Chris shoots Harrington
Chris Swordbones, true name Chris Crane is a pirate, born in the mid 1600s. He is on the Top 10 Most Wanted list for the EITC. Some wish to recruit Swordbones, others want to kill him. By the time of Jack's search for the Fountain of Youth, he is 82 years old. The only reason he still looks like he is in his 30s is because he had a cursed Aztec Coin when he was twenty-three. He lifted the curse around age 50 to taste, feel satisfied, and generally feel happy, but still kept his young physical form. Several more times he claimed his coin again, then several years later lifted the curse. After the battle of Isla de Muerta, he retrieved it again. He still has the coin, and has learned to live with the curse. Despite this, some of his enemies have the capacity to kill him... Rumor has it that it is something to do with the metals being used by his enemies. It has been confirmed that, due to the effect of his cursed weapons, he can be killed by any Cursed weapon.

Early Life
Chris Crane was born November 8th, 1668. Not much is known about his early life, but it is known that he was born to James and Alexandra Crane, with two brothers, James and Richard, and one sister, Jade. Due to a financial crisis, James was forced to resort to piracy to cover his family. Unfortunately, the EITC believed Chris would be a threat as well due to him assisting his father, making the EITC attempt several times to arrest and hang him. His parents successfully killed the soldiers that came to arrest him, and decided it would be best to train him to use a gun and a sword. At one point, during training, EITC assassins stormed into his home, opening fire on Chris and his family. His mother was fatally wounded, but the rest of the family remained. During the fight, the father was shot in the heart, and told his kids to get out. The four children ran out of the house, with Chris taking the family dagger with him. They stowed away on a civilian transport ship, living in several countries for a while. Eventually, when Chris was 22, he and his siblings boarded a ship, and lived a new life in the Caribbean. The four split up eventually, living in separate areas of the Caribbean, where Chris eventually befriended the notorious Jack Sparrow. Afterwards, he changed his last name to Swordbones. He has given out the reason for his name change before, though no longer speaks about it because of the shock from everyone who heard it. In fact, somebody threatened to cut out his tongue and hang him by his hands for life if he mentioned it in his presence ever again.
Spain
At some point, Chris had become part of the Spanish. He learned to be like them, talk like them, and fight like them. Soon, he ended up as a Spanish Lord. In the Black Buccaneer stories, Chris is sent to kill Black in Chapter 2, to capture and/or kill Black. During his attempt to kill Black, he was forced into helping him and French Lord Lawrence Daggerpaine when they found themselves facing the EITC, Blackbeard, the Kraken, and many more obstacles. Chris was a cruel leader, but was excellent in combat. Several times fights broke out between him, Lawrence, and EITC Lord Johnny Goldtimbers, but they were always forced into teaming up again. Eventually, during his attempt to kill Cutler Beckett, he only wounded him, and during his escape with Black and Lawrence, he was shot. The shots didn't hit any major areas, but he feigned death and fell off a dock. He clung to the back of the ship Black and his allies stole, and waited for them to reach a chest that held a legendary weapon. Immediately, Chris betrayed his allies to steal the sword, finding himself in a four-way duel with Johnny, Lawrence, and Black, all four trying to kill each other for the sword. Johnny was the first to fall. Chris was stabbed by Lawrence, and feigned death. He narrowly evaded death by using Holy Water, which he also used to save the Spanish Admiral, Cortez. Later, he was forced to return to Spain... More info coming soon.
Life as a Pirate
Chris was on a ship leaving Padres del Fuego at one point, where they eventually docked in Port Royal. Chris didn't know it was controlled by the Navy until it was near the island. However, he figured the Navy wouldn't recognize him, as he looked much different. When asked for his name, he replied with his true name. Unfortunately, an EITC soldier, the same one who led the soldiers that killed Chris's parents, recognized the name, and quickly tackled him, confiscating his Traitor's dagger in the process. Chris lived in a jail cell for years, scheduled to be hanged only a few hours from this time. Eventually, he started hearing explosions from outside his cell, and suddenly a wall exploded, knocking him out. When he awoke, Jack Sparrow was in front of him. After Chris came to, Jack introduced himself, and Chris recognized the name. He reminded Jack of who he was, then left the cell.
Swordbones fights the EITC
Eventually, after speaking to a couple who were leaving the island, he reached Captain Bo Beck's ship. Minutes after, the cursed Jolly Roger appeared, killed Bo Beck, and sent Chris on his way.
Swordbones eventually reached Port Royal when a smuggler ship found him floating in the ocean, where he went to an old warehouse to steal food. Suddenly, he encountered William Turner, who spared him when he realized he was friends with Jack. After Turner gave Chris a sword, he left the warehouse, where he met Tia Dalma, who was waiting outside. After a conversation, Swordbones used a stolen release order, marked by Elizabeth Swann, to escape Port Royal on a Light Sloop. He sailed for almost a year, aiding Jack Sparrow on the Pearl even to the Kraken attack, eventually encountering Barbossa, who gave him a flintlock pistol. Swordbones spent years plundering, and, when taught to use magic and Voodoo, he upgraded his pistol to a Holy Pistol, acquired various Voodoo Dolls, 3 powerful Voodoo Staves, a Bayonet, a Blunderbuss, and others. Eventually, he started upgrading his Frigate, the Black Demon, adding more and more to it before it became a War Frigate. He then painted the sails Black, and painted the ship itself Black, Green, and Blue (though it looks normal in-game... thanks a lot POTCO xD). At some point, his brother, James Swordbones, was reunited with him, where they sailed on the Black Demon. One day, however, James disappeared from the world, and wasn't seen for years. After creating a clan and leading it for years, Swordbones himself left the Caribbean for years, then returned again on an invasion on Tortuga, around September. Swordbones helped defeat Jolly Roger, then eventually acquired his first Voodoo Staff.
Swordbones, now celebrating the victory, met the leader of the clan Inferno, Ned Yellowbeard. After being invited, he agreed to join Inferno, where he served them for a long time. During his time in Inferno, he went to the mysterious Isla Tormenta, which he had been years earlier. After killing a Thrall Captain by strangling it and then shooting it, he found a blade in it's belt. He took it off, and when he swung it, a black trail followed it. After leaving Isla Tormenta, he put the blade of his newfound Deepwater Sword onto his own sword, removing its blade. He showed his new sword to his guildsmates, and they looked at it in amazement. It wasn't very long until
The fight is ended quickly with a Mercenary being burned
Chris discovered his Traitor's Dagger in an EITC outpost. Believing its head officer to be the one who stole it years earlier, Chris murdered him with the dagger. Months later, a fight ensued on Tortuga again, led by an undead general, who didn't make himself known until this time. During a meeting in the Faithful Bride, at which place James Swordbones returned, this general burst through the door with his lesser skeletons. During the fight, the general tried to shoot Jack Sparrow, who was able to get out of the way. Unfortunately, the shot that missed Jack struck James in the head, killing him almost instantly. This fueled Chris's anger, and he fought off the invasion with several other pirates. After another fight on Tormenta 2 months later, Chris Swordbones met a man called Captain Skull X, who invited him to his guild.
