"The Present is for skeptics, The Future is for people like me!" - N. Tesla

~A Stout man with feral eyes and long black over coat. His wild long hair is only kept neat by a old black ribbon making a furry pony tail. His beard is long as wild as his hair. As he shuffles about, dust rises from his clothes like a light fog and a clanking noise that some may know as the dreaded lightning rod follows rhythmically with his every step.
~Draorig Thorngauge was a skypirate of the old world. The very portrait of a gruff leader of lawless men and women. He has a wild nature that reminds one of a time when the line between man and beast was very thin. Yet he hides it in a veneer of self control and impassioned intellect.

I am Captain Dreorig Thorngauge of the Hinderscipe. Once a professor of theoretical electrothergy and meta-magnetic application in Ashford, London. While on an university funded expedition into a large meteorological front I was viciously attacked and lost my left eye and most of my fingers on the same side. The Leviathan which attacked me, left a 3 inch tooth-like spike in the socket. Though it fled quickly with the storm, the spike was undoubtedly a barb from the tentacle of some great beast that hides in clouds. I have spent the last 16 years hunting it. My obsession cost me my career and even my wife, all claiming me mad. My crew and I have gone on account to pay for this venture. Our dread ship, the Hinderscipe, is a specially designed "Storm Reaver" able to not only survive a storm, but harvest the charge of lightning from it to fuel it's huge capacitors. This power propels us at great speed in storms and when aimed at a price vessel, can send a charge that stuns most crews and disable most electronic devices. I dare say, the Hinderscipe's massive "mesh Sails" create quite the sensation as they make a shadow below like some great black bird. A dark omen for the hapless crews of our targeted prize of the day.
