Personality
Van der Decken has went deranged one night and murdered his own crew, and even defying heaven itself.

Cursed by God
According to legend, on a stormy day hundreds of years ago, Van der Decken suddenly became deranged and began killing off his crewmates by throwing them off the ship. He then invoked the wrath of God by defying him. As punishment, he and his ship were forced to wander the seas forever. However, though it was clear that Decken was mad, as legends tend to exaggerate, several points are debatable.

He ultimately died on Fishman Island. However, his decendents have been piloting the Flying Dutchman ever since. The current captain is his eighth generation grandson, Van der Decken IX.
