Freebooter Fast

Freebooter Fast is one of the original pummelboys, bonded in body and spirit with the Aquamarine Guardian.

## **Early Life**

The man who would become Freebooter Fast was born and raised in Almaty, Kazakhstan, a hidden city largely unknown to the masses of the world, and for the better as some would argue. Given the name Naz, he lived in a very modest household but he was exposed to riches of this world from an early age by his relatives, who would often mock his family. This would later return to haunt the man, and drive him towards acquiring ever more wealth.

After finishing the academy of fine culinary and becoming a certified shef, Naz enlisted into the Kazakh Caspian Navy (KCN) as an onboard cook. There, he mastered his art of cooking the most angelic borscht to ever exist, lifting the spirits of the marines. For his service, Naz was climbing up the ranks in the KCN, eventually earning the title of Admiral.

*“Your Admiral is here!”*

## **Aquamarine Guardian**

On a routine mission, the Admiral overheard a discussion from several of his crewmen. Among the crew of his vessel, rumors had begun to spread of a treasure, a treasure so great it could change the future of humanity. Rumors of not mere oil, of which there was an abundance at the Caspian sea, but of ancient riches, value of which was impossible to imagine. The rumors reached the Admiral, gnawing at his psyche, tormenting his mind, stripping him away from peace. All these years, the Admiral only wanted one thing: riches, the power to buy fate itself.

Ignoring all the protocol set in by the Supreme Command, the Admiral and his crew went on a search for this treasure. Their searches have led them to a pocket of water in the eastern part of the sea, considered useless due to the lack of oil and natural gas in the area. However, along their journey the weather was brewing a storm, causing unrest among the crew, debates of returning. The Admiral, however, pressed on, blinded by greed he challenged the sea itself, peering into the eye of the storm the Admiral was not terrified by the magnitude of the threat, instead, strangely, he felt peace…

Then, suddenly the raging hurricane went silent. A bright beam of blue light exploded from below, grabbing the ship and dragging it beneath the waves, drowning everyone aboard. In the depth of the water, in the depth of his mind, he saw it. A light blue flicker and a voice.

*“Are you… my next master?”*

The Admiral remained silent, unsure of the events that have transpired, he uttered the words: “who are you?”

“*Do you have what it takes to change the course, Admiral?”*

*“I-I don’t understand, who are you?”*

*“Tell me, Admiral, do you want to break the chains of fate?”*

*“I want to live!”*

*“THEN YOU WILL! ACCEPT ME AND WE WILL SAIL THE SKIES!”*

After the incident, the KCN dispatched a rescue crew, managing to save the only remaining person in that mess, the Admiral. After returning to the base, those in high command, those who knew the Admiral noticed something different. He was somehow more confident, radiating power around him, electrolyzing the air around him. Somehow, his aura changed, his ambition multiplied. Even with a title of an admiral, the Caspian sea was too limiting, in fact, any sea or ocean was too limiting, the Admiral aimed for the skies. After telling about his plans of sailing the seas to his comrades in the high command, he left them perplexed. If he wanted to transfer to the air forces, why leave the military entirely? The Admiral was adamant on his decision, he will sail the skies.

A month passed, all seemed quiet at the KCN base. From over the horizon he came, the madman on the ship. A large antique looking ship came flying from the horizon, bearing a strange aquamarine aura around it, bringing the storm with it. The tides themselves became violent after the arrival.

“YOUR ADMIRAL IS HERE!”

The voice boomed across the land, summoning lightning in the clouds. The ship in the sky was full of spirits of the Admiral’s former crew, bound with allegiance to the Admiral. The ship also had letters burning on its side. The captain and his ship are one and the same, and so the Admiral would forever be known as Freebooter Fast.

## **Fighting Style**

The speed of Freebooter Fast is unmatched by any, he swoops into battle devastating the space fabric itself, the aerial rush was truly a technique to be afraid of. As Freebooter Fast is always bonded with the Aquamarine Guardian, bond stronger than any of the other pummelboys with their guardians, his stats are noticeably more impressive.
