Description:
The legendary Captain Jacobi arrived on Shartak so long ago he isn't even sure how long he has been here.
Fleeing from his highbrow brother, he ran his vessel The Rusty Spoon aground along an atoll nearby the actual shipwreck.
Upon swimming ashore he trekked off into the jungle, only to be hacked to pieces by the infamous Long Fin Kille. Running from the malicious character, Captain Jacobi soon discovered the mouth of a river (aptly named the Long Fin River). There was a motley crew of pirates and outsider alike who all shared a fondness for the river mouth. They quickly bonded and formed the River Borne Fury, the first clan to operate in only one square. They quickly fell apart.
From then on Captain Jacobi spent much of his time exploring the area around the shipwreck, and mapping the island (however he found himself killed so many times mapping seemed impossible).
For a brief period of time Captain Jacobi could be found within the Sacred Space, gathering apples.
Near the supposed end of Shartak, Captain Jacobi joined the Headhunters in a grand ceremony. While he was there he was possessed by a spirit that showed him the secret of the Anti-Cough. Sharing this secret with the Headhunters yielded an Honorary Headhunter Title, which Captain Jacobi wears with pride.
After the end of the Island failed to occur, Captain Jacobi explored more of the island and made more friends (and even more enemies). He wandered about looking for another Heavy Sword, and spent a great deal of effort collecting fruit for nefarious, debaucherous purposes.
Much time had passed since all that faff, and Captain Jacobi had finally awoken from his long and deep slumber. He spent a long time fighting his way across the island, slaying the vile animals to gain the ability to put a parrot on his shoulder. How the correlation between killing things and parrots was made has yet to be determined.
At some point, Captain Jacobi wandered down to Durham, where his brother Commodore Jacobi was stationed. With his brother no where to be found, Captain Jacobi decided to stay in Durham, collecting FAK's and looking for the so-called "Pistol".
Recently, he has awoken from a years-long slumber to putz about on the island of Shartak once more and bore people with his memories of the good old days.
