Cool they both look good. I'm just not sure how much law is really left on Azmier. I imagine that there would be some in three trees and the other two major cities.

Did you want to use two characters?

No, just one. But I boiled it down to two choices to fill what we do not have or what would be most fitting.

Cool both accepted your choice.

Then I think I would ask@Omarnreaper which he would rather have on his boat as it seems to me we are going to be his crew if he wants/lets us.

Finished now! Sorry if it's a bit messy, I'll proof read it again in a little bit.

Name: Otaerhyn "Rhyn" Amlaruil
Age: 27
Race: Half Elf - Aquatic Elf/Human
Class: 'Pirate'/Swashbuckler (explained below, I will change anything you deem necessary)


Personality:
Rhyn is a thoughtful person who doesn't go out of her way to make trouble or cause scenes. More often than not, she quietly goes about her own business. She isn't very trusting of others, mostly because the people she meets are intrigued by her race in some way, positive or negative. This makes her blunt and often dull to others, but she merely is not completely comfortable when in the presence of strangers. She prefers not to deal with it. She is a good person, and does help others when she can, but will only inconvenience herself to do so, not endanger.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Deity: N/A

Skills:
-Sailor: Rhyn has spent her life on the sea. She can live inside of it, so it only makes sense that she knows how to travel it. She has had the same boat for years now, and she knows how to run it herself.
-Swashbuckler: She knows how to use a sword. It's a light, fleeting style that focuses more on outmaneuvering an opponent instead of overpowering them.
-Physically Fit: She spends almost all of her time swimming and running the rigging of her boat. She is always on her feet and doesn't tire easily.
-Aquatic Harvesting: Having been raised by her elven mother, Rhyn spent most of her young life completely underwater. She can live off of the sea, which is made easy with her ability to breathe underwater. This does not only include essentials such as food or hydration (I'm guessing she can drink seawater, right?), but also skills such seaweed weaving and diving.

Weapons:
-Simple Scimitar: A simple blade crafted from the bone of a large aquatic mammal.
-Harpoon: A long bone shaft, pointed on both ends, good for throwing through the air or water.

Items:
-Boat Rigging
-Three storage barrels
-Clothing

Boat: The Roiling Maiden
Although Rhyn did not name her vessel, she has taken to calling it such with a smirk after she had heard it named such by others during one of few visits to Three Tress - after the strange, nude maiden seen hoisting the vessel's rigging. It is a relatively small vessel, although it could transport a good amount of bodies if it was required. It is approximately 30 feet in length and in recent conditions could house a handful comfortably. At the bow there is a covered space that now acts as Rhyn's boudoir instead of a stowage compartment. It is a sturdy boat that has seen countless storms and rocky waters. A few scratches adorn its hull,but there is no serious damage.

Background:
Rhyn was the half-breed child of an aquatic elf who lived on the outskirts of a relatively small underwater city. She never knew her human father and her mother never told her about him. Growing up was relative uneventful for the aquatic elf. Her home had not undergone the apocalyptic changes as the surface, and the city she knew bustled with activity from the many other aquatic elves that live there. But, Rhyn always looked to the sun. She was ever curious of her father, the world he knew, and just how people could live on the surface at all! In her youth, surfacing only brought the sight of endless sea. Despite her curiosity, the desolation of the surface world scared her from ever exploring it.

In her adolescence, Rhyn was misguided and confused, having never really fit in with the full-blooded elves in her surroundings. They had low opinions of the surface races, though that was because of centuries old bad blood between community leaders and the humans of old, instead of any recent developments, as there were none. As such, she was viewed as different, despite how little her human blood manifested in her in any significant way other than her appearance. Luckily, most people had the decency to merely avoid her and weren't violent or specifically hurtful to her. Despite constantly pestering her mother, she had learned nothing of the surface world, or her own birth. She knew that her story must have been somewhat interesting, due to the rarity of it, but her mother. She took many trips to the surface on her own. She never saw anything unfamiliar. At most, she saw breaching whales in the distance, or a strangely shaped cloud over head. Never any ships, never any birds.

She matured much faster than her peers thanks to her human blood. Rhyn was up and ready to go her own way much before her mother was ready for her to. But, Rhyn in part blamed her mother for her wanderlust, for never having answered the questions she had of her father. She felt no obligation to stay, when she believe the world outside held the answers she wanted. She left home at the age of 20, traveling through different cities owned by her people to little effect. Not long after she left home, she found a letter in her bag, from her mother, explaining the story of her father. Apparently, her mother had once lived on the surface centuries ago, and only resigned to living once again under the water after the Big Wave. But she always missed the surface, so she went back up in hopes of helping the people above. However, the people there were much different than they had been before, and the first humans she met were a group of marauders who captured her and did unspeakable things to her. She fled back to the sea, only to discover she was carrying one of the humans' child. Rhyn continued with her journey, not wanting to go home, and unsure whether or not she still wanted to go to the surface.

