Lawrence Higby

Lawrence Higby is the harbormaster and corrupt mayor of Longstrand on Dreadman's Isle. He is also the head of the Mad Devil Syndicate, a crime ring that works out of the small town. Most of the twenty or so thieves in the syndicate's upper levels suspect as much, but can't prove it. Only their nominal ringleader, Marcella Rimas, knows the truth for sure and can prove it. What Rimas doesn't know is that the Dreadman's Guild are in on the ring.
In addition to running the syndicate, Higby finances the operations of the Longstrand Shipyard, which manufactures ships for private individuals (money up front) as well as the Guild. Some of these "new" ships are actually stolen Attamat Trading Company vessels, given a new coat of paint and a brand new name.
