Mel the Drunkard

Background:
Mel is a seasoned seaman who has taken on the role of Quarter Master under captain James Mavrick having actually served under the previous captain for an unknown amount of time before Mavrick took on the role seven years ago. He is in his early sixties with unruly brown-grey hair and beard. One of his eyes has been badly gouged and is white and unusable today though the exact circumstances of how he got the wound change in the telling. Bears a striking resemblance to a series of other legendary drunk heroes... hmm.

Developments and Revelations:

 * It seems that Mel was once a war hero of the Britannian Navy. He and his entire crew went missing on a scouting mission in the Jinn Seas.  Falloway is convinced that the only way Mel could still be alive and never have reported back in is if he sold out his crew and reconnaissance to the Jinn.  He has thus refused to answer any questions on the subject.
