Seras Fortune

Captain Seras Fortune (a.k.a. Lady Redd)

The bar goes quiet as the door swings shut behind her, her fiery red hair catching the light and glowing like the flames in the hearth. As she struts to the bar, conversations slowly resume, but not with the noise and exuberance of before. With twin pistols slung around her hips and an ensemble that attempted to match the fire of her hair, all tucked within the seedy bar knew that the woman was no other than Lady Redd.   She throws back a glass of whiskey as she watches her target from the corner. From beneath the brim of her hat, she surveys the scene, catching corner glimpses from the other patrons as they try to keep her from meeting their gaze. Some brave fellows come up, ask for a dance, but are shot down with a quick "That's Captain to you". Many more slink away as they watch attempt after attempt to get to her, but that's not why she's here.   Her mark finds some bravery in the bottom of his tankard, stumbling towards her with ambition on his tongue. For the first time all night, she agrees to a dance, allowing the bumbling giant to drag her to the center of the room. The band strikes up a song, her feet unmoving as she sways along to what could barely be called dancing. As the song ends, she makes her move, pistol barrel shoved into the soft skin of the man's belly. Under her control, she leads him out to her ship, her mark caught for the moment.   "I've never favored fools anyway." .

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Seras remembers little of her childhood, knowing that she was orphaned at an early age due to what many have called a "trigger happy" pirate. From then on, she floated throughout the Human Empire and Coastland, often following those that called themselves her family. Her troubled childhood taught her the ways of a pirate's life, stealing, stealth, the ways of "opportunitistic" folks, skills that would come in handy as she grew up.   At age 15, she was graced with her first pistol, a model too small for her hand, but one that sparked a fire in her eyes and venegance in her heart. She dedicated herself to learning the discipline of shooting, soon becoming proficient with a variety of firearms. With these skills, Seras struck out on her own, looking for venegance for a mother she never really knew.   During her travels, she took to the seas and the coasts, stopping pirates in their tracks, hoping to find the one that had murdered her mother. She gained a reputation, earning the name Lady Redd due to her signature color. Her somewhat violent methods led her to be captured and held in the Little Greenwood for trial, but that day never came.   Approached by the merchant of Fire & Gold, Inc., she found purpose in keeping the pirates wishing to dip into the company's profits at bay. It allowed her to search for her mother's killer while bringing some good to the world, even if it was in a roundabout way. With this backing, she cristened the ship Misfortune to help her in her goal.   With her crew and a worthy vessel in Misfortune, Seras has been able to track and stop a great number of pirates that have attempted to either sink or steal from Fire & Gold ships. Having stopped some of the most noteworthy pirates in the seas around the Northern Continent, her ship and crew often serve as additional protection for any of the Hospitality Class Light Cruisers employed by Fire & Gold, although often at a distance due to her reputation.

She's an interesting character with. I like the play on words for her ship name/surname, and her history. The introductory paragraphs are great.
