Admiral Cloudbeard

Behold the "Sultan of the Skies", the "Conqueror of the Clouds", the "Tyrant at Ten Thousand Feet": Admiral Cloudbeard, leader of the Sky Pirates! This malevolent marauder is undefeated in hand-to-hook combat thanks to his massive, untamed beard making him an impossible target. His opponents can never tell where the beard ends and the Admiral begins. It's so thick that swords get stuck in it and shots get completely absorbed. Legend has it that his mighty beard has even survived being shot with a cannonball!

There is only one sky dweller brave enough to face the Admiral head-on and capable enough to come out of it alive and intact, his arch-nemesis: Ronza! The Admiral and his legion of ne'er-do-wells have been hunting Ronza and her enormous cache of chrome treasures for as long as they've sailed the skies. Unfortunately for them, she has consistently managed to elude, confuse, defeat, and humiliate Cloudbeard and his cronies at every turn. The Admiral has vowed to never give up on his quest for vengeance against that legendary sky captain, no matter how many limbs it costs him.

♫ We pirate, pillage, and plight,

Attacking every ship in flight!

Those that oppose, face the beard that he grows,

And he'll never give up the fight! ♫
