History

Notorious Crew

Wulf (deceased). The Bloody Head was the most notorious First Mate aboard the ship. He would cut his head before battle allowing the blood to drip over his face. A fierce combatant he was first in line to stamp out any insurrection or mutiny aboard his ship. Damn all the gods - his loyalty was to his captain.
