possible rp continued
my character would, as far as i can tell for now, my character is the child of a european adventurer who was sort of an anthropologist, though i'm not sure they had those in that time. either way, it was his passion, and one day, deep within the heart of africa, he is attacked by a lion. barely alive, he stumbles into a native village and is nursed back to health by a native woman, and they bond over time, eventually having a child together. the child, despite having a full-blooded african mother, is born white. a prophecy in the village tells of a white child that would be born of the village and that "the earth upon which the child walks will lament at it's passing". fearing the fulfillment of the prophecy, the villagers exile the family and promise death to them should they return. after a long journey through the continent, the family is able to find transport to the father's native europe. the child seems at ease when on the ocean, but upon landing, the prophecy begins to seem less and less farfetched. the father is killed in a brawl outside of the local tavern, and the mother and child are left alone in a strange new land. after years of strife and hardship, the mother decides that as long as they are on land they would never be safe, as the curse implied. the young man grows into an english patriot and naval officer, fighting again and again to protect his shores from various rogues and criminals. upon returning from sea one day, the man finds that his mother, still youthful and beautiful despite having a full grown child, had caught the eye of a pirate, who abducted her. when his country refuses to allow him to search for his mother while in their employ, he agrees to leave the navy and become a privateer
