 Bio: Bootstrap is the newest member to join the ranks of the dreaded Crimson Bloods, this man once served nobly and honourable among the UCAS Navy and had a long and prestigious career that brought him all the way to the rank of Vice Admiral. Though for Bootstrap he was watching as the Navy he served and loved so much was being stripped away before him and what was becoming of the precious Navy was nothing more then a shell of itself and under the command of the False Flag, he was watching as the military was being used to capture and enslave common citizens. He was watching as the pirates where freely plundering the seas and the Navy was powerless to stop them as they where ordered to sit on their laurels and do nothing to stop them from killing his fellow sailors.

         Bootstrap served in Seattle and was stationed at Fort Lewis and was in command of one of the greatest fleets in the world, he was proud of his naval heritage and long linage of offices that all served before him. Though for Bootstrap, he could feel that the tides where turning and he only wishes he was wrong, but since he defected to the pirates obviously this once honourable officer had a change of heart. Bootstrap was one of the commanding Admirals during the Battle of Seattle and he like a few others warned the UCAS of the severity of the situation in the waters of Seattle. He knew that engaging those fleets would be suicide for many of his sailors and he wanted to just offer surrender and hope they would allow the ships to safely exit the harbour without firing a shot. For this Bootstrap was ridiculed and relieved of duty by General James O’Brian and others of the False Flag, Bootstrap just left the base and went to his private home in the Imperial Towers.

          From his vantage point he was able to sit comfortably in his home and watch as the Navy was entirely eradicated and the Naval Yard would fall into the hands of the pirates as they unleashed hell fire into Fort lewis and the surrounding districts. As much as he was saddened by the events that unfolded that day, he was also filled with frustration and anger over how the government was failing and how it had to resort to this war, the city breaking out into a civil war fighting for freedom against the tyranny of the nation he once served proudly.

        Bootstrap use this as an excuse to throw his hat in the war, if the UCAS didn’t want his assistance then  he would help those that where fighting for freedom an he would gladly strike a blow for lady liberty. No one is sure how Bootstrap reached out to the pirates, but what we do know is he not only reached out to them and they gladly accepted his call. He used his secure codes to download the entirety of the UCAS’s naval registry and tactical logs directly onto his personal laptop before meeting up with the pirates of the Crimson Bloods for his rescue.

         Well as current events will tell us this evacuation didn’t go as planned and the government was waiting for Bootstrap to apprehend him and the pirates. Well we know that Bootstrap was successfully evacuated and has been brought into to the pirate’s family, so what fate is in store for the UCAS Navy now that they have Bootstrap and his valuable information is unknown. Bootstrap is a brilliant naval officer who hails from a long line of admirals and captains, he graduated top of his class and holds multiple advanced degrees including a marine biology degree so he will be a great asset to the pirates and they will fight like hell to protect their newest family member.
