Captain Marrow

Marine Captain Marrow, formerly known as Arthur Dogtooth, is the brother of Rear Admiral Jefferson and the son of Cranstin, a fisherman from Miller Island. He changed his name after eating the Hone-Hone no Mi.

First mentioned in Episode 2: The Yogi Pooh and defeated in Episode 8: The Throne Room Battle by the Devil's Luck Pirates, Captain Marrow served as one of the major antagonists of the first saga. He acted as the main villain together with the slave trader and pirate captain Eustass Valve.

Marrow is locally famous for his brutality and strength, and claimed to have murdered "hundreds of pirates."

Appearance
Captain Marrow was described as a "big guy", since he took up four spaces on the game board. This shows how his intimidating nature is enhanced by his large stoic figure. Donning a cow skull and a grizzled beard, along with a fine dark suit, Captain Marrow's terrifying reputation is very accurate. Further descriptions added on his deep sunken eyes, rectangular head, wide nose, and a comical cow tag on his left ear. Furthermore, thanks to his active milk drinking he has "perfect white teeth."

Personality
Marrow is a stern man who doesn't seem to care about his subordinates, but does care about his family as he truly hated William for killing his father. He also seems to love killing pirates, but did seem to regret killing Viridian in a letter to Cranstin.

Overview
He is primarily a melee fighter with his several Bone based attacks. However he does have a few ranged moves such as his Bone Gun and Bone Explosion. Marrow has had this Fruit for over a decade after he stole it from pirates.

He drinks a carton of milk each turn in order to gain bonus effects thanks to his Devil Fruit.

Cranstin
Cranstin was Marrow's father. It can be assumed that the two were on good terms with each other, as Marrow was enraged by the news of his father death.

Trevor
Marine Commodore Trevor D. Chapston was Marrow's superior officer prior to the latter's death. They seemed to have known each other quite well. However, Marrow seems to have disliked Trevor, describing him as annoying. However, he was also deeply afraid of Trevor, due to the incredible power gap between them.

William
Hates William for killing his father.

Verona
Marrow hates Verona for being the first member of the Devil's Luck Pirates to injure him. The pirate sniper also serves as a living reminder of his own past actions.

Captain Viridian
They seemed to be close friends, but apparently their relationship soured. He played a prominent a role in Viridian's murder.

Jefferson
Rear Admiral Jefferson is Marrow's brother who also left their father. The two haven't spoken in many years.

History
Early on in his career as a Marine, he helped kill Verona's father, as revealed in Episode 8. He was also the man who burned down their house and gave Verona his now hidden burn scars across his mouth in the process. 10 years before the present story, Marrow raided a pirate ship and ate the Hone Hone no Mi. Marrow's murdering of Verona's father would poetically be avenged when William "mercy killed" Marrow's father in Episode 2.

Trivia
