Barney

Barney is a pirate on Hunter Ocean. He is a senior officer in the crew The Eternal Hydrae, and is a member of the flag EAC.

Biography
Barney's pirate life began on November 5, 2007. After briefly joining the crew Sexaliciousness, he found a home with The War Falcons in mid-November. It was with The War Falcons that he really learned the ropes of piracy, achieving Legendary standing on bilge, sails, and dnav, and even reaching Ultimate in carpentry. His hard work did not go unnoticed as he progressed through the ranks until he reached Senior Officer in April, 2008.

Barney remained there until October 1, 2008, when he finally made a long anticipated move to The Eternal Hydrae in order to spend more time with his in-game and real life wife, Catkinn. Alyhs, Eternal Hydrae's captain, had been avidly (and good-naturedly) recruiting Barney for quite some time, and he was happily welcomed with the rank of Fleet Officer; the following month, he regained the rank of Senior Officer.

Having recently finished memorizing the ocean, Barney can most often be found battling skellies or zombies, or jobbing on the latest Cursed Isles run. Barney also enjoys helping Catkinn furnish their villa on Aimuari Island.
