Sorry its taken so long!  I kinda got carried away!  Here's my bio! Name: Sonja McCreed Age: 25 Race: Muggle Born Witch Position aboard: Captain Appearance:  Personality: Captain McCreed is a strong, independent woman. Due to past experiences she has a hard time trusting people. Those that do earn her trust find that she is a very dependable and fiercely loyal woman. Those who have the privilege to sail aboard her ship will find quickly that while she is fair and she expects all jobs to be done according to her specifications. At times she may seem brazen even harsh but she believes in telling it like it is, even if it sometimes gets her in trouble. Background: Sonja was born into a low class working family in a small town called Harborside. Her father worked as the Dock Master’s assistant while her mother was a seamstress. Being the only child Sonja went to work with him and he taught her at an early age that hard work was the only way to get anything in this world.
When Sonja was 11 two strange vessels came in the night. One, The Dark Dragon, attack and destroyed the little town of Harborside, and then the pirates aboard came to shore and killed all those that they could find including Sonja’s parents. While hiding in a cellar, Sonja was discovered by a man named Captain Gerard. He took her to his ship, The Tigress, claiming that he was following the Dragon to try and stop her but was too late. Sonja was instantly infatuated with him and believed every word he said.
Captain Gerard gave her a home and a job aboard his ship and taught her all the things he knew. As the years past she built relationships with everyone aboard and learned everything she could about ships, fighting, and being a pirate. Sonja worked and fought alongside Gerard until she turned 20. Upon her 20th birthday Gerard asked her to marry him. Sonja was overjoyed and happily accepted. The night before their wedding, another ship came and their Captain requested an audience with Captain Gerard. Sonja was curious to who the man was and why he wanted to speak with her fiancé. That’s when Sonja learned the truth. Gerard had been in league with the man these past many years, and they were both responsible for the massacre at Harborside.
Feeling utterly betrayed Sonja went on the war path. Only a few managed to escape with their lives, both Captains were not among the living. She set fire and sank both vessels and then spent 10 days at sea. Sonja exhibited some strange abilites that night, abilities that she had had since turning 11 but had decided to hide. It was because of these “magical” abilities that she believes she was able to survive. Finally, she washed up on shore near Port Royal, where she decided that she needed a new ship. For three years she worked, slowly gathering the tools and materials that she needed. Then she spent another year building what would become one of the most feared vessels ever to sail the seven seas.
Now she sails with a crew of her own and runs things as she sees fit. While her skills and morals make her a fit Captain, her past makes her deadly adversary. All betrayers beware.
