He is confident, even arrogant but he ALWAYS double checks his work.  He loves the stars and can name the constellations, recite the Greek myths.  He smiles and jokes but underneath he is a stone cold killer who blames others for his errors.  He has learned that the only one he can trust is himself and even then only when he has all the facts.  He can occasionally be found indulging in a pint of rum and a game of cards but he never bets more than he can afford to lose.<br/><strong>Background:</strong> Two years ago, Wendel Foster was a rising start in the Royal Navy.  He had a wealthy sponsor, who fully expected Wendel to marry his daughter. His incredible gift for recall gave him an edge over his fellows, an edge he flaunted.  It made him enemies and those enemies had no problem turning his arrogance against him.  All it took was switching a set of maps that Wendel was going to study and replacing them when he was done.<br/><br/>The ship he was piloting ran aground.  In the inquiry, it was determined that Wendel had relied on his memory rather than consulting the charts that clearly showed the shoal he'd hit.  His career was ruined, his mentor cut him off and ended his engagement.  His enemies laughed.  Wendel lost his temper and killed three of them, shooting one, stabbing another and beating the last to death with a rock.<br/><br/>Knowing that he would hang for what he'd done, he took ship with the first vessel leaving London.  It took six months for him to make his way to Port Royal and in that time, Wendel was left long behind, replaced by Devon Black.  He's had several run-ins with the Royal Navy recently, so he's taking the plunge and becoming a full pirate. It didn't hurt that the captain is a gorgeous red head with the fire to match.   <br/><strong>Strengths:</strong> Photographic memory, literate, strong swimmer, skilled with cutlass and pistol <br/><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> Overconfident, Hunted, Hot temper<br/><strong>Ons &amp; Offs:</strong> ONS: Redheads, a good fight  OFFS: Rape, extorted sex<br/> <br/></span>