The assassination
Chris turned down the offer, but kept it in the back of his mind. Chris remained in Inferno for a few more days, but left the guild, joining Skull's Marines, a military-based guild, owned by Skull himself. In this guild, he found it better than Inferno, and was eventually made Third in Command. It wasn't too long after where he was made the Co-leader of the guild. Recently, however, he raided an EITC camp, the same one that the Marines visited only days ago. At this camp, he was greeted by a fight, which was ended quickly, resulting in Chris taking the camp as Marine territory. He found another camp on the other side of El Sudoron, and it was owned by an EITC Commander. Chris recognized his face from a picture. The Marines had been tasked with killing him for 30,000 gold. a shot to the Commander's forehead and a smoke grenade that blinded his guards was all Swordbones needed to complete his task and take the body with him.
The following day, Chris had heard an EITC plot to wipe out all pirates, as well as plans for a new EITC weapon and fortress, a ship more terrifying than a Ship of the Line, and that the plans were being stored in Fort Dundee.
The intruder
After hearing this, Swordbones got into an EITC uniform that he stole a few years back, and managed to get past the first few guards. When one of them recognized his face, though, he was forced to kill the guard. After getting to an office in Fort Dundee, he was about to enter it, but a guard refused to let him, demanding ID. As such, Chris had to kill the guard. Afterwards, he entered the office, and found the plans on the desk in the office. Before taking them, Chris set fire to the office, then escaped via a secret passage behind a dresser. As he ran out of Fort Dundee, he ran into the guard he encountered earlier. The guard attempted to arrest Chris when he realized Fort Dundee was on fire just after Chris visited it. He also spoke to an EITC officer, realizing the name Chris used was the name of a long-dead officer. Swordbones fought back, however, and the last thing the guard heard was the motto of Skull's Marines, as a sword was violently ripped out of his stomach. Chris then went to Tortuga, and left the EITC plans on Skull's desk in his home.
A few hours later, Chris learned that there were more plans sent to other forts. Chris got back to business in Fort Charles, disguised once more. Before he could enter, a cadet told him he couldn't, prompting Chris to kill the cadet. After warning the cadet's comrade to not make the same mistake, he entered the fortress. As he was looking for the office in Fort Charles, Chris encountered a guard, a rather arrogant one, who believed he was superior. Chris could only get the guard off his back by holding a gun to his head. Afterwards, he found the office, but a guard was there, making sure the plans would not be stolen. After Chris disposed of the guard, he stole the plans, but was halted by a guard as he left with them. Very much like the incident in Fort Dundee, the guard knew that the identity Swordbones used was of a dead officer, and as such, Chris was forced to kill the guard. As he made his move, however, the guard's yells alerted two EITC officers. They chased him through the fortress, but were unable to get him as he jumped off Fort Charles.
Die, guard!
Swordbones dropped the plans on the beach as he fell, then retrieved them when he swam back to shore. He then proceeded to burn them to remove all existence of the plans. The only existing plans for the new ship were in Skull's Mansion. When Chris returned to the mansion, a man entered the house a few minutes after Chris entered. Chris, who was hiding under a table, suddenly burst out of the top of it, and told him to leave. The man claimed the house was his now, even after orders to leave. As such, Swordbones was forced to get a dagger out...
Days afterwards, Chris caught word of more plans in an EITC-controlled cave. He managed to get there, finding a lost village in the process. He recognized the village, as he lived in it during his early 40s before his visit to Port Royal. After slaughtering the skeletons in the destroyed village, he found the cave, and the base, using his EITC uniform as a disguise. When he entered the office in the base, he attacked and killed a guard, then proceeded to loot the area. He found an old family heirloom in a crate, then stole the EITC plans before setting fire to the building. After leaving, he was accused of destroying the base, and was attacked by guards. He managed to jump over several guards, causing some to accidentally stab and shoot each other. He eventually escaped, and gave the plans to Captain Skull.
The Marines have a new 3rd in command- Mega, ex Guildmaster of Nightlock. At some point, Chris had helped in a battle of Padres del Fuego, being part of Skull's squad. After winning the battle, Chris boarded a crewmate's ship. Traveling aboard the Renegade Dragon, they were off the coast of Padres when the Renegade Dragon's captain, codenamed Dragonfury, tried to murder Chris. Fortunately for the Marine, he had some other Marines with him, who shot the traitor, and then the ship was looted. Explosives were placed in the ship, and the Marines escaped back to Padres on a dinghy.
Assault
Chris was given yet another assignment sometime after the meeting. He was given the coordinates to an island, but was not given the name. When he entered, he found a sign that said, "INFERNO territory! Keep out, intruders!" Chris, not willing to give up, ignored the sign and continued onward, along with some other Marines. Chris ordered the Marines to not commence the assault until they saw a signal, which he then explained to them. Chris continued onward, and found several guards, who where silently assassinated. They swiftly entered a base, and were asked for ID. This prompted Chris to stab the guard, and the Marines continued onward. Several elite INFERNO guards attempted to attack the Marines, but several hidden Marines suddenly appeared. The tricky soldiers were using Phantom Spirits! This was an advantage for Chris and his allies. After 45 minutes of fighting, the base was destroyed, supplies were stolen, and the Marines took the island as their own.
French Ball
Chris Swordbones eventually attended the French ball on March 19th, 7:22 PM. At some point, however, gatecrashers arrived, and caused trouble everywhere. Fortunately, the Black Officers arrived, and assisted Chris in dealing with them. Some gatecrashers allowed themselves to be arrested, and others fought to the death. After dealing with the scum, another one, Hector Raidgrin, arrived to the French Ball and caused trouble. Chris and a Black Officer, codenamed Gold Craver, chased him down, and eventually cornered Hector in an office below the Citadel, but he refused to be taken in. He pulled out a Viper Blade, only to be disarmed and cut down. Chris then took the Sabre as his own.
