Skipper is taken to the pilgrimage in Canterbury Tales to represent a diverse range of characters from different social classes and occupations. His inclusion adds to the vivid portrayal of society during that time and enriches the storytelling with varied perspectives and experiences.
The skipper is a shipman who is on a pilgrimage. He is from far west. He ons a ship and he knows the sea very well he is also a tradesman his ship is used to transport goods but he steals so he could also be a pirate.
I have researched this info for my project for all to use:
The skipper is a brownskin shipman/sailor who is on a pilgrimage.
He can't ride a horse for the life of him, as he looked awkward on it.
He is from far west.
He owns a ship and has seen every river and bay in England.
He is a bit of a rascal, he is known for stealing wine while the captain sleeps.
He was in a gown Of thick rough cloth falling to the knee.
He had A dagger hanging on a cord around his neck.
The shipman has trouble staying on his horse. He has lived all his life on the sea, and has excellent sea-legs. But sea-legs are no use at all for staying on horseback.
He rode upon a rouncy, as he couth
means: he rode a cheap, low-quality horse - to the best of his ability
Skipper is almost a pirate like character from the 1800's, or medieval. He wears a tanish brown tunic like dress and he wear a hooded short cape with it. He also has a dagger tired around his neck and has a beard. His skin is dark from being outside all the time and can sometimes be a drunk. He is good on a boat, but sucks at riding a horse.
The Skipper does not have a name in Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales. The Canterbury Tales was published in 1475.

In "The Canterbury Tales," the pilgrims are traveling from London to the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. They embark on this journey in the hopes of seeking spiritual guidance, as well as engaging in storytelling to pass the time and entertain each other along the way.
As far as I know, ancient Judaism did not have a pilgrimage either of the kind taken by Muslims to Mecca or of the kind taken by Christians (such as the English pilgrimage to St. Thomas Becket's tomb at Canterbury). However, as long as the Temple stood, the people of Israel traveled to the Temple at Jerusalem for sacrifices and for certain holy days, such as Passover.
The most common pilgrimage is taken by Muslims; the Hajj, a pilgrimage to Mecca.
Pilgrimage
A pilgrimage church is typically shaped like a cross, but the shapes can vary. Pilgrimage churches are frequently located by the graves of saints and are usually built where a miracle had taken place.
The moral of the Miller's Tale in The Canterbury Tales is that deceit and trickery often lead to unforeseen consequences and can result in chaos and confusion. The tale demonstrates how dishonesty and manipulation can disrupt relationships and create a chain reaction of events that spiral out of control.

In "The Canterbury Tales," the Knight tells a story of only one battle that he fought in. The battle in which he participated was against the heathen infidels in Alexandria during the Crusades.
Dragon Tales is no longer on Netflix as of March 1, 2017.
I'm assuming you mean pilgrimage? They are taken for various reasons, such as: to conquer land, to trade valuables, to explore and to find culture. (There are more, just those may be the main reasons)
It is said he got rid of snakes, but this is taken to symbolise paganism.
The simplistic answer would be the cult of the martyred St Thomas Becket, whose magnificent shrine was the object of veneration and religious pilgrimages from 1220 to 1538. This would be to ignore Canterbury's role as the mother Church of all England and the seat of the leading Archbishop in the country; it also ignores the magnificence of the building itself which was enough on its own to draw visitors. Canterbury was also a primary seat of knowledge and learning, based at its two scriptoria (one at the Cathedral Priory and the other at nearby St Augustine's Abbey). Books from all over Europe were taken to Canterbury for copying, preserving texts dating back to the Carolignian and Late Roman era on a very wide range of subjects - Canterbury's monastic library was the envy of all England. A specific "Canterbury school" or style of writing and illumination was developed that allows scholars today to identify the source of texts now held elsewhere (some in Germany, Denmark and the USA) as being the scriptoria at Canterbury; this style influenced other monasteries such as the Cathedral Priory at Rochester. It is often forgotten that there were also relics of a huge number of other Saints housed at Canterbury cathedral, even before Thomas Becket was sanctified. Visiting the shrines of Saints was considered a religious virtue and a "credit" in progressing to Heaven. Some people sought miraculous cures for illnesses or deformities; others sought intercession and forgiveness for sins, or some other assistance. Pilgrims flocked to Canterbury in large numbers.
