History
Sharkjaw was a British Royal Navy captain who, after suffering a humiliating defeat at the hands of the Spanish, was fired from his post. He discovered his powers while trying to steal his ship, Shark's Bite, back and as he was trying to figure out how he would commandeer it, he suddenly felt an surge of power that he used to direct the ship, by himself, out of the harbor and into the ocean. After wandering around for a year, he was discovered by satyrs and taken to Camp Half-Blood.

Name:
Sharkjaw earned his nickname during a quest to kill a giant shark monster that was terrorizing a small South American colony. After killing it by forcing it to get on the shore, the monster disintegrated and left behind its jaw. James took it and used it as the figurehead for Shark's Bite.

Beliefs
He shares the beliefs of the rest of the Candles, belief in progress, deism, rejection of Greek gods, etc.

Weapons and Fighting Style
Sharkjaw prefers to send others to do the dirty work. But when he is forced to fight, he fights with a blunderbuss and a bronze cutlass.
