East Forest
Male Gnome.
Two Elf hunters.
Havic says, "Ello ello."
Havic looks at you.
You smile.
You see a male gnome,
He is slim and wirey, and at a height of about three feet and a half feet, is
unremarkable for his race.
He has
unruly curly red hair that frames a balding head.
He has dark eyes that squint with an obvious display of mirth and mischief.
He is in perfect condition.
Wielding : Elfwood staff {gripped}.
Armour : Cowl
Cape
Gloves
Ivory shield {enchanted}
Light leather {charmed}
Calf boots
He has some coins.
Havic asks, "Oh my ... You a princess ?"
Havic crouches down and peers up at you.
You laugh.
You tell Havic who you are.
You say, "Sureenla priestess of waylumi."
Havic says, "Waylumi ... ah, of course. Forgive me, forgive me."
Havic hops around a bit.
You touch Havic and vitalize him.
Havic says, "I am Havic. Havic Mallifitz the Sixth."
Havic nods proudly.
Havic tells you his name. You feel some enlightenment and gain 1650
experience from the encounter.
You say, "A pleasure to meet you. i've been traveling a lot so i've noticed
many new faces."
Havic says, "Ah ... my face would be one of the newest."
Havic nods.
You ask, "Ah have you thought of a guild yet?"
Havic says, "It's been only a few days here in Gahlen. I'm from Domplin."
Havic says, "I have ... er am ... I mean I did."
Havic says, "I am a mage."
You clap.
Havic thumps his staff on the ground proudly.
You say, "Wonderful."
Havic hops around a bit.
You say, "My husband is a soldier."
Havic says, "Indeed. Capital stuff. Joly good, what."
You grin.
Havic asks, "Oh? Who is that ?"
You say, "Tiberia."
You show band to Havic.
Havic says, "Hmmmm ... don't know him yet. Met some other soldier folks. Very
brave yes yes."
Slipping around this wearer's finger and rather snug against it is a band of
lustrous white gold which has been polished to a fine shine. Along the top of
the piece of jewelry are miniscule pieces of sapphire and blue crystal, each
meticulously crafted to adorn a circlet of white gold that attaches them to the
main band. In the centerpiece is a finely cut, royal blue crystal, and while
not very big in itself it's much larger than the other speckles of blue gems.
Writing has been engraved in tiny, flowing script along the inside of the ring,
matching the design's elegance and simplicity.
Designed by Anese (MG).
~*Through the good and bad, our love and Waylumi will guide us along. Forever
I'll love you, Tiberia*~
Havic exclaims, "Oh my ... wedding ring ... wonderful. Capital stuff that.
Jolly good!"
Havic beams brightly.
You beam brightly.
Havic says, "I will. I will. Ah well. You be busy with prayers and such, and I
have my books so I best go."
Havic tells you his name and a lot about himself. You feel enlightened
by the information and gain 4000 experience from the encounter.
You tell Havic who you are and a lot about yourself.
You grin.
You say, "If you should need touch my mind."
Havic says, "Go with the light Princess Priestess."
Havic hops around a bit.
Havic waves.

A bright light arcs across the heavens until is
rests on Jynn and a light voice lilts:
SPEAK YE THAT I AM WEAK MORTAL CHILD OF DARKNESS?

->Pumashukina drops to her knees.

Sureenla kneels bowing her heading praying, "waylumi

Splirtch kneels and clasps her hands together in
reverence
Vynn bows her head and kneels in reverence.
Cilah starts, flicking her ears as if startled. It takes her a moment to
reorient from her half asleep state but as she realizes what is happening, she
slips from the pew to her knees, her expression changing to one of amazed
reverence.
Caelen bows his head and pivots his ears back, kneeling.
Dyerek inclines his body in respect as he enters the temple.
Tiberia bows his head

and and sacred Utterance of your strong yet soft and
Loving voice for the voice is the sweetest of music to
your devoted's ears and your love and peace overwelms
us on this night of great Joy! Praise the Goddess!
Praise your Holy name!
Dyerek says, "The weakness within thee. Notice, she has not shouted since."
Dyerek smirks.
Dyerek approaches the altar and takes a knee, golden hair obscuring his face
as he lowers his head in a brief prayer.
Sureenla Waylumi you have blessed us all giving us the strength to
stand against the darkness. We're forever your humble
servants as long as we draw our breath. Guide us bringing
us closer to your presence. With waylumi nothing is
impossible. Waylumi bless!

