Bristol,
the Hispaniola
Jack
Boon is known as (Lucky) Black Jack, for his computer hacking skills and incredible
luck at times when the chips are down. He is a modern pirate with a love of
antiques that he collects, attacking corporations and holding them to
ransom, with viruses. But those days are over, after he had a lot of his ill
gotten property confiscated, when he could not account for where the money
came from.
For
this reason he is reverting to treasure
hunting, finding tangible gold and gemstones, that might be traded, to
launder the find. Or, heaven forbid, gain a legitimate reward as a
finders-fee. Since some treasure troves are valued in the $Billions.
Black
Jack is also aware of the stunning, Artificially
Intelligent, Elizabeth
Swann, and would like to get his hands on the juicy tech for his own use
as a hacker - should such an opportunity arise. He knows that they are looking for buried pirate treasure, but
is unsure if it is Blackbeard's
long-lost buried treasure, or Henry
Morgan's undiscovered hoard. Or what.
Boon
is introduced to Lord Huntington by William Gray. He is mates with Billy One
Eye and John Long, to whom he owes his allegiance. He signs on as a crew
member of the Hispaniola.
