Alejandro's Journal #001- My Story

My birth name of Alejandro Zabra. All my friends call me Alee though. (pronounced Ah-lee) I was born on May 4th and am currently 15 years old. I was born in my beloved hometown, the Bison Village of the Big Sky Skyway in Cool Ranch. My Grandparents were natives of Flotsam in Skull Island. They met each other when they were 11. Eager to escape the awful place that is Flotsam (I've heard terrible things from a a second cousin of mine who lives there!) they stole a small skiff and a Windstone, and made a break for the nearest Stormgate, and off to the fine world of Cool Ranch they went! They loved each other very much even at such a young age. They traveled around Cool Ranch, and saw every little area of it, from the smallest cave, to the grand town of Coopers Roost. Around the age of 17, they settled down together in the Bison Village of Big Sky.   At the age of 18, my Grandmother gave birth to my Father, and she sadly passed away not even a day later. My Grandfather raised my Father all by himself. Around the age of 16, my Father set out in pursuit of a wife. He traveled around many, many worlds, before eventually meeting my Mother, who at the time was a poor maid in a small hotel in Darkmoor. The two of them sailed around the Spiral. They sailed around the Spiral plundering ships with their crew For a little while, they went back to Cool Ranch for a bit over a year. During this time, I was born. As soon as I was born, my parents left me in the care of the Bison. They then set out once again for more pirating, They apparently visited me once every 3 months or so. At the age of 3, my parents and their crew had a bit of a fight. It was a mutiny. Among the people who passed away that day were my parents. Anyways, the Bison's kept raising me, and I was a curious child. One day, I ran away around the age of 9. I have been going around Cool Ranch since, exploring. About three months ago, I heard of a fine master of fencing, who was giving lessons to aspiring students in Valencia. Through hopping on quite a few different trade ships, I made my way to Valencia. I looked high and low for this teacher, and eventually found him. He taught me basic fencing and dueling, and was a fine teacher. Then one day, an Armada officer came by his Villa to inspect it. I had never met an Armada officer, however this form of artificial life disgusted me. I attacked him with the skills I had been taught over the past few months. I was arrested, and made captive of the Armada. For about a week I'd have to imagine, the prison ship I was on made its way around the Spiral, picking up more and more prisoners. Then, a rather rough looking pirate and his monkey friend finally came to rescue all of us! He helped us fight our way out. I found where the Armada had hidden my only two belongings, my knives and my camera. I grabbed them in a hurry, and with the help of that nice pirate, Boochebeard I think he said his name was, I escaped. I am writing this from the office of Pirate Lord of Skull Island, Captain Avery. I am waiting in line, as he is giving out tasks for young aspiring pirates. I don't see much hope for returning to Cool Ranch, and even if there was, I think its about time I do what would make my parents proud, and go plunder the high-skies. I will be writing about all my adventures I have in this notebook, and I hope you enjoy reading about them!

Alejandro's Journal #000

Today, I started a Swashbuckler character by the name of Alejandro Zabra. I'm going to try to make daily posts on here about my journey through the Spiral on this character, written from a first person perspective from Alejandro Zabra. I will be telling a backstory I have written for my new character through these "journal" entries, as well as new stories Alejandro goes through. I hope you enjoy!

My recent blessings from the RNG God's

When  it comes to gaming, my luck has never been very good. I've been playing Pokemon for 8 years and only ever encountered one shiny. (well, two if you count the shiny Gyarados in Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver...) Back in my days of playing Minecraft,  I'd spend hours trying to find rare ore, and never had any luck. However, ever since I started playing Pirate101 last December, I've seen some amazing blessings from the God's of RNG. I've managed to get myself all 4 pieces (hat, robe, boots, wand) of Moo Manchu's gear (non-imperial, sadly), 4 of the 5 pieces of Captain Bloods gear (still after the elusive, legendary Jacket...), 2 Axe of the Minotaur Lords, 2 Nefarious Novablasters, and 2 Nefarious Knives, and the most recent addition to my vast collection of items, Moo Manchu's Staff of Power! 


I hope you all keep on fighting for whatever you may be after in Pirate101, or Wizard101, or any game for that matter!