New era
The Marines are now working for Lord Marshal Samuel Redbeard. Chris now uses this position to enter Navy and EITC forts, however, he still remains as a friend of Jack Sparrow, often using his position to keep Jack out of jail. After attending the promotion of Dog Darkhayes, Chris was warned of an Undead Invasion, which he fought against with several other people. After Jolly Roger was defeated, Chris heard whimpering. He opened up a barrel to find a Cadet cowering in it. He hoisted the Cadet out of the barrel, telling him that he has failed him for the last time, before stabbing him with his Privateer's Bayonet. A Navy Officer then told Chris that a newly built fort now belongs to him. This new fort was built on the island that the Marines took from INFERNO long ago. News flash. The Marines are against the EITC once again. After receiving a letter in his office, he had orders to kill all EITC and Navy in his fort and on his island. Chris walked out of his office and alerted several Marines about this. They each passed it on until every member of Skull's Marines was no longer allies with the EITC. After setting up a perimeter, the Marines killed the Navy and EITC, and eventually all Navy and EITC were dead.
Imperial War
"Hermit" strikes at Rebel captain Mark, but misses.
Chris Swordbones, now known as "Hermit", played a role in the Imperial War. Though absent at the first battle, he fought in the second, killing multiple Rebels who were attempting to kill Samuel Redbeard, which Skull's Marines has allied with once more. During the fight, he faced off with two Rebels, Mark and Halle. They managed to knock him to the ground, attempting to strangle him. He simply laughed at them and pointed out he had a cursed Aztec coin. After kicking them off of him, Hermit drew his Deepwater Blade, ready to fight. Later on in the fight, he faced off with Rebel Captain Mark. They dueled in the middle of the fight, with Mark being a good match in the sword fight against the immortal Marine. Finally, Hermit managed to gain the upper hand, and cut Mark on the arm. He quickly ran from Hermit and ordered several Rebels to attack him. Hermit struck them down with a single blow with his Deepwater Blade, then went into Fury Mode, where his blade glowed with fire.
Though battling Mark, Hermit strikes at another Rebel who attempts to shoot Samuel.
As Hermit was ready to strike Mark again, a female rebel, Halle, attempted to shoot Samuel Redbeard, but was quickly struck on the chest, and she fell onto Mark's shoulders. Mark was distracted, and Hermit stabbed him with his sword. After killing multiple Rebels, the fight ended, and the Rebels in the fight panicked and broke apart, fleeing to various areas on Padres Del Fuego. Hermit and his allies chased several of them down, and after killing as many as they could, they declared the victory as theirs.
As the Rebel dies on Mark's shoulder, Hermit finishes him off.
Hunt for Mary Lash
Hermit asks for the whereabouts of Mary Lash.
Hermit has now been given a task; find and kill Mary Lash. She caused multiple problems and killed allies of the Marines. The first person he went to was Woodruff, who he asked to tell him where she was. Woodruff simply said he would not tell Hermit unless he killed several Crabs who ate his friends. After killing the Crabs, Woodruff demanded rum. Hermit was getting tired of doing people's chores, so he unsheathed his Deepwater Blade, used its Cursed Fire power, and threatened to kill Woodruff. Woodruff gave in, and told Hermit where Mary was. Hermit tossed him a rum bottle as a reward, and went to Isla Perdida to assassinate her.
Hermit finds his target.
Hermit found his target cowering in the Queen's Nest. He swiftly unsheathed his sword and cut her across the head. He showed her head to the man ordering her death, and was paid 60,000 gold.
Hermit persuades Woodruff to speak up.
Destruction of the Marines
At some point, a man known as Captain Leon infiltrated Skull's Marines, and successfully destroyed it. Hermit was given instructions to find Leon and find out who he worked for. After successfully finding Leon and brutally torturing him, he found out who employed him. After stabbing the traitor and looting him, Hermit began a search for Pearson Wright. He has hired several people to find Pearson, and will offer thousands of gold to anyone who brings Pearson to him alive, his only reason being, "I wish to crucify him. He is a man who has the voice and behavior of a four-year old."
Leon survives
Unfortunately, Leon was revived by several followers, whom Leon simply saw as expendable assets. Hermit found him on Tortuga, revealing his intentions on destroying the EITC just as he did to the Marines. Leon then ran off, leaving his few followers behind. Hermit swiftly cut them down, but Leon got away. Hermit wrote a letter and sent it to Samuel Redbeard, hoping he would realize what Leon is truly up to.
Attempted assassination
After gaining information from an unknown person about the location of Leon's home, Hermit set out for it. He managed to pose as a salesman, and then picked off the guards, who did not yet know Leon was a double agent. After infiltrating Leon's home, he quickly attacked and killed a man, believing him to be Leon. He felt somebody cock a pistol behind him, and quickly turned around, slicing the real Leon's pistol in half. Leon quickly ran out the door, but was followed by Hermit. When Hermit ran out of the door after Leon, he found the Silver Freeze dagger pointed at him. He continued to duel Leon, knocking his dagger out of his hand. Leon unsheathed his Sword, only to find Hermit kicking him in the chest, knocking him off a balcony, where he landed near the exit of his home's exterior wall. Leon jumped back to his feet, grabbed his cursed Sword, knowing it could kill Hermit (though Hermit has Aztec Gold, his interaction with Cursed weapons makes him vulnerable to them), and the duel continued. Leon, attempting to execute a killing blow, was caught off-guard, where Hermit stabbed him, and flung him over the edge of his home down to the beach below. Hermit, before jumping down to check, claimed Leon's dropped daggers as his own.
Now, Hermit did some investigation with his friends. They realized Pearson was innocent in the destruction of the Marines, so the bounty was removed. Afterward, he was invited to a secret Fort to meet with Atticus Bitter, who Pearson Wright was also meeting with. Though Pearson didn't arrive, Hermit was invited by Atticus Bitter to be a Captain in the Raven Fleet. Hermit chose to give it a try, and alas, the Black Demon is in the Raven Fleet.
The Funeral
At some point, Pearson Hristov, old name Pearson Wright, had been hanged. After Hermit and several friends celebrated the death of Pearson, Hermit found a second funeral being held on a Frigate. Hermit interrupted it by firing on it with the cannons of the Black Demon. Hermit was recognized, and Pearson's friends opened fire, because Hermit had given the location of where Pearson was, thus allowing his capture and eventual hanging. After a fierce battle, Hermit docked on Isla Tormenta and hid underwater for his enemies. When they found him, he jumped out of the water and cut down several of his foes. His last target remaining was Cadet, an old friend of Pearson. Since Cadet showed rather insane behavior, even pulling his sword out at Hermit, the latter was forced to simply shoot Cadet. Hermit kicked the body, and received no reaction. He then left Tormenta to see his old friend, Ned Yellowbeard.
