Robin
John Longstride, known as 'John Long' to his shipmates, is a pirate and
natural born leader of a group of cutthroat treasure hunters. He has a very
persuasive way with his words, and is not shy of knocking a few heads
together to resolve any differences between the crew. John Long likes to
cook meals for the crew, and he is a fair hand at it.
He
is tall and broad, with a fast gait, that attests his name. He has rugged
features, dark hair, and a pet parrot, named Captain
Flint, after Robert
Louis Stevenson's famous novel. If he'd had a wooden leg, he would have
been a ringer for Long John Silver. Some of his mates think he must be
related, and sometimes cuss him as 'Silver,' behind his back, because of his
love of the precious metal and his silvery tongue.
John
Long has a pet parrot, named Captain
Flint, after Long John Silver's parrot
in Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure
Island.
'Longstride'
has been thinking of Blackbeard's
buried treasure for many a year. When
his snitch, William Gray, tells him about the unfolding events in the
Caribbean, he is convinced they are onto something big.
As
with William Gray, John Long is unaware of the extraordinary skills of John
Storm or his ship, the Elizabeth
Swann, because that information was classified by President Lincoln
Truman, for his eyes only.
