'''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]].

== Goals ==
* Get [[standing]] in all duty [[puzzles]] to at least Renowned.
* Establish and maintain a reputation as both a loyal and dependable crew mate/officer and as a hard-working and desirable [[jobber]].
* Retain a permanent spot on the [[Ultimate list]] for [[Carpentry]].
* Get more bnav experience (specifically pillages and Cursed Isles).

== Noteworthy Achievements ==
* Achieved his first navigation victory versus a [[Brigand King]] in his very first attempt by besting [[Admiral Finius]] while solo memorizing on his sloop, ''Adventurous Herring'', between [[Paihia]] and [[Maia]] on May 1, 2008.
* Won his first skull trinket after a 17-round fray on [[Alkaid Island]] that lasted roughly 2½ hours and spanned September 6-7, 2008
* Finished collecting the entire Atlantis trinket collection on October 19, 2009
* Finished memorizing Hunter Ocean on October 22, 2009
* Top Carpentry rank achieved: 23rd
* Top Foraging rank achieved: 6th
* Best consecutive Masterpiece string in carp: 23 (MP^15 + MP^8)