Saving the Black Pearl
Keeping his promise to Jack Sparrow, Hermit set out to rescue the Black Pearl from the Royal Navy. Since he was Second-in-command of the Royal Military, he had the feeling he could rescue it. However, some of the people he brought with them were pirates, and the guards denied his access. Because of this, Hermit pulled out his Deepwater Blade and got ready to fight. After rescuing the Black Pearl and sinking the Goliath, he reported to Jack Sparrow on Tortuga.
A few days after, Hermit came to a friend of his, King John Breasly of England. When he found him, he also encountered Carlos Clemente, a friend of Pearson. Carlos drew his Sword and repeatedly threatened Hermit. Hermit simply pulled his sword out of his hand and threw it over a balcony, and laughed at Carlos's pathetic attempts. Carlos then tried to start an uproar against Hermit, but failed. He then "toddled", as Hermit described it, away from everybody throwing a temper tantrum, even throwing racial slurs at Hermit, leaving everyone in a shocked (O_o)state. Hermit then attempted to kill Carlos, but he escaped. Hermit was unhappy about this, stating that, due to his cannibalistic nature, he intended on eating Carlos.
Invasion
Recently, King John Breasly gave the Marines a mission: Take out his former Lord Marshall, who claimed to still be the Lord Marshall. The Marines immediately set a course for "Lord" Harrington's island, where their invasion started with the bombing of the outer wall. After bombing the wall, the Marines killed the guards at the Fort, and came across several "EITC" soldiers blocking the entrance. The Marines attacked them with Hermit cutting down one of them quickly, then moving onto another guard. As he dueled him, the Marines dealt with their Elite. As the Marines swept across the Fort, killing the guards, Hermit went to the top to engage with Harrington. He threw a dagger into Harrington's bodyguard from behind, then kicked him, sending him falling from the balcony. Hermit jumped away as Harrington drew his Sword, and immediately engaged in a Swordfight with him. Hermit then kicked Harrington over the edge of the Fort, but he managed to survive, but with major injuries. Harrington rolled down the staircase, and got up. Hermit jumped down from the Fortress, with his Sword ready. Harrington dove to the ground, grabbing his dropped pistol, and shot Hermit in the mouth. Hermit gargled, and appeared to be dying, but suddenly stood up again, and spat the bullet back out. Harrington looked at Hermit in confusion, and asked how he did that. Hermit replied with, "You need Cursed weapons, genius", and he shot him back with his gun. Harrington fell off a ledge and into lava that was behind him. Hermit claimed his dropped hat as his own, and brought it to King Breasly, and the Marines received 500,000 gold in return.
Hunt for James
Recently, John Breasly's son, James, was caught planning against him, and shown to be insane. When Hermit attempted to arrest him, with the aide of Captain Robert, Edgar Wildrat, Matthew Blastshot, and several others, James pushed everyone down and ran out of the building they were in. He then jumped over a ledge and into the ocean, and swam away. Hermit chased after him, and pointed his Bayonet at him, saying he and Edgar simply wanted to negotiate. When James refused, Hermit and the others chased him again to a well. When James finally gave in, he was too late. Hermit drew his Deepwater Blade, activated Fury Mode, and struck him down, then tossed him down the well.
A new war
A war has begun. Carlos Clemente started to wage war against Lord Benjamin Macmorgan of the EITC. Benjamin, however, appointed the newly-resurrected Leon as his third-in-command. Hermit found Leon and the rest of the Co. Empire duking it out with Clemente and the few followers of the deceased Samuel Harrington. After a while, Hermit joined in, and pinned Clemente down, snapping at him repeatedly due to his cannibalistic nature. Clemente kicked Hermit off, and tried to attack him with his sword. Hermit managed to bite off one of Clemente's ring fingers, and took his ring away in the process as a trophy. Clemente quickly ran from the fight, vowing to return again. The Co. Empire then pointed their weapons at Clemente's last ally in the area, Gastro. He managed to escape, and the battle was held in favor of the Co. Empire. Hermit was surprised at Leon's apparent change in heart, and decided to watch him for a while.
New training
Hermit recently was hearing about the groups known as Ninjas, and heard about their appearance and fighting style. Hermit felt inspired by them, so he chose to sail to South-eastern Asia to train to be one. After many months, he found a training camp for the Ninjas, Hermit was grabbed from behind by a Ninja. The Ninja tried to cut his throat, but Hermit kicked her in the stomach, turned around, kneed her in the stomach, and finished her off with his Sword. He walked up to a class of Ninjas-in-training, and requested he could join them. The teacher told him he was unworthy, but Hermit was determined to learn the teachings. He asked the teacher how he could prove he was worthy, and the teacher chose to assign him some trials.
First he was to learn to mind his surroundings. Hermit listened carefully, and heard a faint footstep behind him. He immediately turned around and cut down two Ninjas who were behind him. Several more attacked him with their blades, but he bested them easily. After passing his trial, which took half an hour, he was to be taught patience. He was forced to wait a full day for his third trial, thus teaching him patience.
After years of training, Hermit was considered the best student, and was given his last trial: There was recently a war between the Ninjas and the Samurai. Hermit was to locate a Samurai base and kill their leader with only 4 fellow Ninjas. He infiltrated the base successfully, and killed the guards on the outside. He sent his fellow Ninjas to deal with the other guards on the outside and inside, while he was to take down the leader. He climbed on top of the ceiling, and suddenly dropped down, cutting down one of the Samurai Leader's bodyguards, then broke the other's neck in mere seconds. He pointed his Deepwater Blade at the Samurai Leader, who pulled his katana out. They dueled as the other four Ninjas dealt with the guards silently, and Hermit finally ended the duel by cutting the Samurai's Sword-wielding hand off. The Leader kicked Hermit through a window, and used his other hand to stab Hermit in the chest. Hermit looked down, then removed his mask, and the moonlight shined on him, revealing his skeletal form. The Leader cursed at Hermit and called him a Demon, but was interrupted when Hermit struck him with his Deepwater Blade. Hermit took the Leader's Armor and katana, and delivered the Armor to his teacher. The teacher appreciated Hermit, and considered him one of the Ninjas. Hermit thanked his teacher for accepting him, and told him he will return another time. Saying that, Hermit sailed back to the Caribbean to try his new training on some enemies, hoping it would aide him in the war against Carlos Clemente.
