“Welcome to the Pirate101 Rogue’s Gallery. Subject, Milo Graytail
The Graytails had lived in Marleybone for as long as anyone could remember. They were a simple family, hardy and adaptable folk from the emerald hills of Albion. When it became too hard to farm they moved to the city and remained there for years... but that became harder too. Soon Milo’s Dad could find no work and the spectre of debtor’s prison began to take on a truer and more solid reality. Dad reckoned the family was better off moving again...
And that’s how Milo's family came to Scrimshaw in Skull Island. Things weren’t as posh as Marleybone had been, but both Mum and Dad Graytail found work, which meant little Milo and his twenty siblings grew up mostly unsupervised on the hardscrabble streets of Scrimshaw.
Luckily, Milo’s good-naturedness immediately made him a mascot and “little brother” of the various sailors and skyfaring types that made Scrimshaw a regular port of call. By the time he was a teenager Milo felt as at home on a vessel as he did in his parent’s house. It was only natural that he would heed the call of the skyways!
Being young and impressionable, Milo was a little astounded to find that his first crew was a bunch of pirates. But it was hard not to be during the Napoleguinic wars – if you tried to join a merchant crew you’d often find yourself pressed into military service of some kind. In its own way piracy was safer - or at least it seemed that way.
That was before Milo’s ship came under attack by Goatbeard – Scourge of the Seven Skyways! In a devastating attack Milo found his ship destroyed, most of his crew lost, and himself chained to an oar in the galley of Goatbeard’s Galleon, The Shepherd’s Crook. It seemed quite likely he’d spend the rest of his life there too.
Fortunately for Milo, Goatbeard was attacked soon after by another Pirate crew, one led by an amiable married couple...
The pair not only freed Milo, they made him part of their own crew, with equal share of all loot! Milo had found yet another home. He happily sailed with the couple until sadly they were lost to a storm.
Heartbroken, Milo served here and there on several other Pirate crews around Skull Island. The rising tensions between Marleybone and Monquista created ample opportunities for pirates looking for plunder. But Milo took one easy job too many: his ship was attacked by Monquistans and he found himself in chains in the Presidio.
