Name:
Lydia Phillips
Nickname:
Scarlet, sometimes shortened to Scar
Appearance:
Scar is a surprisingly tall woman, adding to the intimidating demeanor she holds as first mate. The way she dresses is 'classy' compared to the outfits of other pirates, despite the not-so-modest reveals of her cleavage. She prefers to wear long coats, tall brown boots and form fitting pants, or stockings. On some days, she'll wear
corsets. Little braids can be seen in her dark red hair. There's always a cold, murderous stare in her emerald eyes that makes people shudder. Scar's smiles rarely show genuine happiness or passion; they're usually malicious grins, smirks and sarcastic twitches of her lips. There's a lot of valuable jewelry on her person, too. Treasures obtained from chests that 9 Lives himself was willing to share with his loyal companion. There's always a black pirate hat on her head, too. It symbolizes her authority and she finds that it coordinates well with her attire. Overall, a beautiful woman. Someone that 9 Lives likes to keep around because she makes him 'look better'.
Age:
27
Job:
First Mate to 9 Lives
Scars/tattoos:
There's a long scar along her belly, from below her left rib cage to her right hip. It looks like a thin line just crossing over her body. The wound that scar once was would have killed her if immediate treatment wasn't given by the surgeon. That aside, she has some smaller markings from swords, arrows and knives littering her body. They are minor flaws people barely notice. On the back of her neck, there is a tattoo in the shape of a pair of red lips. There are several different meanings behind the image; beauty, love, cuteness, and the hint that she likes to be kissed on the neck. Few see this tattoo, though. It's purposely hidden behind her long hair.
Equipment/personal weapons:
The weapons in the picture are on her at all times. She keeps the knife in a sheath on her belt. The flintlock pistol is kept in a holster on that same belt. Scarlet also carries a
cutlass oftentimes carried on her back. To not be unprepared, she keeps her stash of ammunition filled up.
Persona:
There are two sides to Lydia; your attitude determines which side you see. People who are disrespectful, idiotic and negative see the nasty side of her. She does not care if you like her or hate her. As a woman in charge, she will not tolerate bullshit and make your life a living nightmare until you're straightened out. If you're willing to cooperate and respect her, she can be one of the nicest people you've ever seen. She'll make jokes with you, drink with you and compliment you. All of that aside, she's a woman to fear, no matter how friendly you've gotten. She does not care if you're a child, a lady, a queen, or a professional killer. You're just a person to her, and a person that's going to
work. Beneath that rough exterior though, she truly cares for the crew. Without them, she and the captain are nothing!
Short Bio:
Lydia is a woman born into piracy. Never in her life has she lived on anything but a ship! This is where her hot headed personality, greed, love for the ocean, love for murder, and impressive knowledge of the world comes from. The harsh conditions she endured and the bone breaking work everyday made her into the tough woman she is. Nothing seems to scare her; nothing seems to upset her. 9 Lives was impressed with her skills while watching her grow up. In exchange for her loyalty and promise to do good work, he gave her a commanding position. Since that day, she's done nothing but obey his demands and keep everything in line. The crew, her Captain and the ship are her pride and joy.
