished. He took what he
desired with any means required - violent or not. Odette, rather than disgusted, became 
hopelessly intrigued with his way of life. And os she approached him. At first, the man was
in no way appreciative of this woman's tall tale - he'd only taken her mother to his bed for a 
night of drunken fun - but the longer they talked, the more persistent Odette became in finding
him wherever he wandered, Arthur began to unravel the sickening truth. Odette was certainly
his daughter; one could tell that much just from her blaring, see-all, emerald eyes. 
With reluctance, Arthur accepted Odette onto his ship - the Orion. His crew fussed, horrendously
appalled that a woman was to share the same deck as them. Odette swiftly silenced their qualms
with a simple flick of her wrist - after she turned the cook into a rat, none of them had much of
an argument to stand by. Time grew on and Odette earned her place beside her father, just as
ruthless and uncaring as the captain himself. For once, Odette felt as if she'd finally found a 
world in which she truly belonged. 
Then, tragedy took her by the throat with a cleched fist and refused to let her go.
The battle did not last long, as Odette and several of her crewmates handled the men who dared
to pillage their ship - but it was long enough to murder the captain and many of his friends. Left
badly beaten and devastated, Odette marched to the center of the deck and took the wheel of the
ship in her hand. She would carry on her father's legacy - whether the men aboard agreed with her
leadership or not.  Taking on the name of captain Hannah - after Ophiophagus Hannah, the
fierce King Cobra snake, in honor of her Slytherin roots, Odette has sworn to conquer
every wave that dares lap at the side of the Orion.
Or she will drown trying.

relations

CIAN	she is rather neutral about this man. she enjoys his constant sour face, specifically when he doesn't get what he wants. her feelings often times run through negative valleys when he begins to stir up his attitude, as odette doesn't take too kindly to people who don't understand that she is top dog. odette definitely enjoys messing with him, however. he's fun en- tertainment when she has nothing better to do.
MARIANA	odette does not care for mariana. she thinks her spineless and weak - just another reason that women are viewed as ants beneath mens' shoes. the only reason she's around is because of her ranking. she wouldn't come to her -- resuce if she were in trouble.
THOMAS	for some reason she oddly feels sorry for thomas??? he frustrates the living piss out of her, but she can't find the heart to yell at him - which is really a shocker for captain hannah. she sees him as a bit of a kicked puppy. she'd - never tell, but damn it, odette loves puppies.
DANTE	This is the only man aboard her ship that Odette is oddly drawn to. His - attitude is mainly what earned his position on her ship. odette is not in the market or the business of finding 'true love' - she doesn't even have a mindset to believe it exists, but she wouldn't say no to a hazy night they could never remember in the morning.
EYKOTA	she absolutely does not trust this dude. something about him skulking on her ship makes odette on edge. she's always got an eye on him.
VOLODIA	she has no particular negative qualms toward volodia, but nor does she - have any positive. she could honestly care less. only reason they're on her ship is because she let them be. if they stay out of her way - who cares.
THADDEUS	she's felt a ton of hatred toward people - but never this much. odette cannot stand to be around thaddeus and frankly, she'll toss him to sharks the first chance that she gets.
PIA	actually... really likes pia. she sees a ton of potential in the girl - if only she would unravel her shell and embrace her magic. defintiely tries to be a sneky snek and coax her into using her magic like 25/8.
