Pirate Lord Ankers

Pirate Lord Ankers is the leader of the Taki Squall. He was found in the Calmport Mine and claimed that he had been taken prisoner by the burrow elves there. He had been using the mine's worker quarters to house his crew, paying rent to the Cobble sons when the elves and their enslaved beasts emerged from unexplored caverns deep beneath the mines. He wore a fine silk coat, scimitar and pistol with powderhorn.

It was learned that he had become sick and had to take shore leave for an extended time, whereupon he took residence in the mine. His crew eventually mutinied with his first mate Medelon in command.

When encountered for the second time, he attempted to convince Zaijin and Frug to help him kill Medelon and the mutinous crew. He became agitated when the tied and gagged bodies of missing farmer father and daughter were found. Growing snake like fangs, he grabbed and bit Zaijin, draining his blood.