"Yes! Lift your voices in praise and worship brothers and sisters,
if thy spirit in you is so moved for Great is Her holiness who has
graced us with her voice this night!"
Pumashukina Praise Waylumi!
Sureenla Preaches with Authority
Waylumi has raised her voice a beautiful song to our ears. may all hear and
rejoice for she is the way, the light to which we follow. waylumi bless!
Helmic If I may ask, what exactly went on over there?
Pumashukina sends a flare into the sky
The flare spotlights a location
Waylumi Temple
The Temple of Waylumi is the Temple of Light. The floor and walls are pure
marble, gleaming white from the magical spheres that float in the corners.
Several chandeliers hang throughout the main room with each hanging crystal
sparkling in the light.
A meditation room leads off to the west and a holy room of worship leads
through a white marble arch to the east blocked by a shimmering veil of light.
Directly north is the Temple Treasury.
Although the temple is quiet it vibrates with the pulsating light emitting from
within the Altar. Clerics garbed in rich, yet simple robes, are busy with
their daily duties. A beautiful white sign describes devotion to the temple.
Dian Praise Waylumi, yes!
Lynxs praise waylumi
Cilah speaks softly, her words unheard but lips moving as she kneels right
where she was by the pew.
Pumashukina lift your voices across the kingdom! Shout her Praise!
Marigil Praise Waylumi, Her Guidance and Her Love.
Vynn speaks humbly, her head bowed. "Thank you Waylumi, for your
continuous watch over myself and faithmates. Thank you for bringing
myself out of the bondage of slavery, and have given me a new life
with promise and hope."
Dyerek stands and straightens, shaking his hair back, much to the annoyance
of the bat nesting there. "Shouted insults to a god can only go unanswered for
so long," he says.
Sureenla Waylumi bless, for her voice a beautiful song to our ears
has been heard. Let all rejoice!
Alanton Praise Waylumi in the highest. A flame in the night, in the
day eternal burning!

gift of Her love and sacred Light.
A light shines on those of the faith and the voice
of pure clarity speaks softly:
BE AT PEACE MY CHILDREN, I AM WITH THEE NOW AND
EVERMORE.
Sureenla beams brightly.
Pumashukina face full of tears, smiles the brightest of smiles.
Cilah bows her head even more, seeming completely unaware of the others
around her as tears come to her eyes.
Ariane weeps in joy and wonder, "Thank you belssed Goddess. We are your
children, evermore."
Sureenla tears fall from her eyes as she says, "waylumi has spoken, waylumi
bless!"
Pumashukina Preaches with Authority
PRAISE WAYLUMI!
Zoyya keeps her head bow as tears well up in her eyes and begin to streak her
cheeks, full of joy.
Caelen Thank you, Waylumi, for guiding me to the Light and watching
over us all.

