Who is Jolly Roger?
'Twas a position Jolly Roger long believed he deserved far more than Captain Jack. But when the captain of the Black Pearl gained the seat - though some whisper it was craftily attained -- Jolly Roger's jealous fury raged towards Jack and he vowed vengeance. Jolly Roger then conspired with a Voodoo witch doctor to settle the score. Together, they schemed to rig a card game to trick Jack out of his piece of eight -- the coin and beads entwined in Sparrow's hair -- a symbol of membership to the esteemed Pirate Brethren.Jack coincidentally drew the winning hand through a combination of luck and guile. The victory further enraged Jolly Roger and triggered the ill-tempered loser to brutally slay the witch doctor right on the spot. In his final living moments, the witch doctor invoked a vindictive spell on his slayer. Legend has it that the evil curse doomed Jolly Roger to walk the Earth as the undead.
As the shaman's body dissipated into dust, Jolly Roger inherited the all-powerful Voodoo forces of his victim and was then transformed into a skeletal beast with empty gaping sockets for eyes and a gnarled fleshless hoof as his leg. Armed with a sinister flintlock and cutlass contraption in place of a limb, he became the heinous abomination now known as Jolly Roger, the villainous leader of an undead horde. The new power granted him the ability to devour his victims' souls and then raise them from the dead with his own supernatural breath. He began to build an army of undead monsters - each creature becoming an extension of Jolly's own dark soul.Cursed to terrorize the high seas for eternity, Jolly Roger now unleashes his dark powers to raise the rotting remains of dead Pirates to do his evil bidding -- a fate far worse than death. Be forewarned, his abilities are far from being limited to raising the dead. He has inflicted his dark influence upon many natural creatures including: undead alligators, bats, wasps, crabs, scorpions, and deadly stalking tree stumps. They all possess malicious intents akin to Jolly Roger himself.Those who treasure their lives, souls, and loved ones best steer clear of this evildoer's deadly path ... or pay the price, for he will not rest until he becomes absolute ruler of the Caribbean.

Desert Climate
The geography in the desert is very plain and rocky with only few mountains depending on what desert and area your in. The animals that live in the desert get their water from their food and are used to not having water for a long time. The vegetation in the desert is very little and mostly only cacti live there and are used to having no water for a long time. The climate is very very dry and almost has no humidity.

Rainforest
The Rain forest is called the lungs of the earth because it creates 50% of our oxygen and takes our CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) . Did you know that it has have of the earth's plants and animals, the sad part is that a species dies every 15 minutes. The rain forest has 3 layers and the top is where most the plants and animals live. The 2nd layer is where all the tree trunks are and animals that live in the trunks. The 1st is where small animals and plants live and trees decompose.

Marine Ecosystem
The Euphotic zone gives life to coral and Plantation and smaller fish. The Bthyal zone gets little light and gives life to big mammals like whales. The Abyssal zone fish need special lights to live because there is no light. The Euphotic has a much hotter climate then Abyssal and Bthyal. The Bthyal has a middle climate between Abyssal and Euphotic. The Abyssal has a very cold climate and is colder then Bthyal.
Biomes
The tropical biome actually gets up to 150 inches of rain each year. It is a very humid area and supports a lot of animals. Temperate biomes have very fertile soil and oaks grow there. If people thought about the things that animals give us maybe people might think about how to save them from our growing population that is polluting the earth. The northern biome supports a lot of animals and could kill them if we melt it with global warming.

Climate
Every wondered why the ice regions are in the north and south, its because in the middle of the earth the sun is absorbed because it is most of the time a flat surface. It is round at the to so the rays just barely scratch it. Its also the fact that ice can also reflect the UV (Ultra Violet) rays. Did you know that deserts aren't always hot, so are even below freezing. I would like to live in the tropical area because it gets rain fall, is very humid and has a lot of unusual fruit like coco beans, Witch make Chocolate.
