Mystery Character

He lives his life on the sea, along with his love which he named after a shiny, white round jewel. People are always after him because he knows the sea more than anybody else, with the help of his crafty compass. This unique compass that he holds onto as if it were sacred, takes him to wherever he desires.
He acts and speaks as if he was unintelligent, but don’t let him fool you, he can be very witty and deceitful. He is known for his numerous great escapes from the British soldiers and other enemies of the sea.
He walks in a swaying manner as if his body was malfunctioning, probably because he’s always drunk. Many times people can’t understand him because he speaks of fast-paced gibberish. His teeth are stained and chipped as if he hasn’t brushed them in years. He accessorizes his frizzy unwashed dreads with colorful beads and a piece antique jewelry that dangles. He may be unappealing, but for some reason he still attracts the ladies.
If you’re hanging out with him you’re not only in for trouble, you're also in for quite an adventure.
