Captain "Gorie" Govert Van Horn (1664)

Gorie was the Guild Master of the London Musicians and Entertainers Guild before he was blinded, killed, turned and let loose by Simon Radcliff to be hunted down by the local law enforcement as the "Dreaded Mad Killer of London."

Gorie built "Black's House of Cheer" which promptly burnt down on opening night and later reopened it as "The Rose"

Gorie's other enterprises included the charitable "Orphan Childrens' Blood Bank" and the "Reformed Army of Catholic Priests: All Named O'Brian." He has a secret collection of Vampire eyeballs which he sucks on in his spare time.

Gorie became Simon's childe, then Emma's. After the sad demise of both masters, Gorie became the Voice and Seneschal of the Lady Rose, Tyrant of the British Isles.

After a successful diplomatic trip to Paris, Gorie was cast out of Lady Rose's domain and sent to the New World -- in shackles and a box.

He immediately started a new enterprise as the new Captain of "The Death Cruise" -- featuring all you can eat buffets, live ship board entertainment, and exotic ports of call.
