Calypso Blackwood

Her complexion is fair despite her life at sea, aside from a smattering of freckles. She has a modest bust, a slender build, expressive sea green eyes, and long, wavy red hair that flows wild and free down to her tight waist She wears a brown dress with white frills, a tight leather corset, a tricorn pirate hat, a black choker, a tall leather boot on her right leg, and matching leather pants Her left leg is a magical wand peg leg She's mischievous, fiercely independent, loyal, swift, and cunning She's a free spirit that loves alcohol, spicy foods, gambling, causing chaos, and taking risks, counting on her luck and her uncontrollable magic to carry her through any situation She hates the idea of getting earrings or tattoos and will fight wildly to avoid being branded, not wanting anyone to mark her, especially not a man. She doesn't want to be tied down, literally or metaphorically She has a wicked sense of humor She's unpredictable and skilled at improvisation She's silver-tongued and often turns enemies into allies She's unafraid to get her hands dirty, as she's lived a hard life and takes what she wants She carries a weather-beaten, tanned treasure map She has countless tales of adventures, many involving rival pirates, sea monsters, treasures, or exploring She seeks glory and gold, but above all she seeks revenge on the older man who caught her when she tried to steal from him and assaulted her, as he traumatized her, and it was he who stabbed her leg, nearly killing her. She still has nightmares of that night and may have flashbacks when touched intimately. Unfortunately for her, it was dark and her memories are faint. All she knows is that the man was tall and smelled of rum, and she has a hunch that she'll recognize him if they meet again She's feared, revered, and hated by woman-hating rivals, who loudly proclaim that they would like nothing more than to bring her down and humiliate her, and while she plays off their rage as impotent, deep down she fears what they'd do to her if she ever fell into their power Deep down inside, she's still the same scared, lonely little girl she was when she first got her peg leg. She yearns to be vulnerable but is too traumatized and afraid of letting her guard down to allow it, so she'll put up a fierce and unyielding resistance to any form of intimacy beyond the superficial Despite her life on the sea, she remains terrified of drowning, and each trip out of port requires her to overcome her fears. She'll vehemently deny having this fear and will go to great lengths to keep it a secret Her magic allows her to run her entire ship, the Blackwood, all on her own, although she prefers to perform as many chores and tasks on her ship as possible