The death of Carlos Clemente
The final battle in the war against Pearson Wright's brother, Carlos Clemente, started. Hermit was on a trip to Spain, and was encountered by Captain Leon, whose neck Hermit pushed his Sword to. He lowered his Blade, and made a deal with Leon, as well as Leon's group. Hermit was to give them a specific signal to commence the coup against Pearson. Hermit sneaked into Pearson's castle, killing guards and making sure no visible marks in their uniforms were made. He tossed the uniforms out windows to Leon and his group members outside the castle, then finally got one for himself. Hermit stormed into Pearson's room, and tossed a grenade. It exploded, destroying the middle section of the floor, and the pieces dropped onto multiple floors below. The phony guards heard the sound of the domino effect, and the coup began. Hermit dueled Carlos, as Leon and his members killed the guards, and advanced to the top. The duel led to the outside of Carlos's tower, miles from the ground. The moon shined on Hermit multiple times, revealing his skeletal form, and shocking Carlos. Hermit noted that in several parts of the battle, he took multiple bites out of Carlos, taking a grand total of 3 fingers. Finally, Leon entered Carlos's room, and destroyed one of the windows onto the outside of the tower. Carlos was trapped, but he wasn't going to give up. Carlos quickly decapitated Hermit when he was in skeletal form. Hermit's body caught the head, and fell off the tower, and Leon began to fight Carlos.
Hermit, hanging from a gargoyle on the tower, head-in-hand, moved into the moonlight to fit his head on, then got out of the moonlight. The wound healed, and Hermit was ready for battle again. Carlos and Leon were on the roof of the former's tower, dueling ferociously. Hermit scaled the tower on the outside, and when he reached the top, he found Leon performing Blade Storm on Carlos. The final move of the combo, the stab, hit Carlos, who yelled in pain. Carlos kicked Leon in the groin, and was helped up by Hermit. Hermit shot Carlos in the shoulders with a double-barreled pistol, disabling his ability to use his arms to fight. Hermit and Leon, a temporary team, finished Carlos off with their Swords, and Hermit took one of Carlos's Swords as a trophy. Leon offered Hermit a position in the Spanish Government when he takes it over, and asked him to help him destroy the current members. Hermit turned it down, and left Spain while the rest of the coup began. Hermit eventually realized why Leon wanted Carlos dead, and though he was mad that Leon used him, Hermit still smiled at the memory of the duel, and eventually heard claims that Leon was stabbed to death by a man known as "Rad", though for real, Leon had escaped.
Later, Hermit went to Raven's Cove to hunt for more Cursed Swords. On his way out, he saw one of Clemente's sons, Arturo, on El Patron's ship, trying to open up the Skull Chest on-board. Hermit, remembering a bounty on Arturo, got his Sword ready, and jumped down onto the ship. Arturo got his Sword out, but chose to run from Hermit. Hermit chased after him, Sword in hand. Hermit finally managed to catch up to Arturo, and dueled him for a short time, finally stabbing his arm. Arturo, wounded, ran once again, with Hermit on the chase again. Finally, Hermit caught up to Arturo, and got his weapon ready again. Arturo prepared for the final battle against Hermit, and a long swordfight ensued. In the end, Hermit took Arturo's Sword, ring finger, and hat, and pushed him over a cliff to his death. They were shown to the man who put the bounty on Arturo, and Hermit was rewarded.
The war against Aplentia
Hermit has joined the Gen. of Peace guild, and has been enjoying it for a long time. However, he encountered a former member of Skull's Marines, Aplentia, whom Skull had ordered Hermit to kill several times. She has been resurrected each time, and is back for revenge. She joined the Gen. of Peace, and secretly told Hermit that she cannot be stopped, and that she will ruin his life. Hermit showed little fear, and spoke to Lawrence Daggerpaine. Neither of them know what to do, so Hermit simply prepared himself for whatever attack Tia would try on him.
Enjoying life
At some point, Hermit decided to go to a party with his friends on Isla Perdida. He humorously pretended to bite Lawrence Daggerpaine, an ex-enemy, who was now his friend. Immediately, his friend Bess Firebones, mistaking him for an attacker, attacked Hermit, then challenged him to a fight. Hermit agreed, confident that he wouldn't lose. Everyone created an Aura, making both of them immune to death, where instead they would just fall over, stunned. Both fought very well, mostly with Swords, until Bess got a Repeater out and shot Hermit. In the end, Bess had a score of 2, by defeating Hermit twice. However, Hermit's score was twice as much. The match was over, and immediately Bess accused Hermit of "cheating", even though there were no rules for the fight. She then tried to protect her ego by trying to change the scores. People, finding her and her ranting a disturbance, had security take her off the island for the remainder of the party.
Clemente's revival
At some point, Carlos Clemente was revived, and once again became King of Spain. Hermit was instructed to kill Clemente once and for all. Hermit sat on a cliff for hours, waiting for Clemente's Carriage to ride by. As it neared, Hermit threw a grenade. The explosion tore apart most of the Carriage, sending Clemente's advisor, Carlos la verde Sanita, out of the Carriage. The Carriage, which was flipped over, landed on a trap Hermit set up. The cleverly set up trap set off explosives Hermit planted under the ground, causing a massive explosion. Admirals Matthew O'malley (whom Hermit revived later)and David, as well as the resurrected Prince Cadet, were killed. Carlos stated he will return some day, and told Sanita to take care of the Rangers, then died. Sanita returned to Clemente's main city on foot, and brought news of his death. A search party was sent to find the bodies, but found that the bodies of Clemente and O'malley were gone. Hermit revived O'malley, as he didn't mean to harm him, and as for the body of Clemente, nobody knows what happened to it.
The end of the Clemente Era
As Hermit prepared a bonfire to celebrate his assassination of Clemente, several Spanish soldiers came out of nowhere. A brief battle occurred, and in the end, the Spanish escaped with Clemente's body.
He had been reincarnated for the last time and used the name of his stepbrother-Francis Chiphawk. His end was near. He again attempted to continue his legacy, until the once-again revived Cadet revolted against him. He was assisted in the war against Clemente by many, including Skull's Marines, England, France, and thousands of Spanish soldiers. There were several battles, though the last one was the most memorable. Many ships fought against Clemente's fleet. Both fleets clashed, and the Red Rebellion Flagship, the Wind-racer Starlight, fought against Clemente's Flagship, the Shadow Rogue, piloted by Clemente's blindly-loyal ally, Hippie, where both ships eventually were near Rumrunner's Isle. Hermit manned a cannon and fought against the ship. The Shadow Rogue managed to blow off one of the masts of the Starlight, though the Starlight caused colossal damage. Finally, the captain ordered the boarding of Clemente's Flagship, and everyone immediately got their weapons out. The Shadow Rogue was hooked, and its cannons were destroyed, so there was no worry about the ship destroying the Starlight while everyone boarded. Soldiers from both ships boarded their opposing ship, though Clemente's men were quickly killed when they got on the Starlight. Hermit killed one of Clemente's men as he swung to the Starlight, and used the rope to get across to the Shadow Rogue. A Spanish soldier ran at him, and Hermit simply flung him over his shoulders, off the ship, and into the water, where hungry fish organized his demise. A misfiring shot from one of Clemente's other ships struck one of the Rogue's masts, making it collapse. Hippie was almost hit by it, though a large chunk of wood had stabbed him in the heel. He ran at Hermit, but was grabbed and thrown through a hole in the floor, sending him into a lower level. Hermit fought his way around the ship with his allies, searching for Clemente.
