Wink Who was El Patron?

I recently sent an email to Disney's Member Services, and they kindly sent me a response on who he was and a little about his history. Enjoy.

Umberto Diaz, also known as El Patron, was the son of a wealthy merchant and adviser to the king of Spain. Using these powerful connection, he financed a lavish expedition to the Caribbean. Like many Spanish Conquistador’s, he set out to find gold and riches, but ultimately he became know for his weapons.

When he had spent even the large sum supplied to him by his father and the king he used his artfully crafted weapons as collateral to borrow money from many of the shop keepers on Padres Del Fuego. When he left without repaying this debt the legend of these weapons grew, until both Jolly Roger and Lord Beckett thirsted to harness their power. Jolly Roger and Lord Beckett's men fought a bloody battle over the weapons when they were discovered on Raven's Cove, and now that they have returned, Pirates like you can recover El Patron's Lost Weapons from enemies all around the Caribbean.

Some day Pirates hope to see Raven's Cove with their own eyes, and even repair the damage done by this epic battle, but anyone who searches for the island does so at a great risk. Some believe that it takes a strong voodoo priestess to even find its fog shrouded location, but all agree that it is a treacherous journey.

I hope you enjoyed this, and by the way for people that want to know I did ask them if El Patron is Jolly Roger and he is not. xD
