Late 15th century Portuguese admiral and conqueror. Because of some error in God's plan, I am on the Fediverse in 2026.

Interests include spices, seizing spices, mercantilism, finding Prester John Mastodon, cannons, sailing ships, not dying from scurvy, ocean currents, helping god recognize his own, determining longitude (if possible), serving rough justice, and King Manuel I.

[This is a character; Portugal did horrific shit that I condemn. This is a hapless bozo running amok in 2026.]
