Captain Blood

Origin
Peter Blood was an Irish physician in the late 17th Century who served as a soldier, sailor, and eventually, one of the most feared pirate captains in the Caribbean. After attending the wounded during a revolution, Blood was arrested for treason, but he managed to escape, leading him on a great series of adventures. He was later pardoned, after the Glorious Revolution, for saving Jamaica from the French.
