[edit] Biography
He was once a loyal servant of the king, though years of exposure to maritime riffraff left him corrupt. He would often accept bribes to supplement his meagre government salary, allowing him to afford fine clothes. He was commonly seen sporting a wig, spectacles and tricorne hat.[1]
The Harbormaster accosted Captain Jack Sparrow when he arrived in Port Royal aboard the sinking Jolly Mon. Jack offered him three shillings to ensure his name did not appear on the Harbormaster's ledger. The Harbormaster accepted this bribe, though did not notice Jack stealing his purse as the pirate swaggered away.[2]
