OTHER THINGS: Is second in command of Surprise. 2nd Lt. Mowett is his best friend since childhood. Has served with Aubrey before under Nelson (Pullings was a midshipman, Aubrey a lieutenant), and originally signed on for this voyage as a volunteer. Is less interested in taking ships as prizes just for the prize itself as he is in taking them to garner a wee bit of recognition, and an eventual commission to captain a ship himself. This, however, is not foremost on his mind-he's rather laid back, even as a workaholic, and is just pleased to be sailing, especially under Aubrey. Is not a "gentleman" officer-not high born at all. Worked very hard to get where he is.