Hermit looked in the Captain's Cabin, where he found rare valuables on the ship. Hermit seized several of them, purposefully making a loud noise as he dropped a golden idol to the floor. Clemente jumped out of hiding, readying his Cursed Sword. Hermit and Clemente dueled fiercely, and finally, the resurrected Samuel Redbeard burst through the door, flintlock ready, and shot Clemente. Unfortunately, the shot only hit him in the shoulder, so Clemente survived. Several Black Guard soldiers entered as well, but Hermit told them to lower their weapons and instead loot the Captain's Cabin. Clemente furiously punched at Hermit, but his fist was caught by Hermit's quick reflexes, and twisted. Clemente yelled in pain, and several more Rebellion soldiers entered to make sure nobody interrupted the fight. Finally, Hermit and Clemente seized each other, and threw themselves into the Cabin's back door, and over a balcony. They landed on a second balcony in the back that was outside of the First Mate's Cabin. Clemente and Hermit scrambled for their weapons, and resumed the duel. Hermit managed to get ahold of Clemente'e shoulders, and repeatedly hit him against a wall.
Hippie, still in the lower levels, heard the noise, and opened up the door to his cabin. He drew a flintlock and loaded Cursed rounds into it. Hermit immediately pulled Clemente in the way, using him as a human shield. Hermit ordered Hippie to drop the gun, but the latter refused, stating Hermit would just kill him and Clemente anyways. Hermit, surprised, called him a smart lad, and said that whether he puts the gun down or not, both will still die. Hippie pulled the trigger, and Hermit fell to the floor. Clemente staggered for a moment, and fell to his knees. Hermit suddenly jumped up again, shot Hippie in the stomach, then struck Clemente again, knocking him to his back. Hermit walked over Hippie, and finished him off, while Clemente jumped from his ship and swam to Rumrunner's Isle. Black Guard troops came, and Hermit ordered that they take Hippie's body for the "celebration", as he jumped over the ship as well.
Clemente finally reached Rumrunner's with few survivors, who began to despair at the possibility of starving to death. Clemente, however, stated that he left a dinghy on the island prior to the battle, and led his soldiers to it. However, several Rebels came out from the bushes, and opened fire. 5 of Clemente's soldiers dropped dead. Clemente made a mad dash for the dinghy, but was confronted by several more Rebels. Rebels and Spanish soldiers arrived at the island to fight each other, and eventually, Clemente managed to fight his way to the dinghy after 15 minutes of fighting on the island. As soon as he reached the dinghy, Hermit jumped out and surprise-attacked him. He disarmed Clemente and made a quick cut across his chest. Clemente fell once again. The fight finally finished, and Hermit ordered the bodies taken to the celebration, saying he would deal with them himself.
At the ceremony, Hermit and several friends prepared the food. He set up two buffet tables; one was for Cannibals, containing what was left of Clemente, Hippie, and several other Spanish soldiers; the other had meat from other animals, some fruit, vegetables, and crumpets. Hermit and his friend, Edgar Wildrat, Prince of England, took meat from both tables, though John Breasly was slightly bothered by his heir consuming humans, but concluded that nearly everyone at the celebration would like to do such a thing to Clemente and his lackeys. The celebration lasted 12 hours, and finally, as it ended, a familiar face was shown putting Clemente's meat in his coat. Hermit excused himself, stating he was having "an old friend for dinner", as he casually followed the man, who was none other than Clemente's Advisor, Carlos la Verde Sanita. Sanita's status is currently unknown.
New Era
The Destruction of Clemente's followers
August 17th, 1755. It has been 1 month since the battle. Carlos Clemente has been killed. His remaining followers hope to bring him back once again, and his brother, Francis Chiphawk, leads them now. Carlos la Verde Sanita, the advisor of Clemente, has managed to meet up with Francis and the rest of his followers. Sanita has a piece of Clemente's meat from the celebration, and narrowly escaped Hermit, but had many scars on his face from a fight with him. Together, the leaders of Clemente's forces, Chiphawk and Sanita, began a ritual with the meat, hoping to use it to bring Clemente back to life. However, they still required one thing - A vial of blood from Clemente's killer. Getting blood from Hermit would be risky, but the 2 leaders felt it was worth it. Sanita decided to get the vial by himself, and began his hunt for Hermit. While Sanita did that, Chiphawk threatened a local archives center, known as the PonceO'Ten Con O'fleef Wiki (library or archives center), or POTCO, for short, with being destroyed. He said he was going to use false evidence to convince a mysterious organization onto his side to help him destroy the Archives center if they didn't help him revive Clemente. Meanwhile, Sanita, knowing a secret hideout that Hermit was known to go to, Sanita went to Tortuga.
August 18th, 1755, 1:14 PM. Sanita sat in a bush, awaiting the arrival of Chris, AKA Hermit. Chris arrived to the hideout, dragging a follower of Clemente with him. He walked along the path with the still-alive Paradoxian, and Sanita followed him. Sanita found Chris at a ledge overlooking a Gator pit. Chris dropped the Paradoxian off the ledge, into the swampy pit. The Paradoxian screamed as the gators devoured him, and Chris chuckled to himself sadistically. Sanita jumped from hiding, and cut Chris across the chest. He then struck Chris over the head with the hilt of his sword, stunning his enemy. Sanita leaned Chris forward, and blood dripped into the vial that Sanita held. Sanita then pushed Chris into the pit to leave him to dismemberment, but the gators did not attack Chris. Sanita fled the hideout and Tortuga, and returned to the Paradoxian hideout to begin the resurrection.
August 18th, 1755, 11:45 PM. Sanita and Chiphawk stood before a skull idol. The ghost of Clemente was seen next to it, watching the ritual. Chiphawk set Clemente's meat in the mouth of the skull idol, while Sanita got the vial of blood. He prepared to open it, when suddenly the vial was shot out of his hand, though it wasn't destroyed, as it was made out of a strong type of glass. Sanita, Chiphawk, and Clemente's forces turned around to see the one who shot the vial. Chris stood in the doorway, alongside his leader, codenamed "Capt. Skull X". Chiphawk walked away from the idol, down a pathway. Paradoxians moved out of the way as their current leader walked towards them. Chris walked down the staircase in front of him in Chiphawk's direction.
