Edward Mortemer
Edward Mortemer has a personal vendetta against Admiral Cochrane. According to Edward, the admiral is evil and must be stopped. He says that the admiral believes in legends, specifically of one where the compass will lead him to lost treasure of the first pirate queen which contains a magical artifact that gave her mythical powers.

Your Character
When you are first transported aboard the admiral's ship, you find yourself in the middle of a battle between the navy sailors and the pirates. You watch as Edward takes one of the navy officers hostage, and as Admiral Cochrane shoots him, saying that he does not negotiate with pirates. Rather than stay aboard the navy vessel and find out what he does to stowaways, you join the pirates instead. In Chapter 5, you find a letter where Admiral Cochrane writes he is sending his best man to exterminate them.
