Kane Pyke

"I extend this mercy to you once, and once alone. Bother me and my crew again, and we will not be so gracious.. "

- Captain Kane to a defeated J'Sandro Kane Pyke is a pirate captain who has been active for decades within the Abecean Sea. He captains The Jackal and currently uses the ship in his bid to capture the Elder Scroll.

Background
Kane was born in Rihad to a father who worked aboard a trade ship. He often took Kane along with him on trade missions, showing the boy the ropes pertaining to sailing; educating him on its intricacies at a young age. When Kane was of age, he moved to Cyrodiil in search of a better life, using the knowledge of sailing he gained over time. He eventually enlisted with the New West Navy, serving in that branch of the Imperial Legion for many years until The Great War. Kane fought valiantly against the Aldmeri aboard the ship, The Crusader, but his efforts ultimately proved fruitless when the Empire surrendered to the Dominion. Dissapointed, Kane lost faith in the Empire and decided to abandon them along with several comrades he made while in the legion. Captain Kane served in the Imperial navy for years before he abandoned them after the Empire's defeat in the Great War. Back when he was still active, he met two young soldiers in the navy, looking to serve the Empire any way they could. Their names were Ocarus Marillo, and Avik Syod. The trio became fast friends in a short amount of time, being in the legion often did that. The captain always saw the three of them as remarkably similar, and yet, counterparts of eachother; what each othem could've become depending on how their paths diverged after the Great War. Avik and Kane were like-minded in that they both lost faith in the Empire after the White-Gold Concordant. Kane stole the ship they served on from port in Anvil, and sailed it straight to Stros M'Kai, where it was reoutfitted as a pirate ship and renamed  The Jackal. Sailing and fighting was all Kane ever knew to do, and he relished the freedom of a pirate's life. But now knowing that his two former comrades had made names for themselves while he was not much more than a highwayman... That made him think. It made him feel like he had something to prove.

Feats
Kane earned the rank of a captain and officer in the New West Navy prior to his defection for outstanding service in the Legion.

Captain Kane grew to minor fame years ago during a string of raids on ships in the Cape of the Blue Divide, earning him and the Jackal decent notoriety for a brief amount of time.
