## Biography

Francisco de Oliveira was born in Hook Inlet, but he moved to Argo Nautica when he was two years old along with his family. He befriended with a girl that lived next to him. The two friends shared a passion for music and spent time making music and singing together. At some point, his best friend came out as transgender and asked to be called Isaak and referred as male. Francisco didn't mind the transition and helped Isaak during the process.

Francisco and Isaak also befriended with other boys that were interested in making music, and together, they formed a band named the Rolling Skulls. They started performing in the street near to the Broken Lute pub and attracted a considerable number of audience. They caught the attention of the owner of the Broken Lute, who then hired them to play in the pub.

When Harriet Hook visited the Broken Lute, Francisco became attracted to her immediately. He briefly flirted with her prior to the concert and had his eyes fixed on her throughout the performance. Afterwards, he offered to buy Harriet a drink, but she turned down his invitation. However, she also stated that she wouldn't mind joining him for a drink some time in the future.

Despite the rejection, Francisco became heavily infatuated with Harriet and wrote several songs about her. The band weren't happy with the songs that he wrote, as they didn't represent the band as a whole. This led to a big fight between them and Francisco left the band. Without the band, Francisco dedicated his time following around Harriet, constantly insisting her to listen to the songs he wrote for her. Harriet got annoyed and told Francisco that she was already in a relationship. He didn't believe her, so he stalked her and saw her spending most of her time with a boy named Murph, who he assumed to be Harriet's boyfriend. Heartbroken, Francisco went to see Isaak. After a long talk, he apologised for abruptly leaving the band and for being a bad leader. Isaak forgave his best friend and told him that the boys have been making bets on how long would it take for him to return to the band. Isaak proceeded to thank his friend because he had helped winning the bet. Later that day, the band welcomed Francisco back and began with their usual rehearsal routine. The band even agreed to let Francisco sing his love songs once in a while, but he declined the offer.

Shortly after, the band signed up for the Brawl of Bands contest and began practising hard. They ended up in third place at least twice. They declared the Bad Apples, the reigning champions of Brawl of Bands, to be their sworn enemies. However, they quickly found out they had a lot in common and became good friends. They even played together in multiple occasions.

After the Rebel Riots were formed, Harriet Hook came to the Broken Lute and asked Francisco to join her for a drink. Francisco invited her a drink and they talked. Harriet asked the Rolling Skulls to be her partners, which he gladly accepted, but he would have to talk to the boys first. They all agreed to establish partnerships with the Rebel Riots. The band befriended with Mic D'Arque, the gunner and musician of the Rebel Riots, even inviting him to perform along with them at the Broken Lute on several occasions.

Francisco and the rest of band established a close friendship with all members of the Rebel Riots. They were invited to attend the crew's first Christmas feast, where they played several songs along with Mic.
