Hi! I'm Cpt. or Gov. Roger Decksteel. My loyalties are to the crown of England. This is my story!

Roger Sebastian Augustus Harrington (not related to Samuel Harrington in any sort of way), was born on June 15, 1712 in Madrid, Spain. His family was very poor and his father could never get a job, so the family constantly migrated. They went from Madrid (where they were staying during Roger's birth), to France and from France they went to the United Kingdom. They stayed there for a while until Rger's father, Augustus, relished up enough money to board a boat to Scandanavia. They walked through Scandanavia, sometimes stopping and resting in Farmers barns without permission. They finally reached Russia, where Roger's mother, Annette, had a big, wealthy, powerful family in St. Petersburg. They stayed in St. Petersburg for many years. Roger went to school and studied Science, Politics, and Language.When Roger learned to Speak English, his High School Teacher, Mr. Swirlov, nominated Roger to go to a university in London. Roger accepted greatly and he couldn't thank his teacher enough. Roger said his goodbyes to his family and friends and boarded a boat to London, where he enrolled in St. Mary's University for Boys. He made friends quickly and became a very popular student. He excelled in his subjects, especially swordplay. Then, one Spring day towards the end of the school year, Roger spotted a poster that read, "Come Study in the Caribbean! 'Tis Will Be the Time of Your Life!". Roger signed up and luckily he was chosen. A few weeks later, he was packed up. He wrote a letter to his family in St. Petersburg saying his goodbyes again. Then. Roger jumped on a ship and began his long journey to the British controlled island of Port Royal. When they were almost there, a shp was spotted in the distance. It was a War Galleon and the students assumed it was a Spanish Trading Ship. As os got closer, they realized that to their horror, it was a Pirate ship. The ship had its name of the port side, the Red Dancer. The black flag of the Skull & Cross-bones was raised. The cannons opened up and a stream of broadsides hit Roger's ship.Roger's ship was quickly disbled and boarded. About 19 pirates, heavily armed, boarded the ship and killed many teachers as well as students. Luckily, Roger and a few others were taken captive and out to work aboard the Red Dancer. After about a week working on the Dancer, an EITC Behemoth came in sight. It fired and disabled the Dancer without a trace and boarded the ship. They showed no mercy, killing all of the pirates on board. They then took Roger and the rest of the workers and put them on board the Behemoth. Roger asked a crew mate where they were headed. A Mercenary responded. "We're headed back for Port Royal. The shift's over." Roger sighed with relief as the big ship came into harbor. He bought a small little town house with a maid named June in it. A few months after living in Port Royal, Roger found a guild called Francis Brigade. He quickly took interest and joined their ranks. He and many other soldiers fought bravely against the Co. Empire. One cold winter night, Roger was at an outpost on Padres del Fuego when the Co. Empire attacked.They didn't kill anyone, but they took them and trained them as EITC assassins. After many many months in the EITC, Roger went missing. He came back and found out that the Co. Empire had gone extinct. After that, he floated through guilds, waiting to find one he liked. He spent regular days killing undead and hanging out at bars. One afteroon at the King's Arm, Roger saw the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. Roger, who had a very flirtatious, went over to her and used one of his pickup lines. She giggled and Roger bought her a drink. They became friends and exchanged names and life stories. Her name was Samantha Goldshot. After weeks of being friends, Roger couldn't resist and asked her to be his girlfriend. She was happy and gladly said yes. Soon after, Roger re-joined the EITC. He confessed this to Samantha. She was disappointed but loved Roger anyway. After many months of dating, Roger proposed, she said yes and they were happily wed on Driftwood Island. Roger and Samantha had two kids, Emily and Anna. A few months after Anna was born, Roger was elected Governor of Cape Town, South Africa.He was a great leader to the city. He then lef as his term was over and began to campaign more in Politics. He then ran for another Governing term and was elected as Gov. of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Roger has two main titles. They are.... Captain Roger Decksteel of the East India Trading Company (though he likes to be called Captain Steel). His other one is Governor Roger Decksteel of South Africa. His favorite nickname is Deck or Steely. More to come!
