Felix Kershaw

Felix Kershaw was born in May 11th, 1680. As a young boy Felix used to love watching all the Navy soldiers do their duties around the town, occasionally helping. As soon as Felix was able to, he enlisted in the Navy, much to the despair of his parents, who simply wanted him to own a factory and live a simple life. Felix didn't want to live a simple life, he wanted the joys of being a navy sailor!

When he first started in the navy, he was a bit disappointed. All the glamour from his childhood, all the stories he heard, he didn't expect the reality. He was expecting to join and go straight out and fight in large battles, but alas, he was to be mistaken. He regularly got into trouble with his superior officers, usually for not obeying commands properly. After he finished training in 1701, he was put on the Prince George, a 96 second rate. She was originally called the HMS Duke, but was later renamed to HMS Prince George after the future of George II of great Britain. This ship was under the command of a Captain Stephan Martin. This was the flagship of the Britain during the Battle of Velez (Otherwise known as the battle of Malaga). During this time, the British and the French both took heavy casualties and suffered heavy damage. Felix Kershaw was badly injured during the intense fighting.

After the battle, Felix decided he didn't want any more of this. He didn't like the navy life with all it's strict rules and customs - he wanted freedom. He arranged to leave the navy and become a privateer, so he could command his own ships and lead as he sees fit. After much deliberation, he decided that if he really wanted to leave his mark on history, he is going to have to get help, and on the evening of May 11th, 1723, he joined the St George Squadron for assistance in helping him reach his goals and to assist in the victory of Britain in the Great war.

Currently Felix owns two ships, with a bad habit of spending large amounts of money making them suit him.
