Bio: Doctor Livesay has been stationed on Cragg Hollow for over thirty years. He discovered the parasitic crustaceans at some point in that time and spent most of his days modifying the creatures into masks that could be placed on people''s faces to control them. When the logbook brought the danger of more attention to Cragg Hollow, he decided to enact a plan to escape the island, forcing masks on his other officers before attempting to steal a ship. His plans were foiled when he was killed by ''Thorn Queen'' Leah and an inky wolf.
