Baptized in blood and fire, he's a buccaneer captain of the Caribbean in the seventeenth century. Those were adventurous years, when men dared to seek their fortunes between the deadly horrors of the Spanish Inquisition and seas infested with cut-throat pirate ships.

Shark was such a man, an adventurer who had faced Henry Morgan at Panama, escaped from the Barbary Corsairs, and sailed through countless battles across the Spanish Main.

He considered his life merely a ticket to an uncertain future, hopefully filled with good wine, chests of gold, a fiery woman or two... and a sturdy ship to meet the enemy and a never-ending horizon.
