Billy Bones

Billy is the Boatswain aboard the Lunar Storm. He has a pet gull called George which he adopted a year before the bird sadly died. So, Billy scraped the skin off the carcass with his teeth and kept the bones. A few months later he joined The Scourge as Boatswain aboard Madboots Marly's ship Das Boot. During a resupply stop at an uninhabited island, Madboots left Billy behind by accident and he was marooned. While he was stranded, Billy was fatally mauled by a pack of wolves.

Some of the powerful necromantic magic aboard Das Boot must have seeped into his body, as by the time Mercurius Stark on the Lunar Storm reached the island to retrieve him, both Billy and George had risen as Undead. George had also gained the power of speech, but in the tongue of Daemons. George only converses with Billy, and what the undead bird tells him, Billy won't say...