"What are you doing here, scum?!" asked Chiphawk.
"Stopping you from bringing that narcissist back to life", replied Chris.
"Well, you've failed!" exclaimed Sanita, who opened the vial, "He comes back tonight!"
Sanita poured the blood into the Skull idol's mouth, and its eyes began to glow red.
"When this idol's eyes glow blue at midnight, Sir Carlos Clemente will come back to life. And this time, we will use our powers to make him invincible!"
Chris told him that wasn't going to happen. He drew his Sword. "Kill them all!" Chris exclaimed, as he swung at Chiphawk, who immediately blocked the attack. EITC, Navy, Marines, and other forces against Clemente rushed out of the archway Chris emerged from, weapons ready. Clemente's forces drew their weapons as well, and a large battle ensued. Sanita lifted a Sword, the legendary one-of-a-kind World Eater Blade, off the ground, and stood near the idol. Chris pinned Chiphawk down, and made several stabs with his Sword, attempting to strike his head. Chiphawk dodged each attack, and kicked Chris in the groin. Chris fell over, and Chiphawk jumped to his feet, Cursed Sword at the ready. He stabbed at the ground, and Chris rolled out of the way. He kicked Chiphawk in the face, breaking his nose. Chiphawk backed away, ordering several Paradoxians to take down Chris. The Paradoxians drew their Cursed Swords, and tried to stab Chris, who dodged the attacks. Chris cut off half of the right arm of one of the Paradoxians, disarming him, and causing him to bleed out. The other Paradoxian ran off in fear, only to be caught in the crossfire between Paradoxian and Black Guard gunmen. Chris slowly advanced towards the idol, and drew his pistol. He opened fire on one of Chiphawk's bodyguards, then threw a knife at the second. He reached the idol, and both Sanita and Chiphawk approached him from both sides of the idol, ready to fight. Both charged at Chris, and swung their swords at him. Chris caught Sanita's hand, and pushed it back, causing him to club himself in the face with his own Sword. Chris pushed Sanita down, and turned to Chiphawk.
11:53 PM. The battle was still going on. Chris and Chiphawk were dueling near the idol, whose eyes were glowing yellow. Clemente's ghost watched the two fighting. and repeatedly yelled at Sanita to get up and start fighting again. Sanita slowly rose to his feet, and collapsed again. Meanwhile, Capt. Skull X and his wife, Cherie, were dueling a Paradoxian known as Francisco, who was Chiphawk's 3rd in Command. Skull grabbed Francisco's head, and smashed his head against his. Francisco looked dazed, and Skull grabbed him by the shoulder. Cherie walked up to Francisco, and performed her infamous "groin-kicks" on him. Francisco fell to his knees, yelling in pain. Skull pulled out a dagger, and pointed it at Francisco's neck.
Chris was fighting Chiphawk still. It was now 11:59, and the idol's eyes were green. Chiphawk kicked Chris in the jaw, then pressed his Sword to his neck.
"You dare try to destroy my lord!" exclaimed Chiphawk.
"You are blinded, Chiphawk. Clemente is an evil man. He is an egotist, and he would leave you to die to save his own skin. He's a coward. Stop believing what he tells you." Chiphawk pinned Chris down, snarling, "The same goes to you, Sanita!" Chris yelled at Sanita, who has finally gotten up.
It was finally midnight. The idol's eyes glowed blue. The idol let out a blinding flash, and Clemente's ghost became more and more visible by the second. Sanita raised his World Eater blade to kill Chris, but suddenly his own eyes started glowing blue. Clemente, who still appeared to possess a blue, liquid-like form, stood behind Sanita, clutching the latter's shoulder.
"I thank you for helping me. But, just like the rest of my soldiers, you too, are expendable", said Clemente.
"Your own brothers?" asked Sanita.
Clemente nodded. Sanita turned into a blue liquid, and immediately went into Clemente, dropping his World Eater Blade to the ground. Clemente assumed a more solid form.
"Kill him", ordered Clemente, who was gradually becoming more human-like.
Chiphawk hesitated for a moment. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't tell what would happen from what actions he could possibly do; if he attacked Clemente, he may be killed. If he killed Chris, Clemente may absorb him as well. Chris pushed Chiphawk off of him, and quickly stabbed Clemente in the gut. Clemente disarmed Chris, who simply picked up the World Eater Blade that Sanita dropped. He dueled Clemente, while Chiphawk sat on his knees in despair, unable to choose a side. Chris struck Clemente on the shoulder. A flash emanated from the wound, and disappeared immediately. Chris felt stronger. The Blade was draining his enemy's life with each successful hit. Chris struck Clemente on the side. Another flash, and Chris felt his own wounds heal. Chris did a Reversed Spin Cut, sending Clemente's weapon out of his hand. Chris performed a Jump Slash on Clemente, leaving a large, glowing, vertical gash going from his forehead down. Clemente stumbled for a bit, and became a human-shaped blue liquid again. He deformed, and turned ghostly again. Chris swung at Clemente's ghost, and the hit somehow connected with the ectoplasmic body. Clemente's ghost disintegrated completely, leaving Chiphawk shocked. Half of the Paradoxians started disintegrating as well, and Chiphawk looked on in horror. Chris, after picking up his Deepwater Blade and putting the World Eater Blade away, turned to Chiphawk, who jumped up, with a crazed look on his face.
"Chris! Acknowledge that you are do-"
Chiphawk was interrupted by Chris, who shot him in the stomach. Chiphawk was still alive, and immediately shot himself in his terror. Clemente and all of his followers were gone, and there was no possible way of them returning. However, a demented laugh was heard, and cracks appeared in the ground. Clemente was using his last bit of strength to destroy the island, hoping to take everyone with him. A Paradoxian started for the stairs, and the ground opened up under him, sending him to his death. Chris yelled at the EITC, Marines, Navy, and other surviving Resistance soldiers to run, and they did so. Soldiers from both Resistance and Paradoxian forces were claimed, though many were able to reach the doorway. They ran through, and half of the surviving Paradoxians were claimed by the opening ground.
August 19th, 12:10 AM. The Paradoxian forces were destroyed. Their island was in ruins, and was slowly sinking into the sea. The Resistance soldiers were aboard their ships, sailing away. Chris stood in the Captain's Cabin of the Black Demon, looking out the windows out to the island. He turned away when the island was completely submerged. He walked outside of the cabin, and was asked by Skull on what to do next. Chris yelled out to the whole ship, "To Tortuga! Celebration at Tortuga!"
