Captain Colton

"'This one lives. For now.'""-Captain Colton"Captain James Colton is the leader of the pirates in The Back o' Beyond. His ship was destroyed when he attacked The Albatross, though after taking the ship, he renamed it after his old ship, The White Hart.

History
Years ago, Captain Colton was a privateer working for the Sairish government under the king. Considered a hero by the people back at home, he committed many atrocities, but was used as a scapegoat once the war was over so Sairith and Emara could quickly repair their fractured relations. For this reason, he harbours a grudge against his own country and those in charge, considering them just as, if not more responsible for what he did than himself.

According to Sawbones's story, his first crew were killed by the navy, and only he and his first mate were brought back alive. They managed to escape excecution, and after retrieving a few personal items from his home, he never returned there again.
