Flask
Picture



Flask is the third mate aboard the Pequod. His nick-name is "Kings Post" because his short and square stature resembles that of a wooden pole on the ship. He has deep interest in whaling and see's the creatures as nothing more than beings to be hunted. He refers to the beasts as "magnified mice" which exemplifies his pugnacious mindset.
