Alan is also handy with swords and technology. Spiny Jim asked the ammonite to pull the two A-wave Magnetrons from the DSS (containing Gipsy, Sprite, and Iggy) into his space station. After Gipsy humiliated him in battle, Spiny Jim challenged her to fight Alan in single combat. She was confused about how she was supposed to fight him-until he suddenly pulled out his sword and attacked her. After a lengthy battle, Gipsy stepped on Alan and defeated him. He later returned in the pirates' control room, was sat on by Iggy. He was presumably killed by Iggy's weight, since he isn't mentioned again.
