History

Makasa was born as the fourth child of Marjani Flintwill, captain of the pirate ship Makemba of the Longstraw Pirates. Her other brothers were Adashe, Akashinga, whom she liked the most, and Amahle with whom she used to fight by tickling until she no longer was ticklish. They had four different fathers but none of them took care, so Marjani acted as mother and father. The four siblings were raised aboard the ship instead of inland. As such, Makasa came to know how to work on ships and fight at an early age. Marjani was especially tough (in a good sense) on her daughter because she saw herself in her youngest and she thought that her only daughter could one day rule the Longstraw Pirates.
  By the time she turned 15, she knew how to fight, raided several ships and took lives. When Adashe became a captain, she joined his crew on the Sea King as a lookout, with the other two brothers joining as well as mates. Joe Barker was chosen as his first mate. After several weeks, the Sea King plundered a merchant ship. When they were enjoying its wine, Adashe's ship which was attacked by two faction-less pirate ships. The semi-drunk crew was easily defeated, with several members killed. The Flintwills, Joe and some others were tied. While the first ship left with its spoils, The second ship's captain came to deal with the prisoners and immediately executed Adashe. Seeing this, the remaining tied brothers charged at the pirate captain. However, the crew bested the two and they were killed. As he noticed Makasa and was about to execute her as well, his attack was parried by Captain Greydon Thorne, the attack still managing to cut Makasa's left arm. The crew of the Wavestrider had silently sneaked on the enemy ship and then on the Sea King, fighting against the faction-less pirates and releasing the captured Longstraw Pirates. Joe and Makasa immediately joined the fight. Her goal was the enemy captain, so she grabbed Adashe's harpoon and threw it at the enemy captain's chest, plunging him into the sea.
  With the enemy pirates defeated, Makasa offered herself to join Greydon's crew as she now owed him a life debt. Seeing how he just lost his second and third mate, and how the two fought, Thorne decided to take Joe as his second and Makasa as his third. Joe, however, aware he just failed his own captain, instead proposed him to take Makasa as the second mate and himself as the third. Captain Greydon agreed. Greydon invited her to tell him about her life and Makasa came to knew the love of a father. Greydon promised her that he would not use the life debt she now owed him. Makasa remained with the crew, traveling aboard the Wavestrider for the next two years.
  Some time later, the crew stopped in Boralus Harbor in order to board Greydon's son, Amare Thorne. The two didn't become friends at that time nor during the next six months. Despite this, she kept a constant watch over him, with various orders and teases.
  Makasa has been waking Aram up and after six months their relationship would change drastically. The Wavestrider had suffered damage from a failed pillage and was to be repaired, an operation that would take months. The relationship between the two youngsters improved as Aram realized that Makasa considered Greydon a father. The two started treating themselves as siblings, and together, they decided to board their own ship; The Dryad.
