The middle son of the Pirate King, Kelly has had his share of bad luck. He was never very able as a pirate, far too much of a dreamer. He quit the family business and was promptly captured by the British. On his way to England for execution, his prison ship was attacked and sunk. A soft heart, he heard a small child crying in the wreckage and managed to save himself and yet get himself and the child stranded on a deserted island. Little Bonnie, a twin sister of Franie, grew up as his adopted daughter.
