Captain Lucky - Hunter of the Unliving

Name: Captain Archibald Ignatius Calvin Peddycord (Insists on being called ‘Lucky’.)

Role in the Brigade: Captain (much to the crew’s chagrin), instigator of celebrations and resident expert on the unliving.

Before the Brigade: Lucky had a large, loving family and though they were poor East-enders they were content; all except Lucky, who was bored. At 17, he found his lucky hat and began hunting monsters. Lucky’s early career consisted of combating the unliving for the London Office of Unliving Defense (L.O.U.D.). For 14 years, he was a bounty hunter specializing in the animate dead. He gained quite a name for himself, especially in the Irish and Chinese slums in Limehouse where he has been known to accept a bottle of whiskey and a hearty meal as payment for his services.

Favoured weapons: Dual 1877 Colt Single Action Army Revolver (The Peacemaker), Aethertech Industries Omicron Wavelength Projecticator

Vices: His philosophy is everything in moderation, especially moderation.

Interesting fact: Lucky carries many lucky items such as a horseshoe, a bronzed four-leaf clover, a piece of wood (for knocking), salt (for throwing over his shoulder), a rosary or two and of course, his lucky hat. His hat is a bit worse for the wear, but he refuses to replace it and even sleeps while clutching it. Lucky abhors the idea of carrying a rabbit’s foot: he has seen too many dead things animate.
