Rebel Riots (crew)

The Rebel Riots is the pirate crew led by Harriet Hook.

History
Harriet Hook is the firstborn of Captain Hook, but due her sex, the spotlight was stolen by her younger brother Harry. Harriet had always had to work twice the time harder to earn what was supposed to be her birth right. However, tired of being looked down and rejected, she decided to start her own crew and be with people who would truly respect her.

Harriet reunited with her lifelong friend Murph and asked him to be the Quartermaster, her second-in-command. Murph willingly accepted. Harriet also asked Sammy Smee to be the Boatswain, since he was 'pretty good in putting things in order'. However, Sammy refused, he wanted to be with his family and take care of his little brothers. Harriet respected Sammy's decision, and assured him that he would always be welcomed to the crew if he ever decides to join. Harriet and Murph continued their search for crew members. Harriet contacted her complicated friend Lena Jaeger, a skilled hunter, to offer her the position of Master Gunner. Lena eagerly accepted. The small crew had their first official meeting, where they agreed the name Rebel Riots.

Once reunited enough resources, Harriet decided to get a ship. There weren't a lot of ships around the Isle of the Lost, most of them were wreckage. However, there was one ship that hasn't had an owner in a long while, the Black Star. Harriet decided to purchase it, unaware of the legend of the ship. The seller, who knew the tragedy that came behind those that tried to own the ship, expected Harriet suffer the same fate as everyone else. Conversely, it was the seller and his men who suffered the tragic fate when he stepped on the ship without Harriet's permission.

The Black Star wasn't in poor condition, but it still needed fixing and upgrades. Harriet started to look for a Carpenter and the only one she found was Tom Ibarzabal. Even though everyone disliked Tom, Harriet still recruited him and only had intention to keep him until the ship is completely fixed or until they find another Carpenter.

A few days later, the Rebel Riots were visited by an odd-looking girl. She came looking for the legendary Captain of the Black Star. She introduced herself to be Sachiko Miyazaki and wished to apply for Boatswain. The crew was left bewildered by the request. Harriet wanted to know what Sachiko could do and asked for a demonstration of her skills. She told Sachiko to come aboard, but Sachiko refused, insisting to wait until she's officially part of the crew. Harriet, annoyed, denied Sachiko a position in the crew. Sachiko apologised and asked for a second chance, agreeing to show her skills. She asked for a combatant, which Harriet didn't think twice and offered herself. Murph stopped Harriet, offering to go instead. Harriet denied, she prepared herself for combat. Seeing that Sachiko didn't have a sword, Harriet told Murph to lend her opponent his sword. Sachiko declined, as she had her own weapon: her war fan. Harriet was quickly defeated, while Sachiko remained untouched. Irritated by the defeat, Harriet pulled out her gun and attempted to shoot Sachiko. Murph managed to warn Sachiko in time. Sachiko quickly disarmed Harriet and knocked her out unconscious. Everyone were shocked, they couldn't process how everything just happened in just few minutes. Sachiko assured the crew that Harriet was alive, then instructed the crew to put her somewhere comfortable, and when she'd wake up, to give her some warm water, preferably tea. Sachiko said she'd be back the next day, then left.

Harriet regained consciousness later that day, disoriented. Murph made sure that Harriet was calm, then proceeded to tell her what happened, which she decided not to make a comment on it. She said she wanted to see Sachiko right that moment, but Murph urged her to rest and wait until tomorrow. He also offered to talk if Harriet wanted to. Harriet requested to be alone, and thanked Murph for looking after her.

The next day, Sachiko arrived. Sachiko apologised Harriet for knocking her out, and Harriet apologised for having pointed the gun at Sachiko. Both sides forgave each other. After a brief chat, Harriet accepted Sachiko into the crew as Boatswain.

Some time later, Sachiko told Harriet about the legend of the Black Star. It is said that only the right Captain can sail the the ship. Harriet was overwhelmed, but she believed the story. Sachiko opened up more about herself. She's from Witch Lair, also known as the witch district. When she heard the news, she had to come to see it by herself as soon as possible.
