Biography

Drake began playing in mid 2005 and had a short time on Cobalt as a lonely scallywag. Shortly thereafter he moved to the doubloon ocean of Viridian. Both times he played under different aliases.

Once Hunter Ocean opened, Drake knew he had his opportunity to become king and captain. Drake enjoyed a variety of successes but also has had his fair share of tribulations.

The Merging of Hunters Pride

June 19th, 2006

Drake sadly was forced to abscond from the game due to real life circumstances. He merged his crew with Kings of Chaos, and stepped down from royalty.

Return of the King

July 27th, 2006

After 5 weeks at sea, Drake's real life business had ended, and a decision to return to his home ocean was taken. Drake returned to his friends, and regained the rank of king after heavy persuasion from Exnoga.

The Clueless Captain

August 24th, 2006'

Drake decided to leave Kings of Chaos for pastures new, and joined the crew Clueless, as they sought his experience and expertise. Many of his loyal friends and fellow officers joined him.

End of an Era, Start of a Legacy

August 8th, 2006

After several conflicts within his flag, Drake decided to let Armada de Invincible go to Davy Jones. His crew Clueless decided to work as a flagless crew, to build up experience and stats.

Prince of Tides

November 13th, 2006

A day which was unlucky for some, but not for Clueless. A premature return for Drake saw him change focus and direction for his crew. A need to grow, expand and bring in active officers, Drake sought counsel from closest friends. A decision was made and they joined long term and loyal friend Darksoul in his flag Castigo Final. Drake's role would be in an internal and external political face. He helped to push forward the flag's ambitions of blockades and glory.

The Resurrection

April 21st, 2007

After some considerable time away, Drake and Reade returned to Hunter Ocean. Real Life issues had been sorted out and friends were missed. With a couple of friends, Cherryangel and Chimira they created a new crew purely for the purposes of pillaging and friendship. The past is the past and previous conflicts were laid to rest, at least on Drake's part.
Drake at this point, has no desires to return to the political game.
