PERSONALITY
Samatha has always been proud of who she is, disregarding those that sneer at her family and talk behind their backs. She has always loved being different, and nothing will ever change that thought. She has a high level of confidence; convinced that she can achieve what she wants in life as long as she works hard enough. Confidence gives her the power to go forward. And that she does. She has had never had a boyfriend because she's a pirate, but she has a friendly personality. However, she has only had her eyes set on no man now, and she isn't that type of girl who would flirt and be Charming.
Being as outgoing as it is, there is no surprise that Samantha has only a few friends before she ran away from home. Her only true friends is those that on her uncle's ship The Velvet Rose. She has a few friends around at different ports and is generally an easy girl to get along with. As long as you respect her and the ship she's on. She will not have a problem with you. Only occasionally will she not like someone; and that could be from a range of different reasons. She is fiercely loyal, and puts up with no patronizing or bullying from other people. She never has tolerated bullies, and never will; she sees it as people who are scared. Although she can be a bully as well on her bad days.
She has no patience whatsoever and can rarely stand to wait for something for more than a few minutes. Along with her little patience, she has her big temper; she may not have the trademark pirate smile, but she most certainly has the temper aspect. Anger is a daily occurrence for Samantha whether it be from a single strand of hair out of place or to a full scale argument you can guess that she'll be angry about it. Around those particular days of the month it isn't wise to mess her around. Other than that Samantha is very kind and adventitious. She always looks for the best in people and treats them with respect. Samantha has a caring and sensitive side towards mostly anyone, who needs it Samantha is also very independent meaning she loves to do things and pays her own way. She also loves to be alone to do things that she only does on the ship; dancing and up in the crow's nest.
On the other hand her friends mostly summarizes her to be clever, very short tempered, and defensive of herself. Samantha is clever and smart in her life and yet in school. Being very short tempered an defensive can come all at once for herself or at someone. After this happens she can become very regretful and with-dawn without talking to no one. Samantha agrees with her family/friends of having opinions, but it can sometimes be negative. Samantha overall isn't a self-centered, lustful, pride, or a care free person. She tends to break the rules when she needs or has to be done.
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE;
Sammy to begin with has a fair tone of a richly tan skin which is of course due to the sunlight. She has wide set eyes with a color of a light blue. Taking off of the facial, her body shape is slim and almost a thin figure which she can slip in and out of dresses easily. She stands about 5 feet and 6 inches and weight less then 120 pounds. Turning back to her face her, matching light blue eyes are framed by the long dirty blonde locks of hair which she carries in soft layers down down her back and her thin pink colored lips are set just below her thin nose.
On her body, she has a few short amount of scars and blemishes. There's a thin scar which can be identified along her right leg extending from her thigh to her leg, this resulted of a fall with a ordinary kitchen knife when she was the mere age of nine on board her Uncle's ship. She then also has a burn scar on the back of her left arm from playing with candle fire as a young child. Although last year during the summer season she fell off a dock in Tortuga bruising her right side badly.
For fashion as a maid, Samantha wears a simple light blue dress of that of any maid in a high scale household. A white arpon is tied around her middle with a maid's hat that she greatly destests wearing, but she has no choice or to blow her cover. She does wear black shoes on her feet that allows her to move freely then others. Although unlike most maid's she does carry a weapon that of a dagger to protect herself in a hidden pocket under her apron.
Now for fashion as a pirate, she wears black boots over her brown breeches. Her white spanish style shirt is tucked into her pants and under her black corest like vest. She does wear a belt that her father had made for her before her staying with her uncle. This belt houses her sword on the left as she is a right handed fighter. Unlike her maid attire her hair hangs loose and wavy down her back with no hat to cover it. She is different then what other female pirates wear.

BACKGROUND;
Everyone has a story to tell those of happiness and love which will forever be written in storybooks for young children to read, but some people where born into a world filled with despair and bittersweet to the point that they never want to tell their tale and that was the world that Samantha Jane Grey was born into. Her story began on May 30th in the year 1718 on a hot summers night in Charles Town in the Colony of South Carolina. Her birth was unexpected since both of her parents were hiding undercover from the Royal Guards that was stationed there. Her father Nicholas and her mother Amanda were pirates that were highly wanted for piracy in and around both Charles Town and Town of Savannah in the neighboring Colony of Georgia. Her Aunt Mary took them into her lavish bayside house in the historic destrict called the Battery while her Aunt took care of newborn Samantha, her parents went undercover as a maid and a merchant sailor in order to get by. Sadly, not to long after this life itself for Samantha and the rest of her family changed. Her father was turned over by an anymous merchant after reckonizing him. The guards arrested him on the spot and her mother was also arrested after stealing an expensive shell necklace lined with black pearls on Market Street. Somehow the necklace found it's way to Mary, who knew that it was for Samantha, but after hearing of her sister's and brother in-law's capture. She feared for her niece's young life knowning that the Guards would be coming here. She quickly spread the word by letter to Daniel Grey, who was restocking his 'merchant' ship in town.
