Captain

The Captain of Sangrive's Police Department is a side character that features in a couple of titles in the Elsaverse saga. He's detectives Nathanial Blake's and Michelle Won's immediate boss and his name has never been disclosed. He hasn't any unnatural skill and seems troubled by these powers' existence.

Character Overview
The Captain is introduced as a cliched character, with his grumpy and blunt attitude, his scowled face, and his ironic remarks toward his subordinates, especially Detective Blake, whom he has been working with for many years. He seems a bit uncomfortable in his firsts interactions with Detective Won as if he wasn't sure about how to treat this young female officer; however, he quickly realizes her worth and even shows his most caring side when she seems troubled due to the potential political implications of a certain case. Due to his position, the Captain is under big pressure from politicians and seemed clearly upset by Anne Kruin's Mayoral campaign, as she was focusing on the police's incompetence.

However, his main worry these days is the existence of people in Sangrive with some unnatural skills. The Captain read the official reports detectives Blake and Won wrote about the arrest of the serial killer Brandon Henderson, in which they mentioned that Brandon was able to dissolve himself in thin air to dodge bullets and make knives vanish to get them from a distance. Then, the two detectives wrote a second version of those reports without mentioning those strange events, now stating that, initially, they were too stressed and just misread the situation. Knowing Blake for so long, and getting the same professional vibes from Won, the Captain guesses that their second reports are a result of some kind of pressure from Internal Affairs and the first ones were the closest to what actually happened, despite their outlandish claims about Brandon's skills. Even though he's trying to convince himself that those powers don't exist, facts seem to indicate they do and so he decides to task Blake and Won with every crazy case that doesn't make any natural sense, reporting directly to him; he'll then deal with Internal Affairs knowing all the info. That's why, when someone starts to act as a vigilante, knocking gang bangers out and leaving them tied up after apparently dealing with them totally unarmed, he and Lara summon Blake and Won to his office to set a course of action that could prevent this vigilante's possible powers to ever made it to the general public. In that meeting, the Captain shows once again that he cares about his officers, energetically asking Lara to stop when she makes some hurtful remarks about their private life.
