Mr. Grins

Mr. Grins, known informally simply as 'Grins' to his companions, was an entity that existed towards the end of the Fourth Age and served onboard the Mozart Kraft under the leadership of Captain Jack Rinceweed. Mr Grins always wore a suit, was averagely sized and apparently of average body weight. His most notable feature was upon his bald head- dark rings of tattoos around his eyes and the heavily detailed tattoo of skeletal teeth over his lips that gave him the appearance of a skeleton and also gained him the name 'Grins.' Though originally carrying around a ratpole with the entrapped Alfaniel, Grins later on decided to simply carry around a pimp-cane with a silver-skeletal head.

Who or what Grins is is a mystery. He can seemingly shrug off the most devastating wounds, returning out of nowhere healed. He has strength and skill that far outshines most humans, and shows no emotion nor loyalty except to his master. Grins' master is whomever murdered the last. When posed with the question of what would happen if a master of his died of natural causes, Grins sneakily remarked that he has always made sure that this never happens. Which may mean that the psycho hires killers to end the life of his current master before they die naturally.

When first introduced in the Jack Rinceweed series, Grins was under the leadership of The Winterman. However, after the Winterman's death at the hands of the Mozart Kraft's cannon, Grins' allegiance changed to the Mozart Kraft, though due to its love of its captain, Grins is indirectly under the leadership of Jack Rinceweed and demonstrated such allegiances in the overthrow of Captain Swain.

Grins witnessed the majority of Jack Rinceweed's adventures whilst under the service of the Mozart Kraft, taking the role of bosun and then master carpenter. Grins was one of the few members of the Mozart Kraft's crew to return from the island of Sul-Tahn, after which Jack Rinceweed abandoned his career of pirateering. The Mozart Kraft remained docked at Blackbeard Port for numerous years, tended to singlehandedly by Grins so that it would be in working order when called upon again.

When it was called upon again in the last year of the Fourth Age in order to rescue one of Captain Rinceweed's friends from The Rock prison, Grins had made sure that the Mozart Kraft was sea-fit beforehand. However, during this bold move the Mozart Kraft was destroyed, sinking into the ocean's depths. Grins, as always, survived this, as well as the Mozart Kraft- muscles and other parasites on the bottom of the ship had sapped much of its magical energies and manifested as a part of the being itself. Grins was then given the task of informing Captain Rinceweed that his lover was still alive, and oversaw the construction of the Iron Coyote II.

Grins served on the Iron Coyote II for many years as well, far into the Second God Wars.
