Konk was a short, fat pirate aboard the Maelstrom and one of Bloth's most trusted lieutenants. Or so he tells himself. Konk isn't especially intelligentintelligent, but for his size he is a vicious and courageous fighter. And for the most part, he is loyal to Bloth and is very mindful of his captain's wrath, as, years before, Bloth had become so angry with Konk he'd thrown him to the Constrictus. Amazingly, Konk survived, although the Constrictus succeeded in biting his leg off. Konk had it replaced with a metal peg leg.
