Fuego
Descended from Valhalla through the eye of a hurricane,
Fuego alighted on the sapphire tear of the Caribbean sea. A damsel imprisoned
in a nautilus shell had called him to earth by dreaming of
a man of dark
ale and fire. Fuego waged mighty battle with the demon pirate king that
had enslaved the tiny girl. With furious wrath, Fuego showered flaming
stars and lightning down upon the him. Defeated, the king became Fuego's
booking agent and the girl became his receptionist.
Sandwich
Born of the illicit love of a sardine for a sea
monkey, Sandwich was swallowed by a sperm whale shortly after her birth.
Unable to read or write, she illustrated the conditions of her imprisonment
on cocktail napkins that she inserted into rum bottles then ejected through
the whale’s spout hoping for rescue. Many a passing pirate recovered
these pictograms, but unable to decipher the meaning, hung them on their
cabin walls.
Shanghai Mike
Shanghai was abducted from the shore of the Gulf of Mexico at the tender age of five. Caribbean pirates seized him while he was digging calms with his not so trusty dog Yeller. Whisked away to the Far East and sold into slavery, it was soon discovered that Mike had hidden talents. His skill with his clam digging stick convinced his captures that he would be better off with the Fighting Monks of Mongo. He was sent to live a train with them. At the monastery Mike mastered many martial arts and after 30 long years returned home with nothing better to do.
