Dread Lord Grim

BACKSTORY
Once calling himself Geralt the Grim in life, he was the leader of a small band of pirates known as ‘The Dead Men’. He was a ruthless and well known captain for many years, but as with many pirate captains, he eventually fell victim to a mutiny led by his First Mate, Nathan’el, and was slain and cast overboard his own ship. Consigned to the depths though he was, his spirit would not be so easily dispersed, and the strength of his vengefulness drew him to Davy Jones’ Locker. He gladly signed a contract with the Lord of the Deep, trading his humanity for the power to chase his mutinous crew to the ends of the earth, and of their lives. Making his tireless way to the Isle at Jones’ direction, he found like-minded fellows among the pirates, and particularly amongst the Nightwatch, with whose leader he fell into an easy friendship. After the departure of Nuke Squid, he was an easy choice to take up the heavy mantle, and currently leads his restless crew with distinction and valor, ever dreaming of taking them across the seas to hunt down and exact revenge on Nathan’el and his co-conspirators. Since then however, he's risen up in rank, being one of those who ended up in the council of bones after the great October shuffle after being chosen for the people's lord, and has given his role as captain of the watch away to a worthy successor with an iron grip who himself killed - Dread captain Jane Barnaby.

APPEARANCE AND GEAR

 * Grim appears as an old but well-preserved skeleton, due to all the moisture and salt of his nightly rest. Seaweed can be seen hanging from some ribs. He wears an old black overcoat and pirate hat atop his bones, slightly greenish from being permanently soaked, with old barnacles and sea stars attached in random places.
 * For weaponry, he wields an old cutlass that he can often be caught scraping of rust. Due to his meticulous care, it remains impossibly sharp, and has some barbed chunks to cause heavier bleeding. In addition, he also brandishes a magical flintlock that he got from a raid when he was still alive. Seemingly made just for him (others find it near impossible to operate themselves), there does not appear to be a limit on what he can load into it. When he runs dry on shot, he has been witnessed ripping splinters out of his ship, the buttons from his coat, and even his own smaller bones, and cramming them into the muzzle of the gun, firing them as a pistol shot or a blunderbuss burst as he sees fit.

PERSONALITY AND ABILITIES

 * In life, Geralt valued loyalty and camaraderie as the pinnacles of virtue. As Grim, his betrayal has reinforced these ideals, while adding in a healthy portion of nihilism and sarcastic humor due to his immortal nature. This makes him invaluable to his friends - and a nightmare to any who do not respect a code of brotherhood.
 * As noted above, he can freely detach and reattach bones, even if they are not part of his original skeleton. This makes him essentially immortal, and even if his whole body is destroyed, he is reborn in a new skeleton at the bottom of the ocean, though the tithe he owes Jones grows every time.
 * Due to his complete lack of flesh and organs, he does not require sustenance of any kind beyond his communion with The Deep each night. However, he maintains a peculiar desire for dairy products nonetheless. How he consumes them is a mystery unknown to all but himself.
