The Pirate
(No one knows her by her real name, just her title)
I cant really say I have a image for her, but she looks like a Mermaid, like all Water Elementals, and she wears a cream-colored blouse with a brown, unbuttoned overcoat over that. Her hair is brown, and she wears a crimson bandanna over her scalp, with the rest of the hair simply flowing out of it, and her eyes are bloodred in color. Her tail is adorned with rings, as well.
Age:
She's lived for a long time, possibly around 5000 years, though she doesn't count.
Gender:
Female
Race:
Water Elemental
Place Of Birth:
In the seas of Elmora...
OCCUPATION:
She be a Pirate, obviously. XD
Personality:
The Pirate, as one might think, is a greedy person. Countless times, she has killed people just to get another treasure, or even for the possibility of getting one. This isn't to say she is ruled by avarice, and she can be a rather good ally in her own right. However, she's still an ally to watch closely, as she's obviously not above backstabbing. She's usually loyal to her crew, as long as they're loyal to her, but if the situation calls for it, she'll use them to her own ends as well.
She's quite rude and crass, and is definitely not the kind of person you'd invite for polite company. She's not usually nice even to her friends, whatever ones she may have, and is downright mean to those she doesn't know more often than not. In truth, she has nothing against naval forces dedicated to protecting civilian vessels in oceans, however, she still wont shed a tear after killing the lot of them.
Alliance:
Herself, and her crew.
Biography:
The Pirate was born in the seas of Elmora, like almost Water Elementals, and has lived there fr pretty much her entire life. From a young age, however, she was on her own, because her parents lived in poverty and couldn't afford to pay her much attention(as opposed to trying to get money to eat, that is). Since her parents couldn't ever seem to raise the money they needed, she thought it must be because they always made sure that she was the one who was able to eat, and, not wanting her parents to suffer hunger and poverty because of her, she ran away. It wasn't a easy life, begging to get enough money to eat, but she'd gotten some easy breaks every now and again, which is why she's still here today. During her childhood, she got caught up in a gang, and as she grew older, her magic power grew with her. In the gang, she learned to be less kind, and to steal, to fight, and then...To kill.
Eventually, when she was around 18 or so, the group turned from a gang to band of full-fledged pirates, and they set out marauding the ships that had back then sailed Elmora's waters. The first was a trading vessel, going from Earth to Divine. The Pirate and her friends boarded the vessel out of nowhere, using surprise as their best weapon. Once they were on board, they took out their weapons, and went at it. While it was a merchant vessel, their prey wasn't unarmed. They took out bows, short swords, and a few had lances, and then charged the pirates attacking their ship. When the arrows came, the Pirate threw up a barrier of water, freezing it when the arrows hit it, flipped it, then sent the wall of ice shattering back at them along with their arrows. A spear went for her, which she deflected with a sabre she used at the time. She cut into the man's neck with her sword, then pulled it free as another one came at her with a greatsword and at the same time using magic to pound her with a boulder. She parried the greatsword and, using magic, she threw up a barrier of ice to stop the boulder. One of the other pirates finished off the Earth who tried cutting her in half with a broadsword, and she slithered(thats about as close as I can think that a mermaid would be able to most about on land...) to another Earth Elemental, this one she stabbed from behind. She was then set upon from the side by another Earth, this one with two short swords, which she blocked one strike after the other. When it was obvious this wouldn't work out for a long while, she froze his feet to the deck of the ship. When he tried moving forward, and looked down when he realized he couldn't, she moved in for the kill, slicing a large gash in his chest. She slithered more forward, and once the majority of the Earth Elementals were dead or dying, the captain walked out of his quarters. He looked down upon all of the pirates with a look of what might be indifference, as though they were nothing compared to him. In his hand was a ornate gold and silver trident, and walked down to them, spearing one of them before he could even start a attack.
They rushed him while he tried removing the poor pirate from his trident, to which he responded by beating them with the body of the other one he'd speared. One of the marauders froze one of his feet, while another lashed at him with a whip of water. He was able to break the ice covering his foot off with the trident, but the whip still managed to get him good, right across the face. The Pirate slithered up behind him, while he was fending off another's blade, and she stabbed him from behind with her sabre, twisting the blade as well, and then taking the blade out of his back as well as his lance from his hand. She sheathed her sabre, and held the lance aloft, over her shoulder, as the others, after watching what she did, went off to check the ship for valuables. After that, they kept the ship, considering they'd need somewhere to put everything and to live(they all had their own places, so to speak, but nothing so good as the ship they'd just taken). Since she was the one who'd actually dispatched the captain, she was given the Captain's room.
Weapons: - A gold and silver trident. It was her first plunder, and holds a bit of sentimental value to her.
- The Blade of Plunder, which is the sword that controls the Pillager. Considering this, one can also consider the Pillager itself to be one of her weapons. The blade looks like this: http://images.wikia.com/pirates/images/b/bb/SwordOfTriton.jpg
Magic Level:
The Pirate is the strongest Water Elemental alive, being the Elder of Water. As such, her power is extreme, but only with Water Magic, no other kind. Considering the gap of power between her and even other Water Elementals, she is sometimes seen as a incarnation of the seas themselves, though its not true.
Fears:
- Fear One: She fears losing all her treasure, because for her, her treasure represents her life's work.
- Fear Two: She fears losing the Pillager and the Blade of Plunder, and that trident of her's, as they are her greatest treasures. To lose those represents more than losing her life's work to her, it represents losing a actual part of herself.
- Fear Three: She fears to lose her own life, for obvious reasons.

Just a note, but I've been using her(and the other Elders of Elmora) up 'til now as NPCs, and I just thought I'd want to use her outside Elmora, so yeah.
