Corkes the Captain
Basic information:
	Class:	Captain
	Gender:	Male
	Race:	Human
Not many wish to get into Corkes' enemy list. This quick-tempered pirate is one of the most experienced and cruel sea dogs. Many merchants know that it is better to submit the goods willingly than to start a suicidal battle with him. He is easily distinguishable by the eye patch that he never takes off.

User commentary

Corkes is basically a Cove version of the Barbarian Crag Hack. There are two differences: Corkes starts with pathfinding, which is useful for crossing rough terrain, and his primary skill distribution is more balanced than Crag Hack. In battle, Crag Hack is very might oriented whilst Corkes has better synergy with spells, similar to Gundula. Pathfinding is somewhat lackluster for a Cove hero, however, as swamp is your native terrain anyway (so the expert bonus is wasted), and should you obtain the Grail it becomes practically useless. It's still helpful if you recruit non-Cove creatures in worthwhile amounts. Corkes has a high starting offense stat, which is great for Ayssids with their double attack.
