GenderFemale
Age16
Pysical DescriptionLong, Light brown hair and blue eyes. small build with a small chest. 5'3" simple, but pretty features. can pass for a boy from afar or the back.
Personality Description Holds a grudge. generous, intelligent but not clever, shy, gullible, naive (very easy to take advantage of), kind. Longs for adventure.
HistoryGrew up in Port Cayman with her parents as the daughter of a noble. She was trapped by her station, hated her life, and thought it was dreadfully boring. After her sixteenth birthday and her engagement to man she despised, she decided to run away, but not before the man had spoiled her. She stole some of her father's old clothes (which are huge on her), put her hair up, and posed as a boy named Eddie. She went to port, and signed up for the crew of a merchant ship. The ship went out to sea, and was captured by a pirate ship. She convinced the pirates to let her join their crew, and got lessons in sword fighting from one of them. During this time, she discovered that she was with child. She got pretty good, and after a few months, left in Tortuga. That's where she is when she meets up with Jack, Will, and Elizabeth and joins the crew.

This takes place before the game would start.
Emilia Grace sighed as she sat in the parlor, staring off into the fire dreamily. She'd just turned fifeteen, and day by day, throughout her whole life, she'd started to despise it more and more. She'd also begun to despise her self for sitting there day in and day out, pretending to be a doll, just like everybody expected her. She'd recently begun being courted by Jonathan Stevens, who was almost three times her age. Jonathan was the commodore of Port Cayman's navy, as well as a cruel man. She hated him almost as much as herself, but all that mattered to her parents was that they raised their standings by marrying her off to someone high up. Jonathan was to come pick her up for dinner with his family in twenty minutes, and Emilia was getting help from her maid, Sarah, to pick out a dress. Sarah reached into her closet and pulled out what was possibly the most beautiful dress she owned. It was floor length and a lovely golden color. It had short, puffy sleeves, and some silver lace hanging from the slanted neckline.
"Here Emilia, try this one," Sarah handed her the dress.
Emilia took the dress, "Please Sarah, I've asked you to call me Emmy."
Emmy put on the dress, and jumped when there was a knock on her door.
"A Mr. Jonathan Stevens here to see you Miss Grace," the butler said through the door.
"I'll be down in a minute," Emmy shouted.
Emmy looked once more at Sarah, who gave her a pitied look, and went down to the foyer.
"Ah, Emilia," Jonathan greeted her.
He kissed her hand, and led her into his carriage.
Later
Emmy sat in her room, tears running down her face. After dinner that evening, and after spoiling Emmy for other men, Jonathan had asked her father for his permission to marry her. Her father of course, had said yes. Emmy had already decided that there was no way she'd marry Jonathan, and now knew she had only two options. Either she'd kill herself, or she'd run away. Emmy went with the latter. Later that night, she snuck into her father's room, and took his dirtiest oldest clothes, and put them on. She ran back into her room, and put her hair up into a ponytail. She searched her room until she found a hat she'd bought before. It was a tricorn hat. She put it on. Emmy went downstairs, and opened the family safe. She removed a substantial amount of money, and left the house, heading towards port.
