Biography
An open and friendly young man as well as a capable officer, Martin was selected by Capt. William Laurence as one of the midwingmen to serve aboard Temeraire.
Martin was wounded in the Valerie engagement as he journeyed to China with Temeraire and his crew in late 1805. He was out of action for a time before returning to duty.
Martin was one of the ten crew members chosen to accompany Temeraire and Laurence to Peking, along with Granby, Keynes, Riggs, Therrows, Hackley, Dunne, Blythe, Willoughby and Digby. (Emily Roland and Peter Dyer also went, on George Staunton's advice. As they were children, they were not counted against the limit of ten set by Prince Yongxing.)
After Laurence's treason, Martin was transfered to Orchestia and met Temeraire's attempts to get him to rejoin his crew with disdain.
Martin is still young and has blonde hair. He does not like his first name.
