James the Bird's Eye

James the Bird's Eye was a Brigadier in the Detinan army. Despite his youth, he had demonstrated sufficient capability as a field commander to be tapped by General Hesmucet to command a wing of the Detinan Army on the Marthasville campaign. When Bell took command of Northern forces from Joseph the Gamecock and counterattacked the Southron forces outside of Marthasville, James the Bird's Eye was killed while riding his unicorn toward the thickest of the fight. After some controversy, Brigadier Oliver succeeded him as commander of his wing.

James the Bird's Eye is closely based on James Birdseye McPherson.
