# Legend of Rustbeard

Before he was a terror of the seas, Rustbeard was just a shipwright with a screw loose—
\
A tinkerer. A pirate.
\
He vanished chasing whispers beneath the ocean floor.
\
Now he’s back. Not as a man…
\
But as a machine fueled by pressure, vengeance, and the abyss.

Some say he found an ancient engine beneath the seabed—older than the Isles themselves. Others whisper he became the engine. Whatever the truth… his hull creaks with sorrow, and his eyes glow with endless fury. 

Rustbeard isn’t just back. He’s evolving.
