Patch is not his real name - that may never be known for Patch
doesn't speak much, he hides many secrets. Preferring to be
away from the other children, Patch spends most of his time
on the parapet of the castle or in the graveyard playing lonely
melodies on his pipe.
From
the sight of his long white hair no one would believe Patch is
only 15 years old. In fact he was on the verge of leaving the
orphan asylum for good when the 'change' happened and he became
imprisoned along with the other children. This only served to
make him more unhappy and withdrawn.
Patch
the piper pirate boy is around 7 inches (17cm) tall. Fully jointed,
grunged, wounded and singed. He wears a velvet shirt and leather
cape. He has a removable patch over one eye socket and plays a
pipe. His history is dramatic.
It's
obvious Patch met with some sort of horrible accident to cause
him so much injury - losing an eye and most of one leg, not to
mention the deterioration all the children are suffering like
his left arm wasting away. All I can disclose at this time, regarding
the 'accident' is it had to do with a sinking ship and sharks,
prior to coming to the asylum, which is how he earned his his
nickname, Patch the Pirate Piper.

There
is much more to Patch's story, as with all the children and
will come in time.
