"Mistress Ching…long time, no…see."

―Jack Sparrow

Mistress Ching was a blind Pirate Lord during the time of Lord Cutler Beckett's attempts to eradicate piracy in the Caribbean. Ching was the lord of the Pacific Ocean, and was known to have traveled five of the seven seas.

Biography

Ching commanded an armada of junks that terrorized the Chinese coasts ever since she took control of the pirate confederation of China following her husband's death. She was a profiteer of smuggled trade goods between Japan and China, and her pirates were known to victimize their opponents, with beheadings being their preferred form of torture.

Ching was wanted dead or alive by the East India Trading Company for crimes including sacking and pillaging countless villages, cutting off ears for souvenirs, running a brothel and gambling house, and collaborating with secret societies to systematically extort local merchants. The reward was 3,400 guineas. Ching evaded capture by the EITC and joined the Brethren Court at Shipwreck Cove to unite with Jack Sparrow and his followers against Lord Beckett.

Behind the scenes
