Tis funny, but me RL name is wheel in Spanish. Heh, go figure.

You are The Wheel of Fortune

Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of
intoxication with success

The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.

Hmm, was in Atlantic City this past weekend. I can tell ye that the "Wheel of Fortune" was not kind to me at all. heheheh.

Well, the theme for this last weekend was "OMG, it is soooo HOT". Most have already posted about the conditions around the East Coast faires, so I won't belabor the point.

What I thought I would do instead, is put up a short slideshow of my evolution from "Sword for hire" to pirate. For the longest time, my faire persona was just a Rogue, wanderin' about the shire, offerin' me services as a mercenary, but the 'danes' would look at me and say, 'Hey, look at the pirate' and I would have to correct them. My wife was the one to go pirate first, so I finally gave in a said, "alright already, I be a freakin' pirate. Happy now?" Heheheh.

So enjoy the pics and I hope I be not scarin' ye to much. Harrrr.

Macko: First Mate and S.O. of the Diamond's Rule.

I be born the bastard child of a Spanish Noble and a Castletown inn servin' wench, on Ellan Vannin. Me sire was supposedly a Royal, born fairly high in the chain of succession to the throne of Spain. High enough in the chain, fer me birth to be an embarrassment to him and his family. So me mother and I were never acknowledged, but left to our own devices on the Ellan Vannin.

Me mother died while I was still very young, but not before she had told me the story of me conception. Seems it was not all that friendly and loving like. Which would explain why we were left in squalor, while he went back to the Spanish Court. I never did learn me fathers name, for me dear mother died before she could impart that knowledge to me.

Because of the circumstances of me birth, I am conflicted in me emotions about the Spaniards. On one hand, bein' raised on an English Fiefdom, I detest the Spanish, but on the other hand, because of me Spanish blood, I was ostracized by the other children while growing up, so I be not to overly fond of the English either and can understand the Spanish feelings towards them. So much so that I ran off from the work house I was placed in after me mother's death. I being of Royal blood am destined fer greater things than turnin' a grist mill, or haulin' bales fer the rest of me life. I ran off to become a pirate.

I signed on as a hand with a merchant vessel. While serving on this ship, I taught meself to read and write in me free time and got the mercenaries to teach me how to use me fists, a sword and firearms. Several years later, I jumped ship when we finally reached the Spanish Main. I found meself on the island of Tortuga and was visitin' a likely inn, lookin' fer a ship to sign with, when I caught sight of the most beautiful and deadly creature I have ever seen. Twas Captain Lizzie I found. Captain of the Diamond's Rule.

It was love at first sight fer the two of us. I bein' a man of letters and martial trainin', she signed me on as First Mate. We were married not much longer after that. The rest, well, we shall see what the future holds fer the two of us, our crew and the ship, Diamond's Rule.