On a rainy stormy night Daniel came to the home to take his brother's daughter away with him since pirate blood ran through their family and hers as well. Mary had very trace of Samantha's things taken aboard the ship and after she bide her niece a final farewell. She was arrested on housing pirates only to come out she was a pirate as well. The Guards searched the house finding nothing of a baby ever being there since they knew that people had seen a baby through windows prior to the arrest, by the time that the Gaurds forced out an answer about the whereabouts of the baby and got down to the docks. Samantha was long gone by then to begin her life as a pirate. As time passed Samantha grew up under the care of her Uncle, who was a pirate himself as well as a Captain, but unlike most pirates he sailed under the radar for safety of hi, his crew, and most all his niece. As she grew she was taught in English, Reading, and Writing, although in later years she would teach herself in History, Spanish, and French. She also took it upon herself in reading and studying about the code of the pirates. Daniel knew that she inherented her intelligence from her father and her southern American speech and beauty from her mother. In her childhood, Samantha was a typical child that loved to have fun and to ask many questions that would drive her Uncle crazy at certain points, although when she met new people she was shy and quiet, but always watching everyone with curiosity. She eventually grew out of it and became a more confident and friendly person that wasn't afraid to start a conversation with a stranger.
Although upon entering her teenage years, her Uncle sat her down to answer those questions about who she was and her parents. He told her that their family were that of pirates and that her parents were wanted by two colonies. The result of them going undercover was their deaths and her Aunt's as well, but he did tell her that he knew that they were proud of her for being, who she was today, a kind, loyal, intelligent, and caring young lady that was hard to come by in piracy and in other countries. He knew that would come in handy one day if piracy ever had to go undercover. It took Samantha a while to get over the deaths of her family and vowed to get back at those that killed them. One day, she made up her made to be trained as a pirate and such she asked her uncle to do so. He did and under his teachings and the crew's she became quite a student always making sure that she got everything right he frist time around and if not, she would practice until she got it right. She was a very determined student. Although, being in her teenage years had it's up and downs by arguing with her uncle or the crew or being a rebel. It was how most teenage pirates were then.
Along with her training, she found working on a ship quite enjoyable going to parts of the ship where she never been too and having fun with music and dancing one night each week. She completed her training at age seventeen and was given her own sword which had previously belonged to her father. Samantha was now a full fledged pirate and by the age of eighteen she witness the battle for freedom against Beckett's Armada where she was Quartermaster on her Uncle's ship. She made sure that every order was obeyed and carried out despite the harsh winds and seas that Claypso had made. Against all odds the pirates won the war and celebrated, but sadly word reached her ears that Beckett was had survived the bloody battle. Over the next few years things quieted down until one day The Velvet Rose was caught in a cross fire against Beckett's flagship near the island of Aruba. Her Uncle was injured and later he died on the island after he gave her words of encouragement along with the necklace her mother had got for her. Samantha never was the same again. With the new threat being made Samantha now as elected Captain, journied to Shipwreck Cove and where she joined the league of spies that were needed for the Brethern Court. She was chosen to go to Port Royal now that Beckett was back and plaguing the sea. Samantha dressed up as a maid for the event and went to Renaldi family, who had connections in the EITCo. She was hired after her false background of her alias Elizabeth James was studied and she knew to never blow her cover. Overtime she found valued information that she passed onto valued spies of the Court to deliever what she found. She has heard that the Fountain of Youth is now being targeted and she knows that is where Jack Sparrow will be heading for. Somehow she knows that with the new threat with Beckett back things will never be the same. She hopes that the Court will be called or piracy will cease to exist. Only time will tell what will happen.

ROLE PLAY EXAMPLE;
The day had been a long one. From the Island's ships unload supplies from other ports to helping clean up Freedom Hall for the Brethern, if they happen to flee Shipwreck Cove along with many more pirates. This island was in the middle of the mysterious and legendary Bermuda Triangle and only those that knew where it was could find it. That was the advantage that island had against the English Navy and the East India Company. If those two monsters ever found this island they would want to turn around that flee. Pictures of that formed into the intelligent and smart mind of the Island's owner, Anastasia Williams. She was getting ready to go and help her crew run The Patch Eyed Parrot and she knew that she was late. After getting dressed in black pants, black boots, and stylish top. She left her house on the east side of the island. She walked up the long pathway to the cobblestone street. The night life was beginning for the island...well the whole island. She knew the town was divided for nightly entertainment Eagle's Point where her bar ranked in alot of people and tourists since it was the famous bar in the Seven Seas. Some people didn't believe it existed and some people didn't want to travel through the Bermunda Triangle to get to it. People and their supersitions. She believed in some like Davy Jones and what not, but she didn't believe that Woman were Bad Luck for a ship. That was something that she didn't believe. Therewas a handful of female pirates around now, like herself, Elizabeth Swann, and Angelica Teach.
