History
Past
Captain Plunder met Nutmeg when she was still a young girl and formed an impression of her as being sweet and innocent. However, she grew up to become a fierce fighter; Zorabel would state that Nutmeg frequently caused 'bother', for example, by brawling in taverns like The Pink Parrot in Scourge Bay.[1]
The Akotek Treasure
As part of Zorabel's plan to steal the Akotek Treasure, she insisted that Nutmeg, along with her sisters, accompanied Captain Plunder. Plunder protested against the idea though, claiming having women on a ship was bad luck. The girls joined Plunder's crew regardless, with their mother coming along.[2]
After arriving at the island where the treasure was, Plunder had the curse of the tomb placed on himself by accident. Nutmeg and her family then took the treasure back to their ship, unaffected by the curse. They then returned to Scourge Bay.[3][4][5][6]
Trivia
- Like how the Spice Maidens are a reference to the Spice Girls, a famous English pop girl group from the 1990s, Nutmeg appears to be loosely modelled after Ginger Spice, Geri Halliwell's Spice Girls stage persona.
