Captain Deasy appears as an explorer whose book, In Tibet, is cited for an account of the Ovis Poli, and he is referenced again as a traveler. He remains outside the events of Marco Polo's journey, serving as a later witness to the regions the narrative evokes. No personal relationships, history, or transformation are described; his brief role is that of an observing voice from another voyage.
