For 10 points, name this tragic hero and captain of the Pequod in Herman Melville's Moby-Dick.
One character takes notice of this man's biblical namesake when he points out that dogs licked up the blood of that namesake. Although he is a Quaker, he is driven to revenge, which ends when he yells "From hell's heart I stab at thee." His real-life counterpart is George Pollard, Jr., who was in charge of the Essex until its sinking, but probably lacked the obsessiveness of this character, which led to the death of all the sailors except for Ishmael.
