My contest entry for the Life on the High Seas contest.
George is a pirate who was once part of a rich family, but found that life too boring so he joined a pirate crew and thus became George, The Posh Pirate! He then deserted and bought his own ship with his share of what he had plundered, and started recruiting his own crew. He then roamed the seven seas in search of loot and more crew. Now as he roams the seas today, he tries not to destroy other ships but overrun them, as he wishes to become captain of a fleet.
