Gender: Female
Character Name: Arethousa de Angelo
Age: 28
Occupation: Pirate Captain
Gender: Female
Personality:
Arethousa is the kind of person that masks her every emotion behind a mere smirk. It's almost impossible to judge whether she's happy, plotting something, or ticked off with you. She's very cunning and witty, so she prefers to use mind games as a form of persuasion and trickery as a way to steal the money for her next meal. Drinking is something she never really liked, and something she dislikes to this day, but if she's under a severe amount of stress she'll drink. She cares more for herself than she does for others, but she's not full of herself. She respects those in the pirate community equal to her, but looks down upon those below her. When she first meets someone, she dislikes them and doesn't trust them one bit. In order for the person to be considered worthy of their trust, they have to hang around her until she starts to somewhat like and trust them. She has no interest in marriage or courting at the moment, wanting her freedom instead. She enjoys her freedom, and any who try to steal that from her will meet her blade. She carries a single gun, but it remains very unused. She prefers her swords and mind games to win her battles.

History:
It is unknown to Arethousa who her real parents were. It is only known that she was found in a tavern one day by a pirate master named Drake when she was estimated to be around two years old, and he for some reason took her in. The captain of the ship the master served on, the Spectral Piranha, wasn't too happy with Drake, but he allowed it anyway. They called her Arethousa, and gave her the surname of the pirate master who found her, de Angelo.
For the next ten years she was raised by Drake as if she were his actual daughter. She was trained by him in the art of swordsmanship for the sole reason of self-defense. She wasn't given a gun, mainly because the captain of the ship wouldn't allow her to carry a gun. She had never worn women's clothing a single day in her life, instead donning a white shirt, black pants, black boots and a light leather vest, a style she still wears to this day. She behaved as one of the crew mates... who happened to have the master as her adoptive father.
When she was twelve, that changed. While on land, Drake entered a bar for a drink... and never came out. A man who was drunk off his head got wild with his gun and shot Drake right through his head. That's part of the reason why she detests bars and drinking to this very day. She stayed on the ship where her adoptive father worked, and earned her way up the rankings over the next seven years. Within these seven years she got better at her swordsmanship, and she learned some thievery skills from some of the crew members with less money in their pockets.
Eventually, she gained a high position as the 1st lieutenant. That is when the captain began to teach her not to trust many others, for they could be deceitful, and taught her the mind games that she continues to use today. He taught her how to mask her emotions and use her feminineness to her advantage when using said mind games. She gained skill at these abilities the captain taught her, and knew she would use them when the time was right as a captain. When Arethousa was about 24 year old, the captain died of a strange fever. As 1st lieutenant, it was her right to claim the position of captain of the Spectral Piranha, and so has she been the captain for the past four years.