Ariane Thank you, beautiful Mother, for always being there for me,
even in the darkest hours as I labored under the yoke of the
collar. Thank you for watching over me, and guiding me so
that I may return home and to your service.
Cilah finally looks up, slowly, her expression still filled with awe.
noticing all the people she blinks a couple of times and rubs her eyes.
Alanton says to Dyerek, "I think.. The one with the loudest voice won..."
Dyerek says, "Hard to argue with, good priest."
Dyerek smiles faintly.
Alanton says, "Indeed."
Sureenla rises to her feeting beaming around to each person about the temple.
Alanton says, "If ever there was a time doubt could have entered my heart,
about truth, about light, about the power beyond the world. It
shall never again be known to me."
Sureenla Preaches with Authority
Let her voice and name be heard! Waylumi bless you all!
peace, love, and joy
shile she grant thee!
Tiberia bows.
Alanton looks off into the distance and you hear the faint sound of a choir
singing one long note, "Hallelujah!"
Sureenla looks off into the distance and you hear the faint sound of a choir singing one
long note, "Hallelujah!"
Targi looks off into the distance and you hear the faint sound of a choir
singing one long note, "Hallelujah!"
Alanton says, "Well.. That was just.. Awesome."
Avilon agrees with Alanton.
Alanton says, "I dont think im going to be able to stop saying that for a month
atleast..."
Cilah says, "I, I thought I was dreaming, at first."
Sureenla nods.
Sureenla kneels down on her knees on a pillow bowing her head and clasping
her hands in front of her after jesturing for the others to join her.
Meya slips off the bench and kneels on a pillow.
Splirtch comes over and kneels on a pillow.
Aishia smiles softly and after a moment slips to kneels on a pillow as well.
Sureenla exclaims, "Waylumi, thank you for all your blessings upon us. We stand
strong with you! You are our shield, our guidance! thank you for
this lovely chapple in my home. thank you for everything! waylumi
bless!"
Splirtch smiles warmly, "Waylumi bless this home and its occupants, my dear
friend Sureenla and her husband Tiberia."
Sureenla smiles at splirtches words still knelt in prayer.
Sureenla exclaims, "Waylumi thank you, now we have a place to worship and pray to you
in my home! waylumi bless! With you we can achieve anything,
Waylumi bless!"
Splirtch grasps her Dove pendant, softly whispering words of praise.
Splirtch asks to Sureenla, "Oh... you didn't see my sermon, did you?"
Sureenla shakes her head.
Aishia whispers softly, "Blessed Lady of Light, bless this home. Fill it with
your love and comforting peace. Watch over Sureenla and Tiberia, and keep them
all safe from harm. Guide them as they walk throught the blessing of life, hand
in hand, and fill them with you wisdom. May they ever stand strong as beacons
of you light." She falls silent a moment and then bows forward and kisses the
feet of the statue tenderly.
Splirtch says, "I think I'm giving it soon. Maybe. Things got kind of
distracted with this Plague."
Sureenla smiles.
Sureenla gasps softly at Aishia's words.
a few tears trickle down her face as Sureenlalooks up.
Sureenla slowly stands beaming at each of you.
Aishia looks up, the tips of her ears turning red.
Sureenla kneels back down to hug aishia softly.
Sureenla says, "Thank you Aishia, thank you sister."
Splirtch looks up at Sureenla, her face full of warmth, "It's beautiful to
see so much go well for you, Sister Sureenla."
Aishia hugs you.
Sureenla hugs Aishia.
Sureenla looks up to splirtch beaming.
Sureenla exclaims, "Aishia has stood by us through good and hard times I can not look
at her as a friend anymore, but as a sister!"
Sureenla says to Aishia, "You'll be my sister no matter what, you do not have to be
devoted to waylumi to be my sister."
Aishia looks up in in a mix of confusion and shock, "Huh? Wha?"
Splirtch smiles softly at Aishia, "I think we all feel that way. You're a
wonderful person to us all, Aishia."
Aishia smiles softly and throws her arms around Sureenla and then Splirtch.
Sureenla welcomes the embrace, beaming at both of them.
Aishia says, "I do no more or less than all of you have done for me..."
Sureenla exclaims to Aishia, "You do more than you know, you are such a doll to know,
sister, so wonderful!"
Aishia shuffles and blushes. "I don't do much.. I'm just there and beign a
friend."
Splirtch says to Aishia, "Truly, Aishia, I feel you've done so much more for me
than I ever could have for you."
Sureenla agrees with Splirtch.
Aishia says to Splirtch, "You were the one risking your life for the slaves..
not me."
Sureenla smiles warmly.
Sureenla rises to her feet once again.
