Biography:

The oldest of three in a middle class family, Dante had many interests growing up. However, arrangements he was not fond of and the death of his mother helped catapult him into being a rebellious runaway at the age of 15. He is secretive about his past, but will give honest answers when asked about it.

Approaching Captain Turner with a deal to help repair his reputation, Turner agreed and after a few short months made Rackham his boatswain. Dante was intrigued with Pierce’s proposed contract, but did not like the idea of having women aboard ship. Much to his dismay, many trials and tough choices await him on this out of the ordinary expedition.
