1560

The Grand Conte di Farnoy was on his Royal Galley La Loba when the Armada Real was intercepted by a horde of pirates. The fleet fought with a ferocious vigour, likely knowing the end that awaited them against such a force. The battle may have been lost sooner if the Grand Conte wasn't so good at kicking huge quantities of poor-peoples' collective arses. The Grand Conte was the last survivor on La Loba, being cornered by over 200 pirates.

The Grand Conte picked up his rapier and thrust aside vast swathes of uncouth pirates, scum and all the worst kinds of villeins. Making his way to the bow chasers he single handedly swiveled a cannon round and loosed forth a firey salvo of leaden hellions straight from the very deepest bowls of the Styx. Amid such a flurry of savagery the Grand Conte slaying swathes and mobs of wretched peasant-folk lost his footing on the bow deck on slipped onto the for'd bowsprit of the grand galley. Pirate after pirate came up the bowsprit to fight the Grand Conte, each dying against his superior proletariat slaying skills.

Finally the captain of the pirates came to fight the Grand Conte, The Purple Pompadour, the fight lasted for a solid thirty seconds until the Grand Conte successfully planted the pirating miscreant's face firmly in the dusty wood where it belongs. After all of this, the large group of terrified filthy criminals gathered on the forecastle to cower in the Grand Conte's shadow as he delivered an awe-inspiring final sentence to the marauding pirates gathered there. "You will remember this as the day you almost caught Don Carlo Ferdinando di Farnoy, Grand Conte di Farnoy." And with that he plunged himself into the water and floated away on a gunboat into a life of adventure and hot babes. The scurrilous pirates that attacked that fleet will never forget that fated day when they met, the Grand Conte di Farnoy.

(P.S. Don Carlo Ferdinando di Farnoy, Grand Conte di Farnoy abandoned his throne to live out this new life of adventure on the twenty-eight seas, and as such, I have no purpose in this RP anymore, but the Grand Conte de Farnoy lives on!)
