Name: Konrad Ward
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Apperance: Standing a fine 5 feet 10 inches tall. 

Profession: Zee-Captain, has worked his way up from the bottom, from Cabin boy to ships hand, able zailor, and tried his hand at Gunnery and Engine tending. And now, stands at the helm.

Ambition: Become one of the Greatest, Most Remembered, and most Storied Explorers in all of the Unterzee. Watch as his name is spoken of in awe and listen of the stories told of him. 

Past: Long ago in a time that's beginning to feel like a dream to the man. Well he was just a wee mite, when London was taken. He came down with the city. His parents and older sister with it. They recovered. And they made a living in the deep dark. But their family couldn't survive as they were now. So when he was old enough by his eyes, he fled. He didn't look back when his mother screamed for him to return. He stowed away on a ship that sailed out onto the Zee. The First Mate almost threw him overboard when they found him. But the Captain stopped him. They had need of another pair of hands. So the young boy became the ships Cabin Boy, running errands about the ship that could fit into his little hands. When they returned he opted to stay aboard. The crew grew to like him, and his young energy. He didn't experience the terror quite like they did. When they hove about to get a bead on an Angler Crab that bore down on them, he hung over the side of the ship to get a better look. It still scared him, but not in the same way.

As he got older, he followed the old captain, who died at zee. The First Mate, the new Captain, kept him on, by then Konrad was old enough to man the railing and guns like the rest. He survived the sinking of that boat, and with barely a handful of zailors made it back to London, where he signed on with another ship. Working there.

Long did he roam the zees. And worked his way up. Captains and Crew welcomed his exuberance. His keen eye, and jokes and tales of adventure.

Before long, the Captain he signed on with retired, one of a few who managed it. And the ship was passed on to Howard. The crew voting him Captain. The First Mate agreeing.

They now pull out on their first major voyage together, with new and old faces. A new Captain's maiden voyage. Onto the Dark Zee.
