“And I still believe in the good And I still believe in the light And I wanna feel the sun I wanna free you tonight...” --- “Into The Light”, In This Moment.

H A L   G A T E S  [Quartermaster of the Walrus, briefly captain of the Ranger] : murdered by James Flint for the quest for the Urca of Lima.

M I R A N D A   B A R L O W  [lover and friend of James Flint] : murdered by the henchman of Peter Ashe in an attempt to reconcile with civilization.

M R.  S C O T T  [right-hand man of Richard then of Eleanor Guthrie, quartermaster of the crew of Benjamin Hornigold then of James Flint, king of Maroon Island] :  succumbed to wounds caused by English soldier while trying to help slaves to escape.

C H A R L E S   V A N E  [Captain of the Ranger, then of the Fancy, steward of the fort] : hanged on the orders of Eleanor Guthrie after she joined civilization, he could nevertheless have been saved but chosen to sacrifice himself to push Nassau to rebel against the English.

E D W A R D   T E A C H  [aka Blackbeard, captain of the Revenge, then of the Nassau fleet, one of the founders of the Pirate Republic] : murdered by Woodes Rogers after being tortured.

But I am still shocked they kill Teach now,  after all those posts on official twitter and facebook. I known he must die, but I thought in ep7-9 maybe (because showranners usually kill somebody in those episodes). And now... I disbelieve anything they post on official accout, sorry.

Maybe main problem with Teach from Black Sails as character he has not his own story. His story is story about Vane and Eleanor really, it is much more their story, than Teach`s. When Eleanor says to Rogers about she banished Teach from Nassau, it makes her more powerful person. When we see Vane with Teach it makes Vane more emotional and vulnerable. But what about Teach? Where do his own story except for “guy, who wants to see Vane as his son” and “guy, who was banished from Nassau by Eleanor”.
