Admiral Elapinae has dedicated the majority of his life to the unpredictable and often perilous life at sea. His journey began at the tender age of 12 when he, yearning for freedom and adventure, ran away from his family home. He found himself on a tuna fishing boat, where he started as a deckhand, quickly learning the ropes of maritime life. His early years were marked by long hours and hard labor, but he embraced the challenges, developing a deep respect for the ocean and its many secrets.
By the time he turned 17, driven by a desire for something greater, Elapinae resorted to forging his birth certificate in a desperate bid to join the US Navy. With a heart full of ambition, he was accepted and soon found himself deployed overseas, serving on various missions that tested his mettle and honed his skills. However, the thrill of service was cut short when authorities discovered the truth behind his fraudulent enlistment. The revelation led to his immediate recall back to the United States, where he faced a swift discharge under "Other Than Honorable" conditions.
Suddenly thrust into civilian life, Elapinae found himself adrift, unemployed, and staring into an uncertain future. Just when all hope seemed lost, a shadowy organization known as Cobra crossed his path. Recognizing his talents and experience, they offered him a chance to rise from the ashes of his military career. Elapinae quickly ascended the ranks within Cobra, showcasing his strategic prowess and leadership skills. He started as an EEL, mastering the covert operational tactics, and progressed to the role of Lamprey, where he managed logistical and tactical innovations.
His relentless drive and commitment eventually led to a commission as a high-ranking officer. Now, Admiral Elapinae commands Cobra's most formidable instrument of warfare, the Venomous Sea Serpent, a state-of-the-art vessel that embodies the culmination of his experiences and ambitions. Under his leadership, this deadly weapon has become a symbol of fear and power, striking terror into the hearts of foes across the seas.
