Captain Orisk “Black Beard” Thatch
Captain Orisk Thatch (a.k.a. Blackbeard)
The captain of the Yellow Puffer-Fish lay defeated, his arms bound and body beaten. He knew his crew hadn't stood a chance against Orisk's men, but he didn't expect the brutality the loss brought. Corpses littered the deck around him, blood and organs splattered across the deck. Amidst the horrified expressions of his former crew's corpses, the Orisk's crew pilfering through each body. The captain grimaced, why hadn't they killed him yet? The sound of heavy boots interrupted his thoughts. The captain strained his neck to see who was approaching. The figure appeared before him, a titan of an orc, gray hairs protruding wildly all across his head and chin. He wore ragged captain's uniform around his massive body. It was caked in stains from blood, ale, and a substance the captain couldn't identify. A massive grin twisted across Orisk's face as he looked over his bounty, his teeth were yellow and rotten.
"This one'll do." the Orc's voice boomed. The instant he finished speaking, a group of orcs snatched him up, dragging away.
"To this pit boss?" One of Orisk's crew asked, barely containing his excitement. Orisk's chuckled, striking a cigar against the Yellow Puffer-Fish's mast, "Aye, gotta let ye lads have some fun. Save a piece o' 'em for me boys." The captain struggled against the orcs dragging him away to no avail. He scream out a jumbled mess of begging and apologies, desperate to not be taken to the pits. Orisk raised an eyebrow, he held up a fist, the orcs immediately stopped. Relief washed over the captain's face, tears streaming down his bloodied face. Orisk put a reassuring hand on the man's soldier.
"Ya know, me pap alw'ys said one thing 'bout mercy fer prisoners..." Orisk smiled, the captain looked up at him graciously. "He alw'ys said 'prisoners don't need mercy, and don't need a tongue.'" Orisk bellowed, the captain's face transformed into sheer terror. Orisk snatched his knife from his side, bringing it slowly to the captain's mouth. "I'd be a bad son if I didn' follow me pa's advice."
