Biography

Berkley was a heavy-set fellow with a red face. He was not particularly proper, but spoke freely and rarely wore a coat. Despite these differences, William Laurence immediately took a liking to him. Berkley was a trustworthy fellow and had been given command of a particularly valuable Regal Copper, Maximus. The two of them have a brotherly sort of relationship, in which they enjoy teasing and provoking one another.

He had a very loud, booming voice which was lucky, as he rarely had to use a speaking trumpet when aboard his dragon.

According to Berkley, he was assigned to Maximus's egg almost as soon as it was laid. He waited six years for it to hatch, which is why he was older than most of the new captains.
