| - Sandra Tew was born in Jamaica, the daughter of a Voodoo priestess and a British sailor. She never knew her father, but all her mother ever said of him was that he was “a scoundrel”. At a very early age, Sandra began having visions and dreams that scared her. Sandra’s mother tried to teach her the mystical ways of Voodoo, but her powers were so raw and strong, she could not control them. As a teenager, Sandra left home to make her own way. She went to Port Royal and found work in the Rowdy Rooster as a cook. But at night, away from prying eyes, Sandra practiced her voodoo. Sandra knew her powers were strong but didn’t realize their potential until she found herself sailing with Captain Jack Sparrow as a cook for the Black Pearl. They happened upon a Spanish Treasure ship, laden with gold, returning to Spain. Jack gave the order to attack. As with all Pirate attacks, everyone from the cabin boy to the cook was required to fight. Sandra was drawn into the fray and used her Voodoo Staff to save Sparrow’s handsome neck. The force of her Voodoo Staff was so powerful that it sunk the Spanish ship and dazed half of Sparrow’s crew! Sandra’s powers so frightened Jack and his crew they dropped her on the nearest island – Cuba. There she became an apprentice to Tia Dalma and eventually learned to control her amazing powers.
