Character Bio

Rolo “Shorty” Cutter was once a crew member of ???. Shorty is quick and nimble tongued with a good heart. During his time as a crewman under Captain Hale he was always able to talk his way out of outright engaging in any piracy or villainy.

Shorty was friendly with Gideon despite the nobles reputation among their former crew. Shorty was the sole crew member who refused to engage in the beating of Gideon.

Shorty witnessed the Black Hood murder the entirety of the crew and Captain Hale and was the only one spared. It’s unclear whether Shorty suspects the true identity of the Black Hood.
