Shampoo (Sage)
Shampoo knew the first time she stepped foot on a sloop that she would never be the same again. The wind in her hair, the bilge water around her ankles, and the splinters flying from her friends at the carpentry station. She soon found a warm and friendly crew who loved to sail the high seas lookin for treasure to plunder. The Captain, Wiking, quickly took her and her Ishy in and taught them all that he could. With hard diligence and hard work Shampoo worked her way up to the ranks of Senior Office in Southern Cross Marauders.
It was at a crew sponsored raffle that Shampoo won her first, and most beloved ship, the Long Eel. As Shampoo stood at the wheel, smelling the fresh paint she realized there was more potential in this boat then she first imagined. It was shortly thereafter that Shampoo, along with several family and friends. And so Shampoo, (Ishmael, Melissande, Dirtyrose and Phillian) started off on their journey with Wild Heart.
When Wild Heart was still a brand new crew it helped to create the flag Blood Oath but after the departure of Wiking, Wild Heart moved to Deadman's Vengance. Finally, Shampoo and her wonderful Senior Officers (Dirtyrose, Phillian, Melissande, Ishmael, Meaganz, Pegasiswolf, and Cozzy) decided to venture off on their and raise their own flag known as Polaris Rising of which Shampoo is Queen.
Since then, many of Wild Heart's officers have gone off to do amazing things and start crews of their own. Pegasiswolf is now captain of Dream Catchers and queen of the flag Fleet of Dreams.
Shampoo is best known for her emphasis on strong bonds between people, which has greatly contributed to her crew's growth. Shampoo strives for equality and fairness in all that she does. This emphasis has the cornerstone for all things Wild Heart or Polaris Rising related.
