[quote=@knighthawk] [@Isengrim] Lasrach and the captain could get into a one sided screaming match. "If you keep flapping yer hands about like a hopped-up humming bird, i'm cutting them off!" "..." "Don't look at me in that tone of voice!" Honestly I'd like to hold onto them both for the moment and see what RyanTadashi has to say. [/quote] I definitely like the Lasrach character! Balder would probably see him as his natural favorite, both due to his desire to watch over somebody with a disadvantage and due to the fact that the Deor is a hulking warrior like himself. I think that he would be glad to see if you can [i]teach an old dog new tricks[/i] and attempt to learn some of this language so that he can be one of the few people that understand his apprentice (especially with all of the snooty nobles aboard!). Might even make it his mission to make sure that he can find a way to heal Lasrach's voice before he passes on. [@Isengrim] I'm excited for the IC post, thanks for that awesome little writeup on the crew's bios! I have no problem with swearing; Balder has heard enough of it in his days around soldier degenerates. As far as substance use, I think it definitely has a place on a pirate ship, though Balder needs to check his intake before every system in his body fails!
