Tobias "Flick" Clement
"Food, glorious food!
We're anxious to try it.
Three banquets a day --
Our favourite diet!
Just picture a great big steak --
Fried, roasted or stewed.
Oh, food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Glorous food."

Fourteen-Navy Ship Boy-Heroic-Hungry-Optimistic

Tobias was born on the mean streets of London fourteen years ago. He lived in a group home, under fed and abused, for ten years. Four years ago, he discovered something wonderful; the Navy fed you! He lied his way through a few tests and found himself a ship's boy aboard a heavy hitting British Navy vessel. He was sea sick at first and could not understand all the lingo and weird shifts and other idiosyncrasies of the sea, but he eventually got a grasp on it.
In four years, he has experienced pirates and French navy men, perilous sea battles, frightening adventures in the dead of the night, death, and he has discovered his own self worth. He has become quite useful to the navy, seeing as he is tiny, but able to do hard labor. He often has to climb to the very top of the main mast and scout for reefs and enemies. He has been shot out and dueled with swords, but has always come out stronger for it.
He is a never ending optimist who's biggest goal is to be a brave commander of the Queen's navy, or maybe a privateer. He really doesn't care so long as he gets fed. He is very self deprecating and is very brave. He never lies and always has a whistle on his lips. He is not afraid of the saltiest pirate and will gladly take them on to defend the Queen and the Navy's honor.
However, when it comes to food, Toby, sometimes called Flick because he's full of energy and flies around like a little bird, is stingy. Sure, he'll share it with you, but only after he's had his fill and he knows when the next's coming. He dreads starvation over anything else. He can be a little reckless, but makes friends easily. He's seen as sort of a pet amongst the sailors. He gets the most pride out of wearing his ship's uniform.
His biggest goal is to one day be the most successful Navy commander/privateer of all time. So long as he lives to see that day...
