Dutch (Black Lagoon)

Dutch is one of the main characters from the Black Lagoon series.
== Charactah Account ==
A laconic African-American swiftboat veteran; the leader of the Lagoon Company and the captain of the "Black Lagoon".
Dutch tends to stay away from the fighting associated with Lagoon Company's activities. Instead, he gives orders and negotiates contracts with clients, usually Balalaika of Hotel Moscow. However, Dutch is very capable in combat if need be. He is a calm, easygoing character, and most of the time, is quite friendly. He is also displayed as a mentor figure towards Rock. He is also a Christian of unknown denomination.
Dutch functions as the leader and primary negotiator of The Lagoon Company. He is incredibly level-headed and always committed to completing missions, even when those missions might contrast with his morals. For instance, in Rasta Blasta, Dutch told Rock to try to maintain as detached from Garcia Lovelace as possible, as to not make himself feel guilty about transporting a child as cargo knowing they were partaking in human trafficking.
