Sanctuary: Member
Hector’s mother was caught by Barbary Pirates, and taken to the shores of Spain. He learned English from his mother, Spanish from his father, who gave him his name.
When he was barely a lad his father dumped him on a ship, to train him to be a pirate. Never to see his family again.
He learned how to pirate, steal, pillage and all things Rogue by the time he was sixteen. He moved from ship to ship, killing and taking what he wanted to move up the ranks. Until he ended up First Mate on The Black Pearl with Captain Jack Sparrow.
He convinced the crew to mutiny and found himself cursed by the Aztec gold of the Isle of Murieta. For ten years he searched for the last coin, that William Turner Sr. had sent home, only to discover that Will Turner Jr and been Turned into a Vampire and not able to lift the curse.
Having lost the Pearl back to Sparrow, he set out to find other ways to break the curse. Including invoking the Pirate Council and freeing Calypso.
That didn’t help much either.
Barbossa stayed in around the Caribbean seas, tangling with Royal Navy Ships including the HMS Surprise at one point.
He was never labeled a Rogue as he was technically not part of the Vampire community.
It wasn’t until he learned about Brent Turner that he finally found a way to free his crew from the curse.
Only to get shot by Cutler and Turned.
