'''Charles Van​e''' (c.1680 – 29 March 1721) was an [[United Kingdom|English]] pirate captain who sailed the [[Caribbean|West Indies]] from 1716 until 1719.


He was a friend and fellow pirate companion of Edward Kenway. When in pursuit of a ship of the Royal African Company, in order to obtain the location of Bartholomew Roberts, The Ranger, Vane's Brig was scuttled and his men fled to the Jackdaw and defeated the slaver ship. Jack Rackham led a mutiny against the two and the two were stranded on the destroyed Ranger which eventually ran ashore on Isla Providencia, where Charles went insane. Vane even went as far as to shoot at Edward as he chased him through the jungle. This forced Edward to brutally beat him and leave him stranded on the island. It is revealed that he survived and was taken by another ship after Edward managed to leave, where he was transported to Jamaica, where he was eventually imprisoned in Port Royal and executed in 1721.
After arriving in [[Nassau]] in 1717, where he and [[Jack Rackham]] informed [[Edward Kenway]] of a large prize in a nearby fort, Vane became a leading member of Nassau's community. He was also present when [[Woodes Rogers]] arrived in Nassau to offer all pirates there the King's pardon, allowing them to be absolved of their crimes. Contrary to [[Benjamin Hornigold]], Vane was not keen on the idea of taking the pardon, and he worked with Kenway to orchestrate an escape from Nassau.

Afterwards, Jack Rackham commandeered the Jackdaw, leaving Edward and Vane marooned on [[Isla Providencia]]. Due to Vane's increasingly deadly antics, Edward left him out there when he saw a chance to escape. He was later found by British soldiers and taken to [[Port Royal]], where he was imprisoned. He was executed in 1721.

Charles Van​e (c.1680 – 29 March 1721) was an English pirate captain who sailed the West Indies from 1716 until 1719.

After arriving in Nassau in 1717, where he and Jack Rackham informed Edward Kenway of a large prize in a nearby fort, Vane became a leading member of Nassau's community. He was also present when Woodes Rogers arrived in Nassau to offer all pirates there the King's pardon, allowing them to be absolved of their crimes. Contrary to Benjamin Hornigold, Vane was not keen on the idea of taking the pardon, and he worked with Kenway to orchestrate an escape from Nassau.

When Edward Thatch announced his retirement, Vane tried to talk him out of it, but failed in his attempt. Edward met with him after Thatch's death, and Vane decided to help him find the Observatory. They found the Royal African Pearl, a slave ship belonging to the Royal African Company, hoping to find information on the Sage Bartholomew Roberts, but Vane's ship was scuttled.

Afterwards, Jack Rackham commandeered the Jackdaw, leaving Edward and Vane marooned on Isla Providencia. Due to Vane's increasingly deadly antics, Edward left him out there when he saw a chance to escape. He was later found by British soldiers and taken to Port Royal, where he was imprisoned. He was executed in 1721.
