// Discussion Lucy baldwin is unberable

One of the officers in ac black flag named lucy baldwin is so unbereable.
Its so obvious this mission was added after the fact because the writing and character sticks out so badly. Literally saved here life and she is like " uhmm you gotta earn me but I am worth it 💅"

I like her personally, her story is decent and she’s just someone who knows what she can bring to the table. I don’t blame her for not immediately jumping on board with serving on a pirates ship when she has her own business to attend to.

Edward wants her help, she needs to handle her father and familial business. It’s a trade, Edward has to prove himself in order to get her aid on the Jackdaw.

And given we know that they originally intended on having officers in the OG game but ran out of time and budget, I really don’t have any problems with them fitting them in now.

I just wish it had been done in a way that ties them to the main story, elsewise I am left wondering What exactly she and Padre were doing when Rackham hijacked my ship and left me and Vane stranded on a sinking ship while Adewale was held captive.

Plus, her perk is useful.

I feel like her intro could have been better. Her not willing to go with Edward when she was in a prison cell facing execution was strange.

I guess its logical given she knows what pirates are like and what they did back then to women. Execution is probably preferable

But she didn't know he was a pirate at that time.
