Archie Boffin

Wether listening and sharing a tale of India with one of the guards in their mess; or giving a comment about the latest Canton trades over dinner with one of the free passengers, Archie almost imediately fell in with those aboard. Never the first to pass comment, sipping from his bag of remedies or smoking a pipe upon deck, Archie’s almost constant pessismistic outlook is born out of experiences, and tells of a life travelling in the service of others before starting his own small enterprise he seeks to expand. When finally voiced his sometimes expletive ridden observation whilst amusing is also pragmatic and given freely and genuinely.

Whilst never at the front of the crowd he is often at the back in a haze of sweet smelling tobacco smoke scratching his dark beard whilst making an observation in a world weary almost tired baritone.
