Long John Silverbones: Difference between revisions

}}

'''Long John Silverbones''' is the captain of the [[The Thunderous Plunderers|Thunderous Plunderers]] and the antagonist of {{DQTreasures}}.

The captain is a tall skeleton of not quite human proportion, with small beads of red floating in the back recesses of his eye sockets and a similar gem being situated in his forehead. All of Silverbones attire is black, gold, and purple save for his belts: he wears a captain's coat with upwards-curving pauldrons lined with hanging trim below, topped with rows of spikes, and is in tatters at the ends. He protects his rib cage with a cuirass that has three spikes near the collar bone and covers his skull with an oversized tricorn.

Gustav reveals in the post-game that his former captain has been captured and taken to the Sylphanian stockade on [[the Maneland]], where he sits imprisoned in an iron cage. Silverbones refuses to speak when addressed by the player. Gustav has taken up the responsibility of leading the Thunderous Plunderers himself, avowing to set the crew straight as proper treasure hunters instead, and asks for the assistance of the children to mend bridges between the two organizations. This is in fact a clever, ruse, with Gustav and several Plunderers storming the stockade to free their captain the moment their trap is sprung. Silverbones can then be fought in a rematch on La Isla DSorada.