The order was passed along to the crews of the remaining Resistance ships. They sailed to Tortuga, and a held a victory celebration in the King's Arm tavern. Peace had finally returned to the Caribbean, for now.
Arrest
Chris was wandering the streets of Port Royal, searching for something to steal. Immediately, he was hit from behind by a Navy Guard's gun, and he blacked out.
Chris came back to consciousness, finding himself in front of a noose in Fort Charles. He looked around himself; People were watching. A Navy captain dressed in blue, acknowledging Chris was finally awake, opened up a scroll.
"Chris Swordbones, true name Chris Crane", said the man, "You know why you are here. You have been charged with multiple crimes against the crown."
Surely they know I'm Johnny-boy's friend, Chris thought to himself.
"These crimes include, but are not limited to: Murder, theft, resistance, destruction of personal property, plotting against the EITC…"
That was years ago, Chris thought to himself again.
"…Impersonation, piracy, and general lawlessness. On this day, your punishment for these crimes… is to be hung… by the neck until dead. Now, we are aware of your immortality, except to one specific item - Cursed items. We made sure of that with this noose. This was made just for you. May God have mercy on your soul, Mr. Crane. You die tonight."
"I'm not sure of that", Chris replied, chuckling.
The hangman pulled the lever, opening the trapdoor. Immediately, Chris spread his legs out, and grabbed the nearby guard's Sword to cut the noose. After throwing the noose off, Chris head-butted the Navy Captain off of the platform, and grabbed a bag containing his weapons. He pulled his Deepwater Blade out of the bag, and used its cursed fire to destroy the shackles on his wrists and legs. Chris then stabbed the executioner in the gut. He then dueled a Navy guard briefly before cutting him on the chest. Chris then kicked the dying guard off the platform, and ran through Fort Charles, as the civilians nearby watched in terror. Several Navy guards fired Cursed rounds at Chris, who ducked and rolled forward. Several Black Guard soldiers drew their swords, and dueled Chris briefly, the latter jumping off Fort Charles, yelling, "I'm coming for you."
The captain walked over and looked over the edge. Chris was no where in sight. One of the guards walked up to him to comfort the shaking man.
"Orders sir? Don't worry, we can find a way to keep you from being punished for this."
"It's not my punishment that frightens me", replied the captain, "It's the fact that an immortal, cannibalistic, murderous pirate just escaped my clutches, and hopes to kill m-"
The captain felt something underneath his boot. He looked under to see a glowing stone. He picked it up, and looked at it curiously.
"This looks like those gossip stones that Skull's Marines uses for communications-"
The captain was interrupted by the voice of Chris.
"You are going to die in the next 5 seconds", Chris said through the stone.
The captain screamed in terror. He grabbed the nearest guard's pistol and shot himself with it.
"I never lie", chuckled Chris, who finally reached his ship, the Black Demon.
Imprisonment
August 22, 1755. Chris was sailing to the island of Ikiw Enilno Setirip, which was in the middle of a war. Both Navy and pirates were on the island fighting for territory. Chris stepped foot on the island, and was encountered by both Navy and Pirates. Chris cut them down, and casually walked to the library to read. After walking out, he noticed the island's government was having issues. One of the representatives, Kycin Nealin, was badmouthing several other islands and tempting people to destroy the high-position inhabitants, secretly planning to take them for herself. Chris, however, confronted everyone about it, and managed to find evidence that proved this representative wrong. However, Nealin tried to destroy the evidence, though, but Chris managed to bring it back. Nealin, who had obviously gone mad with power, and had Chris arrested, then proceeded to lie to the inhabitants by saying he had been causing drama and other problems. The government, along with others, believed this, unfortunately.
August 23, 1755. Chris was in his cell, with a sharp rock he had smuggled in. Every time nobody was watching, Chris secretly carved into the walls, and several friends of Chris had arrived. They made a petition requesting the release of Chris, but again, Nealin drove fear into multiple officials and other inhabitants to insure that Chris was not released from jail. Nealin was pleased with this, and continued to spread political corruption, knowing Chris could do nothing about it now that he was in jail.
10:37 PM, August 29, 1755. Chris finally loosened the wall. He waited for the guards to leave, and immediately pushed the blocks in the wall, and it completely fell apart. Chris ran out of his cell and went back through the front door to claim his items. He then stealthily went to the government fort. He entered the fort, and killed the 2 guards that tried to stop him. He entered Nealin's office, only to realize that she wasn't there. He searched her desk for something that could help him, and found a to-do list. He searched for the most recent entry, and realized Nealin was going to her backyard to burn the evidence, hoping nobody could find the remains and figure out that she was corrupt. He quickly ran out of the fort and searched for her house, finding the sign that marked her home. He ran into the forest behind the house, and found Nealin.
Chris saw Nealin holding oil in her hand, attempting to light a fire, with the evidence laying on some firewood. Chris approached her, and she lit several nearby fireworks, which she set up to call for help should someone attempt to kill her. She asked Chris how he got out of jail, but he refused to answer. Chris shot at Nealin, who narrowly dodged the shot. Nealin pulled out a sword, and Chris pulled out his own. The two of them dueled for 10 minutes, and both officials and townspeople arrived. Chris clubbed Nealin with his sword, and oil from the container she held spilled all over her. Soldiers drew their muskets, and loaded cursed shots into them. Chris seized Nealin, and held her in their way. The government's leader, Trahkrad Noidisbo, ordered Chris to let Nealin go, but Chris told them that she was corrupt. Noidisbo asked how Chris would know this, and the latter picked up the evidence that Nealin dropped earlier. He threw it to Noidisbo, who read the evidence that revealed that Nealin had been causing the problems. Chris pressed a knife to Nealin's neck, her a painful death, then ordered her to explain her plan. Nealin unwillingly explained what she had been planning, and Noidisbo angrily ordered the soldiers lower their weapons. Chris let go of Nealin, while soldiers walked to her to arrest her. Immediately, Nealin cut their throats with a knife, and grabbed her cursed sword. She ran at Chris, screaming maniacally, and soldiers quickly opened fire on her. Nealin, despite being shot multiple times, continued running, but Chris caught her by the shoulder, and impaled her through the chest. Nealin was still not dead, and Chris cut her throat. Nealin fell to the ground, gasping for air, and Chris told her he had promised her a painful death. One minute later, Nealin finally suffocated. Chris spat on her corpse several times, then drove his Sword into the body again. He used Cursed fire, burning Nealin's oil-soaked corpse. Not too long after, Chris helped the government regain control of the island, then sailed away for another adventure.
