Backbeard
By Mcelligott, Matthew
Backbeard may have a new suit, but he is still one of the orneriest, smelliest, and hairiest pirates ever to sail the high seas. And his crew still likes to smash and steal things -- they just prefer to do it in style. Unfortunately, certain members of the Pirate Council dont think he looks piratey enough in his new garb, and since they are just as stubborn as Backbeard, its their way or the waterway. Unwilling to give up his birthday suit, Backbeard sets out in search of new employment. He can pillage and plunder with the best of them, but wholl dare to hire a dirty, smelly ex-pirate?
