Ciro Maddigan, also known as The Corsair Queen, is a Pirate Lord of Liquid-Metallicon and the captain of the Typa Gypsy.
Description[edit | edit source]
Appearance[edit | edit source]
Ciro is a young lady with raven black hair and dark eyes. She has pale skin and a slight frame, and many would consider her very beautiful. Ciro wears haute fashion, often seen in oriental inspired dresses, stylised renaissance attire and other Art Deco forms of fashion.
Personality[edit | edit source]
On the surface, Ciro may at first seem sympathetic and even kind, but most discover this is a front. Ciro is conniving, devious and manipulative, and ruthless when circumstance demands it of her. Ciro plays her sexual desirability for an upper hand, even being able to sway those not otherwise attracted to human females. On occasion, Ciro has been known to fly into whirlwind rage, a fit of passion that only lasts minutes, but can be devastating for those on the receiving end.
As Captain of the Typa Gypsy, Ciro leads her crew with a cavalier attitude, though she does care deeply for her ship, going to extreme lengths to protect it from damage or capture.
History[edit | edit source]
Early Life and Becoming a Pirate[edit | edit source]
Ciro was born to trader parents who ran goods between Oros II and Ordon V, trading in raw materials at the Oros system and consumer grade electronics at the Ordon system. When her parent's vessel was boarded by pirates, Ciro was taken as part of the looting. She was set to work in the Captain's mess as a maid, but Ciro had other designs. At the age of 15, she seduced the Captain, and when he let his guard down, slew him with a letter opener. Ciro declared herself the new captain of the Blade Dancer, and shot the pirate vessel's Bosun when he protested. As such, her life in piracy began.
Ascendancy to Pirate Lord[edit | edit source]
Ciro wasted no time in seizing other ships from aboard the Blade Dancer. As she raided her way across space toward Liquid-Metallicon, she came across a Pirate Lord, and bested him in single combat, winning his ship and redubbing it the Typa Gypsy. Her besting a Pirate Lord also granted her that status. Once she reached Liquid-Metallicon, Ciro sold the other ships, dismissing their crews and keeping only a group of Terugans from the Blade Dancer. She subsequently used the money fitting Typa Gypsy with an Exotic Matter Formatting Drive allowing the ship massively extended range, speed and hyperspace capabilities.
Abilities and Powers[edit | edit source]
Many of Ciro's powers are as yet unknown, but it is documented that she possess the following abilities.
- Persuasion: Ciro is a masterful manipulator and diplomat, able to change minds seemingly as if by magic. It is unclear if this is a power Ciro manifests or is merely a result of her conversational skills.
- Piloting: Ciro is an excellent pilot and navigator, often taking the helm of her ship herself.
