Edith Darkwater (also known as Edith of Darkwater, Edith the Dreaded, Edith the Bloody, and The Dread Queen of Darkwater) was the notorious leader of the Darkwater Dozen, a pirate fleet which harassed merchant ships and the fledgling Belgritian navy from AY 1095 to AY 1122, as well as conducting other raids along the southern coast of Delun from Al-Uqh to Ordinatus.
Aside from her more mundane exploits, Edith has also ascended into a figure of myth and legend, said to have stolen the moon from the sky and sunk the entire Belgritian armada and all manner of other such nonsense.

Footnotes
- The Vanguard disappeared on its maiden voyage from the Arthan shipyards to Araxia in AY 1094, one year before the first recorded mention of Edith Darkwater. Though it was presumed sunk at the time, it bore a striking resemblance to the Zephyr and was one of the earliest vessels to be outfitted with runeshot.
