Cutie Mark: She is a pirate of sorts and her cutie mark is a red flag, It's a symbol for her passion of exploring new places and marking them. <br /><br />She got her cutie mark during her first time on a real expedition to unknown land with her foster father Nego. They had found a rather large island, And on this island Audacia discovered a cave where she decided to carve her name into the caves wall, Thus getting her cutie mark.

Personality: Audacia is a very raise morale kind of character, and she looks out for the ones she cares about. She's not to serious and can take a joke, As well as a punch. <br /><br />She drinks quite alot, Sometimes to the extent that it becomes a problem, But she enjoys a good drink with her crew.<br /><br />The thing that defines Audacia the most is her daring, bold and adventurous side yet staying a very happy cheerful pony. She cares alot about her crew and the ponies she knows and is not afraid to stand up or fight for them if needed.<br /><br />She can be intimidating and is very tough, Since it's something you need being a pirate. Her biggest flaw as a character is that she can be very cocky and underestimate foes.

Backstory: Audacia was born out at sea, On her fathers boat during a supply trip to the Griffin kingdom Harbor. Evrything was going smooth untill they were cought in a storm during the night, All of the crew including Audacias parents were swept of the boat and dissappeared in the ocean. The next morning the empty boat were dicovered by Griffin scouts, And they took of course took her in. From that Point on she was raised in the Griffin Harbor by a griffin named Nego who was a good friend and client to her father.<br /><br />As she grew up she learnt alot about the sea, Ships and evrything you would need to know for a life out at sea. She Went on alot of expiditions with Nego and his crew during their time togheter. But Nego was already old, And he passed away during Audacias early teens. His ship was passed on to her since Nego was unable to have any children himself, But she only got the ship, With no crew. She diden't see any meaning in having a ship without any crew and made the desicion to sell it.<br /><br />She stuck around the harbor taking any job that she could get, Even though she barely made money she still continued to maintain her positive attitude. She did have a small drinking problem and this is where alot of her money went. She quickly got bored of the life in the harbor and wanted to get out and actually do something with her life, So she took a job on a fishing vessel. She liked it at first, But quickly realized this wasen't what she was looking for, But it was a job that kept the money coming. <br /><br />She and the rest of her fishing crew were out far at sea one night, As if from no where they were cought in a firce storm, Many were swept of the boat and lost at sea. The ones who was able to stay on the boat weren't exactly lucky though, The boat suffered major damage and eventually sunk. During the chaos Audacia was cut over her right eye, Later leaving a scar. Luckily Audacia was a decent swimmer and was able to make it to a small Island nearby togheter with the captain of the vessel, His name is Molmir. Molmir is a large stallion whose body is covered in scars, His appearance may be scary but he was a gentle and peacful stallion. They were the only survivors of the tragedy, And had to survive for about a month before being spotted by Another fishing vessel. Once again Audacia found herself in a Harbor, This time the Great Equestrian Harbor. Equestria wasen't nearly as harsh as the Griffon kingdom, But it was plauged both by desiese and pirates at the time Audacia arrived.<br /><br />Even though Equestrias Harbor wasen't as harsh envoriment wise, She struggled alot more to get a job there. She stayed togheter with Molmir during her time in Equestria, And eventually he found a job in the newly started "Anti-Pirate force", But they denied Audacias application because of reasons she never got to know. She had a pretty good idea of why she was denied though, Since there were no other mares in the anti-pirate force. Not only bacause of a lack of job oppertunities, but also because of her hate for the anti-pirate force, She finally decided to take first best oppertunity to join the savage pirates. She thought herself to fight, And trained days on end with a sword she stole from a blacksmith.<br /><br />As the day she longed for arrived, And the pirates attacked, She in the chaos of it all confronted the captain in a duell. They were pretty much equally matched and wasn't even able touch each other. As the seemingly endless fight continued Audacia explained her motivations to become a pirate. The captain didn't even begin to concider it, until audcia finaly was able to land a hit and cut him on his right chin. The captain was impressed, Not showing it though, All he said was "That's a first..." As he signaled his crew to fall back. As he turned around to fallow his crew back to the boat he stopped, Turning his head to Audacia, "Ye comming with?". Audacia without hesitation joined the group of pirates, The last thing she saw before taking course out at sea was the dissappointed look of her former captain and friend Molmir. <br /><br />At this time she was 19 years old. Most of the pirates were skeptical towards her at first, But she quickly became a valued and liked member. They taught her many things about sword fighting, Cocky as a she was she at first didn't belive she needed it since she had bested their captain, But she quickly realized that was a lucky hit with a small amount of skill to it after some harsh training.<br /><br />Toghter with what she concidered the family she never had she had many adventures and good times. Due to her previous experince with ships she later became a second in command on the ship, And as all her previous "mentors" the captain known as Buccaneer (Yep... I'm not that creative okay!?)passed away, And the responsebilety as captain was passed on to Audacia. Now roaming the sea, Living the life she longed for, Audacia is thriving in the life of a pirate.<br />
