A pirate sailing from The Iron Forest, Calico first appeared in the public eye in 1715, after sailing his ship, The Cerberus, into Key West in search of a crew. Little is known about him other than his apparent Irish heritage, noble upbringing, and current occupation as a pirate and bard. It is strongly suggested that he was once a naval officer, though this is disputed. He can often be heard speaking broken Italian to maidens who don’t know any better or singing shanties and drinking songs to/with all those in earshot. Calico, while seemingly uninterested in the politics of Belegarth, exhibits fierce loyalty to those he allies himself with, notably Toph and Welshie of Galahad.

When not fighting, drinking, or singing, Calico can be found exhibiting all sorts of gentleman-roguery toward the fairer sex, flirting with lady archers, and instilling deep-seated Stockholm Syndrome in female hostages. Curiously, it is rare that he makes good on these advances. There is, however, one well documented romantic liaison of his known as the Kingston Incident.

[edit] Disappearance

Having evaded a Royal Navy patrol, The Cerberus was overtaken by a tropical storm. Captain Calico ordered the hatches battened, sails dampened, and all crew to remain safely below until the storm had ended. In order to ensure the ship's safety, the captain lashed himself to the helm to help control their bearing as best he could and keep the ship from capsizing. As the storm finally blew over, the crew returned to the deck to find Calico gone, the tatters of his coat still lashed to the ship's wheel. A symbolic funeral was held for him at sea and Tossk was elected the new captain of the ship.