It was a small world and the pirate world was now growing smaller and now many pirate ports was evacutated living the town a simple ghost town. It was sad, but with the new threat everyone had to either seek heaven elsewhere or be killed. She already heard that the Atlantic and Caribbean was on top of that then the other seas. Some Pirate Lords cared about thier follow pirates and others didn't. Seeing a wagon that served as a taxi, she climbed on board to ride over to the bar. She didn't have to pay anything, but she did because she wasn't the greedy type of pirate and yet she wanted to help the people that lived on this island. Liberty's Island was a cleaner and better pirate port since she became the owner. Her former captain, Captain Richard left the island, the town, and his second ship to her in his Will after his and the crews hanging. She still remembered that they. Escaping in time from the Company's hands and watching The Scarlett Rose's death and it's crew. She vowed to get revenge on them and she should of went into the war, but her ship hadn't been fixed after goof ball crew member sailed it right over a reef of the island and damaged the hull below. Just recently her hull was fixed to where no water could get in. She still never forgive him for doing that.
As the wagon rolled out of the Scarlett Rose Heaven her eyes looked and the memorial at the center of town. It was a memorial for The Scarlett Rose and the lives lost. Her flag was flying on a pole behind. It was one thing that Anastasia had saved. Sighing a bit she began talking to a few people one was a visiting pirate and the other two were people who lived here. They were talking until her eyes caught a ship. Not just any ship it was her ship's twin sister The Black Pearl. Her ship was docked nearby and in the dark they looked the same, but The Black Swan's gangplank wasn't down so you could tell. "Well what do you know, looks like The Swan's twin is in port." one person said grinning. "You know she's the fastest ship in the Caribbean." the other commented. The Black Pearl was infamous and she could see crew members onboard. They were welcome to come into town, but their captain probably told them not to. "Does this mean that they Court is coming, Anastasia?" the driver asked her. She blinked out of her thoughts, "I don't know Samuel, but I will find out hopefully and let you know." she replied patting him on the arm as the wagon continued on to the Patch Eyed Parrot.
It took them another ten minutes to arrive outside her bar and her friend Jessica was there waiting for her. Anastasia climbed off the wagon with a little help. "Where in the world have you been?" Jessica had ordered at her. Did she had to do that? "Jessica, I was busy all day. You know how I am running a island and getting everything stocked up just incase Shipwreck Cove flees over here." she replied to her friend as they followed the crowd inside. Just an hour after dusk everything was wired up for the night. The band was playing, dancers on the floor dancing, and people having a good time. She already informed her crew that some Pirate Lords' people would be arriving and let them have everything at a discount and Pirate Lords have everything for free. She stood there her brown eyes scanning the room watching people having fun before she made her way to the bar to help out.
"Finally, the lady of the hour has arrived. Where have you been Spain?" the very fimilar voice asked as she came into the bar area. It was that fool that reef wrecked her ship months back. She laughed, "No, I have been busy with the situation of the island. You know how I am." she replied coming in behind the bar area. "Work. Work. Work. Eversince this threat came upon us. You've been going none stop." he said again as Anastasia looked him,"Yes, but I wasn't the one that didn't wreck The Swan." She said being smart she she started filling drink orders. She didn't hear whatever reply came next. She saw a man that had just come into the place and grabbed a lady rudely. "Who's that man, Jessica?" she asked her friend next to her. "That's Jack Sparrow, the captain of your ship's twin sister The Black Pearl." she whispered back to Anastasia, who raised a eyebrow as she kept making drinking and being the cashier as well. She had seen The Black Pearl on her way here.
Anastasia kept on helping crew watching her friend go up and sing with help to a catchy tune called 'If'. She was singing along having fun behind the bar. She wanted to go and join her since she could defiently dance to this song, but infront of a Pirate Lord? She was having second thoughts. She watched two of her crew members dancing and making drinks at the same time. Anastasia was laughing, "Looks like thier having fun?" Andie asked coming up the bar, "You should see them on The Black Swan." she replied before filling his drink again and left him leave. When the song ended she clapped and laughed seeing those two nut heads hugging Jessica when she came back, "Okay, knock it off you two." she said before she went back to buisness.
