The Bystander is a pirate of Nassau who watches a speech given by a man claiming to be a member of Benjamin Hornigold's crew. 

Biography[]

Season Two[]

The Bystander watches a fellow pirate talk about how he survived the Seizure of Fort Nassau by Charles Vane. He says that Vane and his men swarmed through the gate like locusts, hacking his crewmates to pieces. The man swears to Jesus Christ that it wasn’t their screams that haunt him the most, but the laughter of Vane’s men

The Bystander says to John Silver that he thought no one from Hornigold's crew had survived the raid, and Silver says that one must have gotten away (in truth he paid an actor). Silver then asks him what he thinks of the feud between Captains Flint and Vane.
