Personal history

Piper and her twin brother, Smithison lived with their parents in a small port town. They were average class and worked for everything they got. But a plague epidemic sweeped across their kingdom, and the king refused to “waste” resources on smaller villages and lower classes. Soon their parents acquired the plague and died from it, leaving their children only the house and a few hundred units. Piper and Smithy fell into life on the streets for a while once the house was sold to pay off debt and the units dried up from necessities. However, one day a small ship came into port lacking many crew members who had died from the plague during the voyage. It offered board and food in return for work, so the siblings gladly joined. Once out on the sea, their mourning finally faded and they began to love seeing the world.

Employment

After her parents death, Piper moved in and out of jobs until finding a place on The Ivy Lion . She became the Captain but has been unemployed since the incident. On Odd haven, she lives quietly with few hobbies.

Accomplishments & Achievements

When Piper and Smithison joined the crew of a merchant's ship called The Ivy Lion , the captain, Captain Deanpar, took a liking to them. The siblings soon found home on The Ivy Lion , and their fellow crew members were like a new family to them. Smithy took up bird watching and Piper was trained in the art of sword fighting by some mildly educated sailors. Captain Deanpar died from a heart attack 5 years later, and left the role of captain to Piper. She cherished the gift and under her leadership, The Ivy Lion prospered.

Failures & Embarrassments

One day while in the midst or transporting a new stock of goods, they were attacked by pirates. Piper hadn’t been trained in combat situations, but she tried her best at commanding the deckhands and emergency canons. For a while, they held the pirates back, but they were much more prepared and the Ivy Lion’s ammo was soon drained. The pirates bordered and slaughtered nearly all of the crewman. Once the pirates had collected what they wanted they blasted the Ivy Lion into pieces.

When the pirates attacked the Ivy Lion, a brute sliced her twin brother's throat in front of her. Piper floated for two and a half days before being swept onto a beach with a tide. Piper isolated herself and believed all the crew member's families blamed her.
