Name: Randy Bowman, aka: Bow
Rank: pirate, shipmen
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Personality: He is stubborn and single minded. If he has a goal you can bet he won't stir away from it
Physical Description: Meek, small, seemingly frail, He can and has taken a lot of abuse from fellow shipmen and that has toughed him up over the years.
History: He is one of the several bastard children with the misfortune to be raised on Tortuga. His mother was a dutch sleeper, so his father is pretty much unknown. There are some advantages from being raised on Tortuga one being that you can get sword lessons for free, just have to talk to the right people. Since he was ambidextrous, he learned how to duel with both hands, first learning how to duel with each hand then he tried with both hands and found that it was a art he could try to master. He is not perfect at it, and is basically learning by trail considering it is hard to find pirates that duel wield.
When he was old enough he served some time as a cabin boy on several ships, his biggest job was typically scrubbing blood off the deck after a battle, and taking abuse from the pirates. When he grew up abit he was trusted with being a powder monkey, he didn't do to badly at that, but still did little more then clean and load the cannons. He doesn't know how to read but can speak English, and Dutch, also since he was raised on stories he will pretty much believe anything you tell him since. To him mermaids, dragons, and other sea-beasts are as real as the sails on the Ships. His mother always told him that once they get rich enough she will take him off to a Island of treasure and faeries, and she would never have to work the streets again.
When he returned to Tortuga after one of his adventures he found his mother sick, she had caught something from a sailor and it later killed her. Being raised by hookers should have made him very disrespectful of women, but it only made him dislike some women. Basically the competition, so he grew very close to his mothers circle of friends. Even though he also blames them for him having more famine qualities, like being so skinny, and unable to grow a proper beard. Although he blamed his mother for much of his misfortune, he also had allot of good-times that he wouldn't trade for anything. Although they did used to dress him up like a little girl, unfortunately for Randy he still would look good in drag.
Strengths: He is swift and had to pin, and has dedicated most of his life to studying swordsmen ship in order to make up for his weakness. Ambidextrous
Weaknesses: Is physically pretty weak and in a all out brawl will most likely get trampled. Without his swords he is easy pray. He is fairly gullible, and believes the majority of the rumors he hears.
