Alkonost:
Frel: Potoooooooo reaches for the dried fruit in the trail rations and eats it happily. Well I'm a trapper by trade, I like being out in the wilderness. That is my official stance that got me onto this expedition. The truth is I ran out of welcome in the last village. A few to many of my nightly visit's were to women who's men couldn't take a little competition. I decided that I needed some fresh air, in a different location, you know for my health. You seem to have the walk of a man walking away from trouble as well. Dont' worry I won't ask what her name was, but I hope she was worth it.
Kiryu:
1) You come upon two rougher looking women. Kalcora Weems, a halfling woman with a large number of scars on her face and arms, and Machi Valenth a Half-Orc woman with tattoo's covering her arms and poking up from her shirt going up her neck. Machi has clearly been crying but at your approach she takes her leave.
Kalcora: Hello, and yes I would love some coffee, havn't had any since we left Andoran. Don't mind Machi, she was supposed to be here with her husband, but he left her at the alter a month before we set sail. Can you believe it, the nerve of him. As for me, there's not much to say you can probably tell by my accent that I'm not from Andoran, I am originally from Cheliax. By from Cheliax I mean, I was a slave. I was freed by an Andoran militia, I had just been sold to an Osirian noble, and was loaded onto a ship with several dozen other slaves bound for Osiria. Well the Andoran's they don't take well to slavers, have orders to board every slave ship they see, lucky for me my ship was spotted by the Andoran's. I was brought back to Andoran and have been looking for a place to settle down since then. The further from Cheliax the better for me. Tell me about yourself, how does a Wayang end up on a ship, I thought your people lived underground?
2) You approach Palodina Orbonth, as she is sitting in the forecastle eating one morning. She see's you approach, as her eyes are always scanning the room. She takes the coffee you offer without a word and chugs it quickly, wiping her mouth on her sleeve. Palodina is a human, she has a large nose and long black hair.
Palodina: Thank you for the coffee. She stares at you for several minutes. When suddenly her expression softens. Bah, its been too long since I've lived in polite society, I shouldn't look for enemies where I have none. I'm here to get a fresh start, get away from some bad choices I've made and paid for. And I do appreciate the kindness you just showed me. I've taken up rope making, not too bad at it either, good enough to get me work at the colony. So if your ever in need of a good stout rope, I'm your girl, I guess. Palodina seems uncomfortable talking to much and goes back into silence finishing her meal, she thanks you again for the coffee and heads back below deck to her cabin.
3) Kurvis Nurpico is a middle aged human dressed in black robes and a perpetual scowl, he keeps his grey hair cut short, and has a holy symbol of Abadar around his neck. Though he appears inconvenienced by your approach, he speaks to you kindly.
Kurvis: I would never say no to a little coffee. Though its usually me offering someone a drink and asking what's on their mind. I am Father Kurvis, one of the many servants of Abadar. If your ever in need, I do sell scrolls and healing at a reasonable price.
At that point another man, younger looking and a half-elf beside, dressed in green robes and displaying the holy symbol of Erastil comes and sits down next to you both. He has a broad infectious smile and striking violet eyes. At the approach of this new person Father Kurvis's face softens and he smiles, for a fraction of second.
Eamon: Father grouse, I see you've been making new friends, how uncharacteristic of you. Eamon extends a hand to you. Father Eamon Caranth of the church of Erastil at your service.
Kurvis: Father easy, I had thought, for a moment, that perhaps you put him up to bringing me coffee. Apparently I'm not as terrifying to look upon as I used to be. Perhaps as I get older, I'm simply becoming more distinguished. You on the other hand, still look a teenager without a care in the world.
Eamon: That is only because I have you as my friend, who worries enough for the both of us. Kiryu, would like to join us in a game of cards? Father grouse and I don't play for money, he hates to lose his, and I have little need of money. We simply play to test our wills against each other, and for the good company.
Eko)
You approach Luetin Calewick, a balding human, with dark hair on the sides and back of his head. He wears a tight fitting chain shirt that accentuates his husky, well muscled frame. He is leaning against the railing watching Anya, across the deck.
Luetin: Pull your nose out of that book there's something special happening right now. Luetin directs your attention to Anya who is shooting arrows with a rope tied to it, in hopes of catching fish. She is currently pulling a fish up, and bends deeply over the railing to grab a hold of the fish and pull it up. Tell me that's not the most spectacular view you've ever seen in your life, book boy. When you write about this, mark this moment as the beginning of the Clan Calewick, the strongest house with the strongest son's and most beautiful daughters. Our boys will be blacksmiths like me, and our daughters will be feared and wanted by all the men of the Island. He slaps you hard on your back and laughs boisterously enough to get Anya's attention. He pulls out a flask and offers it to you. Come have a drink with me, you look like a good strong lad, but your attention is in the wrong place. Perhaps we can find a woman for you as well. He wraps his large arms around your shoulders and begins to sing a drinking a song, loudly and off key.
