finally done with these oc refs!! This is Peck and Allura, Chew's parents!!
Allura is the daughter of two very wealthy socialites, and grew tired with her job within their business. Using their money, she bought herself a large ship and some muscle, taking to the seas with delusions of becoming a feared, notorious pirate. She decided her first act, to make a name for herself and get some treasury stock, was slave running for a few months. She started with Peck, choosing to "seduce" him. He fell in love, and she fed into every woo....until it developed into an actual relationship...then an engagement....and a wedding....and finally a child.
She had got caught up in the façade, initially forgetting the original plan altogether until she was about 8 months pregnant. She made her plan then- if the child could pass for human, she would keep it. If it took after the father, it would join the father. A month after Chew was born, Peck walked outside with the babe in hand to a gun pointed at his face, Allura on the other end.
Peck woke with a broken nose in the back of a blacked out cart with his crying infant in hand. He begged for the babe to be spared...and at least luckily, the mule relented, dropping Chew in the seagrass close to the Noah. Peck was a slave for many years, freed during Fisher Tiger's siege on the Holy Lands. Scarred up, old, and tired, he barley managed to scrape away the brand on his arm before wearily, quickly making his way back to Fishman Island....but he was too late to reunite. Just as he had gotten into the mainland, Chew had just left with the Sun Pirates.
A day after Allura had sold Peck, she made her way to a different island, blew all of her money on liquor and partying, killed 4 civilians and a Marine, and found herself on an execution block within a week. A pirate with no notoriety or bounty.
Peck currently lives with Calypso, the woman having found him on her doorstep sobbing not long after he had gotten back to Fishman Island. He had no home, so she offered the little space she had for him. He goes out on long trips now, searching desperately for his child. His searching will light a fire under Calypso to find her own boy.
