Bidley is one of the most successful pirates operating near Erathian shores. He is ready to accept any challenge and is able to emerge unscathed from any situation. It seems like he has a rival in every world's corner, but he is always able to escape the trouble. Apart from being an excellent warrior, having artisan skills in both pistol and sabre wielding, he also trains his crew personally.

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

Bidley is basically a Cove's counterpart of Gelu. But he only upgrades the Pirates and Corsairs, while Gelu can upgrade both the Archers and the Wood Elves, thus having less creatures to upgrade. Upgrading them to the Sea Dogs is expensive, yet reduces a need in upgrading Frigate (which is even more expensive!), gets you them faster and makes the early game easier. With a group of Sea Dogs you can quickly clear many neutral creatures on a map, during the early game.

Moreover, he has only Advanced Offense, so he may choose seven secondary skills.
