Crew Member (Hypnotized)

A faceless member of the yacht's crew whose actions reveal the ship's manipulated state. Carrying an oil lamp, he moves with detached precision through the suffocating hold, his expression eerily blank—an immediate telltale of advanced hypnotic control. The lampshade of light he carries seeps across the creaking timbers, illuminating nothing but confirming Turlough's suspicion that something supernatural courses through the vessel. His single appearance suffices to crystallize the episode's central tension: these are not ordinary sailors but puppets of something far older and more predatory than mere mutiny.
