While falling Kratos manages to grab onto a man who is hanging on to a piece of floating land. This man turns out to be the Ship Captain. Kratos stabs through the Ship Captain with one of his blades to give himself leverage to climb up the Ship Captain's body onto the floating land.
The Ship Captain realizes it is Kratos just before being kicked into the red waters far below. One of the souls he summons is the Ship Captain, who does not fight Kratos and instead cowers until the player kills him. He held my life in his hand, and still he let go.
I may have been just a mere boat captain, but he treated me as if I was nothing! He is to blame for my torment here! I hope he suffers in hades as I have.
A re-appraisal by the British government, instigated informally in and published in by the Marine Accident Investigation Branch MAIB , further implicated the consequences of Lord's inaction.

Damn that Ghost of Sparta! Now they were swamped with outgoing messages that had piled up during the day. Phillips was exhausted after such a long day.
Evans listened in for a while longer as Phillips sent routine traffic through the Cape Race relaying station before finally turning in for bed after a very long day at around Over the course of the night, officers and seamen on the deck of Californian witnessed eight white rockets fired into the air over a strange ship off in the distance. Fatigued after 17 hours on duty, Captain Stanley Lord was awakened twice during the night, and told about the rockets to which he replied that they may be "company rockets", to help ships identify themselves to liners of the same company.
Meanwhile, on the Titanic , for an hour after the collision, no other ships were noticed until the lights of a ship were seen in the distance. Fourth Officer Boxhall and Quartermaster Rowe tried in vain to contact the strange ship by Morse lamp. Nobody on the deck of the Californian saw these signals; however, they had also tried to signal the mystery ship, but were unable to get a response.
Authors Tim Maltin and Eloise Aston attribute Captain Lord's belief that the nearby ship was not the Titanic to visual distortions caused by cold-water mirages. Throughout the night, no one on board the Californian attempted to wake their wireless operator, and ask him to contact the ship to ask why they were firing rockets and trying to signal them, until 5: When she had slipped below the water, the sudden disappearance of lights was interpreted by the Californian crew to mean that she had simply steamed away.
On the morning of 15 April , Captain Lord was notified by the Frankfurt that the Titanic had gone down early that morning.
So, then, I gave him instructions to let the Titanic know. I said, "This is not the Titanic ; there is no doubt about it. We could see everything on her quite distinctly, see her lights.
We signaled her, at half past 11, with the Morse lamp. She did not take the slightest notice of it. That was between half past 11 and 20 minutes to We signaled her again at 10 minutes past 12, half past 12, a quarter to 1 o'clock. We have a very powerful Morse lamp. I suppose you can see that about 10 miles, and she was about 4 miles off, and she did not take the slightest notice of it.
When the second officer came on the bridge, at 12 o'clock, or 10 minutes past 12, I told him to watch that steamer, which was stopped, and I pointed out the ice to him; told him we were surrounded by ice; to watch the steamer that she did not get any closer to her. At 20 minutes to 1 I whistled up the speaking tube and asked him if she was getting any nearer. He said, "No; she is not taking any notice of us. So, he put the whistle back, and, apparently, he was calling. I could hear him ticking over my head.
Then l went to sleep. While Lord was never tried or convicted of any offence, he was still viewed publicly as a pariah after the Titanic disaster.
His attempts to fight for his exoneration gained him nothing, and the events of the night of 14—15 April would haunt him for the rest of his life. Lord was dismissed by the Leyland Line in August So far as any negligence of the S. Californian' s officers and crew was concerned, the conclusions of both the American and British inquiries seemed to disapprove of Lord's actions but stopped short of recommending charges. While both inquiries censured Lord, they did not make any recommendations for an official investigation to ascertain if he was guilty of offences under the Merchant Shipping Acts.
Lord was not allowed to be represented at either the U.
In February , with help from a Leyland director who believed he had been unfairly treated, Lord was hired by the Nitrate Producers Steamship Co. The association's general secretary, Mr. Leslie Harrison, took up the case for him and petitioned the Board of Trade on his behalf for a re-examination of the facts, but there had been no finding by the time of Lord's death in In , largely because Lord had offered no new evidence, his petition was rejected, but in the same year Peter Padfield 's book The Titanic and the Californian was published, defending Lord's reputation, with a preface by his son Stanley Tutton Lord.
In at 80 years old Stanley Lord's wife passed away it took a devastating loss to him, and his health. Stanley Lord, now 81 years old, never saw the film, but he read the Liverpool Echo newspaper reviews of the film. Stanley Lord was very disappointed, and it brought back memories of the Titanic tragedy, and was upset over his negative portrayal by the actor Russell Napier , which depicted him as a captain that had stopped his ship for the night and who did not render any assistance to the foundering Titanic.
An artifact called Boat Captain's Idol is present in the game, although the Captain himself is not. It is a statue of Poseidon the Captain had to protect him in the. In this God of War guide, we'll show you how to find the Boat Captain's Key map and buried treasure. Where to find the Boat Captain's Key.
Stanley Lord was sleeping in the chart room with his uniform on at the time of the disaster. In the film he was in his warm cabin in his pyjamas in bed asleep when Titanic was sinking. Stanley Lord's son Stanley Tutton Lord saw the film, and was upset how his father was treated after the Titanic tragedy. In Stanley Tutton helped fight to get his father's name cleared from the records of the Titanic disaster. He continued his attempts after his father's death in , but never succeeded until his death in The Californian as the nearest ship was not mentioned.
The discovery in of the remains of the Titanic on the sea bed made it clear that the S. At both of the inquiries, there had been some conflict about the true position of the ship when it sank. The conclusions of the inquiries discounted the evidence of uncertainty about the position of the Titanic. At the time, some assumed that the position which Lord had given for his ship was incorrect and that he was actually much closer to the Titanic than he claimed to be.
While the entries in the Californian' s scrap log used for recording information before it was written up officially in the ship's logbook referring to the night in question had been removed, sometimes seen as overwhelming proof that Lord deliberately destroyed evidence in order to cover his crime of ignoring a distress call, destroying the scrap log records was actually normal company practice. A re-appraisal by the British government, instigated informally in and published in by the Marine Accident Investigation Branch MAIB , further implicated the consequences of Lord's inaction.
Among its conclusions were that although the Californian was probably out of visual sight, the Titanic 's rockets had been sighted by the Californian' s crew. Another conclusion stated that it was unrealistic to assume that Lord could have rushed towards the signals, and that with the Titanic reporting an incorrect position, the Californian would have arrived at about the same time as the Carpathia and fulfilled a similar role — rescuing those who had escaped.
