Peanutswench
Peanutswench is a pirate who plays mainly on the Hunter, Midnight, and Cobalt oceans. She's the main pirate for the event character Chilibean.
Biography
Peanutswench is most commonly referred to as "Nut". She washed up on the shores of Spring Island in October of 2004. Soon after starting, Peanutswench joined the Crazed Norse Vikings in the flag DeathDrakkar. She achieved the rank of senior officer. Soon after, DeathDrakkar merged with Epic. Peanutswench found a home with Epic and stayed after the two flags went their separate ways. She followed her new crew, the Rudder Duckies, as it merged into Black Sheep Brigade, also known as BSB. Her Midnight home is still with the Rudder Duckies, even though they are now an independent crew.
On April 20th, 2006, she decided to try her hand at a doubloon ocean and moved to Hunter. The "Duckies" and a handful of other close mates created Flocktarts that same day, and Nut became a Senior Officer. They spent their time as high level merchants and an event running crew. Eventually they decided to get into the flag game and created the flag This End Up. Opting out of politics, Nut turned down the position of Royal. She enjoyed her time so much that she decided to make Hunter her official home ocean.
Peanutswench took a short break from her Hunter duties to portray the event character Chilibean on Cobalt. For 3 months she was Fava's primary help in running 12 events and the governorship of Lima Island. The identity of the "Rumbling Bean", and the other event characters remained a secret until their rule of Lima Island ended.
Often Peanutswench is linked with the pirate Polly. The two characters met on the docks of Nu Island in March '05. They have remained closely linked ever since, and now share ownership of their gaggle of familiars and assorted holdings on the oceans they play. Together they've run quite a few events and plan to continue their partnership. They've refused to have a "pirate wedding", but their mates know that's just a formality.
