 Kat Truewalker was born in Portsmouth, the daughter of a family of seafarers. Sadly, her father fought and died in the War of the Spanish Succession and to avoid her brother being press ganged into the Navy, her mother sold their remaining land and they set sail for the Caribbean. They were hoping for a life free from crippling taxes and oppression.

On arrival at Port Royal, Kat (disguised as a boy) was enrolled at the Port Royal Naval Academy, the premier sea faring school in the region. Her brother, George, bought a small ship and began trading with the outlying islands, particularly Raven's Cove. For a few years life was good for the family, the climate and the freedom suited them well. Then things changed.

With the arrival of Lord Cutler Beckett in the Caribbean, George was approached by the EITC, who were seeking payments for the use of the trading ports that George frequented. The charges were crippling and George worked harder and sailed more often in order to meet the payments. Kat left the Academy and joined her brother on the High Seas.



Kat became proficient on the cannon, and the pair began to plunder EITC and Navy ships to supplement their income, always lone ships, always on quiet seas. Kat was able to hone her skills and the pair were so successful they bought a war frigate.

Disaster then struck once again when George succumbed to one of the many dread diseases found in the Caribbean. He was ill for many weeks and Kat spent the time searching for a cure, even visiting Tia Dalma for help. It was this visit that led to her meeting Jack Sparrow in the Faithful Bride on Tortuga. She needed gold and rare iingredients for a potion that Tia said might cure George. Kat had heard rumours that Sparrow was a wily and cunning pirate, who might help for a price. Sparrow suggested that she embrace piracy and fight alongside the Brethren Court to defeat the dreaded EITC as well as Jolly Roger, who had laid waste to Raven's Cove. In return he would give her the location of these rare and powerful ingredients that she needed to cure George.

It was on one of these hunting trips that she came across Olde Grim Jack, the GM of Grim Englishmen Guild. Having heard rumours of this notorious mercenary and his merciless Guild, Kat was wary at first, but keen to take help wherever it was offered. Olde Grim Jack was charming and knowledgeable about arcane law, he was a voodoo master and a powerful pirate. He took her under his wing and trained her in voodoo and encouraged her to become a master captain. Under his tutelage, Kat became a confident and daring sailor, facing the worst weather and the most treacherous enemies and succeeding. She learned about the secrets of



the Caribbean that weren't common knowledge and how to exploit the many potions sold by the gypsies. The two quickly became inseparable, forging a strong partnership plundering and looting throughout the High Seas.

Kat eventually joined the Grim Englishmen Guild, and took on the role of Guild Trainer and Second in Command fighting alongside Olde Grim Jack and all the Grim Englishmen. She is still searching for that elusive cure, but it is sadly too late for George, who died at the hands of Jolly Roger in one of the invasions of Padres del Fuego. This is one of the reasons she can often be found fighting Jolly Roger with a fervent wish for revenge. Kat is now seeking legendary weapons to help her in her fight against Jolly Roger.



Kat loves to plunder EITC, Navy and Skeleton ships. She has 18 famed weapons and has mastered all the skills. Her favourite things are to go adventuring with Olde Grim Jack, keep her skills sharp by challenging other pirates in pvp, encourage the younger pirates in the Grim Englishmen Guild and fight Jolly Roger.

Since her mother died, Kat now roams the Caribbean on board the Dark-water Witch but can be sometimes found on Raven's Cove or Padres del Fuego.
