Fernando Benito de Dios de Santos del Espíritu Santo, Conquistador

Fernando Benito de Dios de Santos del Espíritu Santo, Conquistador (translation: Ferdinand Benedict of God of Saints of the Holy Spirit) is a Spanish Conquistador on his way to and from Spain's colonies (depending on when Kiddo Morgan and his crew meet him). He despises Portugal, seeing it as a bad child that needs punishing for their years of conquering the world and in return, their ships turn around as soon as they hear his voice.

Early Life and Education
Nothing is known of his early life; he has been educated in love and God.

Personality
Fernando is a lover of conquering, all he knows how to do is conquer, including women. In fact, a nickname of his is "not Cantquistador, but something quite similar..." He is also one of the most religious people in the world, and becomes more religious with every "not so Holy thing he commits." He needs his ego stroked constantly.

He is also quite lazy, often having a siesta at inopportune times, but can be easily aroused if "conquering" is in order.

He speaks English with a heavy lisp due to the Spanish language.

Physical Appearance
Cascading black ringlets, with a thin moustache, Ferdinand wears the typical gear of the Conquistadors, even though they are a fading breed with the surge of British dominance, a reason why he hates the British. He is short, but wears shoes that give him the appearance of being tall and also stands on higher decks to force others to look up at him. He loves Mexican and South American women because they are shorter than him.

Fernando and Kiddo Morgan
Kiddo Morgan sees Fernando's potential worth and often humors him by stationing himself below him, or kneeling down for "something or other" to look up at him. Their relationship is more one of convenience and as professionals, both hating the British.

Fernando and François
Both believe that they are the only ally Kiddo Morgan has and neither are allied with one another, but they are civil toward each other. They do talk about their lovers for hours on end, but fight over who has better bread.

Fernando and Portugal
The only country Fernando does not care to conquer is Portugal. "The women have moustaches and the country lives on their former glory of the past." He often berates Portugal, treating them like children and for that reason, when a Portugese ship sees Fernando's it turns aroud immediately. The only thing he does like about Portugal, is that he can feel tall among the Portugese.