She was hoping on gathering information, or meeting people who had been to the surface, but she never really found a place much more willing to interact with her than her home town. Eventually, she just started to drift around, both on the surface of the water and the sea floor. She had continually visited the surface since her childhood, and it was after three years of wandering that she found something on the surface. It was a boat. She saw it long before she surfaced, and if she were ever asked, it was probably one of the most profound moments of her life. So used to empty, endless ocean, and an undisturbed surface, when she actually realized the silhouette she saw was on the surface, she stopped and stared for at least an hour. She didn't know if approaching it was a wonderful or terrible idea. She surfaced, and stalked the boat for a few days before she realized that there was no one aboard.

She boarded the boat, only to discover it was much smaller and less intricate than she expected. The crew, she discovered, was dead. Upon inspection, it looked as though they had run out of supplies and died slowly, one of them missing pieces of his flesh where his brothers had gotten desperate. She pushed there bodies overboard, and took command of the vessel. As time went on, she became familiar with the boat's rigging. While she once hunted with a bone spear, she kept a curved sword from the last owners of her vessel, and taught herself to wield it the best she could. When she gained the courage Rhyn decided to try and find humans with a map that was on the boat, and eventually, she did. Ever since, Rhyn really just travels the ocean, at times returning to Three Trees when she finds herself needed company.

That was longer than expected! It's done now.
I'll be willing to take people onto her boat, but the way I set her up is that she's been alone for a while.
GM, I know you wanted one aquatic elf for reasons, so please let me know if she's up to par!

Keiji is only 29 years old and the big wave happened 200 years ago. Needs to be revised. The idea is great and every thing is fine other then that.

Boat:
Small, rickety wooden canoe made as a life boat.

New Background:
When Keijin was born, it had already been almost 170 years. His father was dead, apparently killed by looter goblins before he was born. He heard his dad was a great man, the leader of their ship. But when he died, someone else took charge... Botan. He was a brute, a mad Inu Hengeyokai (dog). He would abuse and slap the shipmates around like they were his slaves. He took advantage of Keijin's mother, saying he would kill her son if she didn't do what he made her do. And what he made her do... it made Keijin furious. As he grew older and watched the pain he put people through in a world that was already pain enough. When Keijin became 16, he decided he had to do something.
In the night when most of the crew was sleeping, he snuck into the captain's quarters. Inside was Botan, sleeping with bottles of empty alcohol abundant on the floor. Keijin saw Botan's weapon leaning on the wall, grabbed it, and whacked Botan with the mighty club. However, Botan seemed unaffected. He woke up and grabbed Keijin, pulled him to the top of the ship and held him over the ledge. Botan screamed and strangled Keijin. His mother woke up, and so did the others. They screamed and yelled at Botan to stop, but he laughed and once Keijin had almost lost consciousness, dropped him into the water.
Keijin awoke on one of the life boats that somebody must have dropped down after Botan had walked away. The ship was gone... he had to start over... a new life... new people, a new family.

Name: Red

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Race: Orc

Class: Pirate

Appearance: Tall, athletic build. Handsome face, even for an Orc, with the only faults being a scar across left cheek and nose. Has red hair tied into a short pony tail, and is always clean shaven. Always has a michevous look in his eyes, and a smirk on his lips.

Personality: Cunning, crude sense of humour and ruthless. Loyal only to himself, those he fancies and those who he respects and can be charming if he wants to be.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Deity: Doesn't know any, doesn't care

Skills: Dirty fighting techniques, good sailor, good fisherman

Weapons: Bone knife and a wooden cudgel with Orchish writing on it.

Items: Pants, belt and pouch, small satchel and a hip flask.

Boat: A small boat, big enough for a few to sleep in, if they don't mind touching each other, with a sail and rudder. It also has a set of oars for when there are multiple people onboard so as to speed up their journey.

Background: Was born on the infamous Orc pirate ship that prowls the waters. Grew up learning how a ship works, how to fight and how to fish from those much older, wiser and experienced than him. Killed his first person at age 12 during a boarding action against another ship. Captured his first ship when he was 14, though it was a one man craft, it did have a lot of scrap and salvage. Got in trouble with the ships captain because he slept with his son, a few times, and was banished from the ship. Before he was banished, he had one more session with the Captains son, stole the Captains prize cudgel, and got as far away from that ship as possible. Became a mercenary for a while for other ships and towns, fought against other groups of pirates, held real steel in his hand for a moment before he lost it. He even gambled a bit, and pretty well, till he had enough to buy his own little boat. He hopes to one day have a large ship and crew of his own. He still takes on jobs for others, so long as they pay well, and respect his rank as captain of his boat.

Hmm, your history would be my guess. Everything else looks pretty good.

I always liked the oriental adventures. Keijis ancestors where totally from the stereotypically asian D&D continent that was on Azmier before the flood!! Lol
