Death

The Boat Man, otherwise known as Death, is a secondary character in MediEvil and MediEvil: Resurrection. He ferries lost souls on their final journey to the Land of the Dead. Amid the stormy gloom over the Pools of the Ancient Dead, Sir Dan will find the boatman waiting to escort eight lost valiants to their final resting place from the accursed swamps. As his boat is the only available means of passage into Mellowmede and the Crystal Caves, The Boatman brokers a deal with Sir Dan for the lost souls as fare. He is weary and sardonic, yet retains an air of engaging charisma and elegant charm. If he ever had any real enthusiasm for his job, it's been long gone. However, he has two key redeeming features that shine through his aura of melancholy resignation: His comprehensive knowledge of Gallowmere, and a sneaking admiration (almost paternal regard) for the undead knight Sir Daniel Fortesque, whom he sees as his only hope of gaining some peace from massively increased workload.