Sureenla says, "I must rest briefly sisters."
Sureenla waves.
This petite young woman holds herself with an air of noble grace and elegance. Her pale, porcelain skin glows with a soft pink hue, which is contrasted by a long curtain of shimmering black hair. With delicate human bone structure, her lovely, heart-shaped face features a slightly upturned nose and full pink lips. Her big, beautiful eyes are a pale jade color with a fringe of dark lashes. She stands just over 5 feet tall with a slender form and ample feminine curves.
She has long silky black hair.
She has pale jade colored eyes.
I'm Qoia La Moy daughter to a duke's son from a kingdom far away unknown to
These parts. I spent my young childhood watching my mother sew clothing, and
watched the chef grill. I watched my mother sew every stitch, and design the most beautiful gowns I'd ever seen. I studied every piece I could see for I knew this skill would come in handy some day. I watched the chef with just as much interest as my mother. He taught me how to mix different things together to make the best dishes possible, and how to grill them just right. I also learned to act noble and proper as well as to
read and write. Sadly though, my parents were killed while traveling when I was
about eight years of age. I was left alone since my brothers had already been sent to train to become nights a few years before.
I was sent to live in the castle of my Father's sister to be taught farther in my training. This is where I learned the proper way to curtsey before others, and to be a lady. My previous knowledge was expanded upon as well. These were my days until I was kidnapped, and then sold to the Palace as a servant. I worked hard as a servant doing whatever I was told. After some time of servitude I was freed to choose my path. My path has been chosen, and that is to put to use the skills I was taught to honor the great overseer.
Qoia tells Dyerek: good evening lord dyerek.
Dyerek tells Qoia: A touch belated, I know. But I am well, and yourself?
Qoia tells Dyerek well. about to come north. I'd like to have you charm my crown and perhaps we could fish or something for a while if you've the time..
Dyerek tells Qoia: I can attempt the charming, certainly.
Qoia tells Dyerek: I'm now in Gahlen where shile I meet you?
Dyerek tells Qoia: Do you know where our justice courtyard is?
Qoia tells Dyerek: I do.
Dyerek tells Qoia: Come then.
Gahlen Justice Courtyard
Dyerek (pirched casually on the guillotine).
Qoia curtseys.
Dyerek nods at you slightly. "Good evening."
Qoia looks over you slowly, "Good evening."
You see a male elf,
{A small bat, roughly the size of a child's hand rests comfortably in his
hair.}
A fine featured Elven youth who carries himself with the poise and p
ride of one
born into nobility. He tops six feet by an inch or two, and has skin that is
very pale, even by the standards of his people. He is without scar or blemish,
face furthering the impression of lavishly nourished upbringing. Deep blue eyes
gaze lazily out of an angular face that sports an aristocratic nose set on high
cheekbones. Slightly unsettling is the fact that in his rare smiles, his
canines are a bit too long to be natural, though not so long that they dwarf
their fellows and show as an obvious pair of fangs. His body is very thin, and
not especially muscular.
He has a lush cascade of golden blonde hair that falls to his mid-back in
waves.
He has deep blue eyes, often seeming blank and unfocused.
He is in perfect condition.
Wielding : Black whip {gripped} {sharpened}.
Armour : Black cowl {charmed}

Skin shield {charmed}
Gold jerkin {charmed}

Pair of elven pants
He has no money.
Gahlen Justice Courtyard
The courtyard resides outside of the castle surrounded by an iron shod
fence. Green grass and floral arranged bushes provide an odd contrast to the
large wood platform in the center of the yard. Just before the platform thick
metal poles with iron chains called "anchors", hold convicted criminals who are
awaiting judgement. A crate holding small casks of liquid is stationed next to
the anchor.
The platform is about two feet off the ground and in the center of it is a wood
and metal framed guillotine; a wood base with iron seatings on each edge and a
razor sharp blade that hangs at the top of two, ten foot poles. To the right
and left of the guillotine are witness boxes and on a risen step is the
executioner's stand.
A gate leads out into the park to the west and directly south is a thick iron
framed door forming the entrance to the court holding room where a prisoner
waits to be brought to the courtyard.
Dyerek looks down at you, the same slow intent in his gaze.
Dyerek looks at Qoia.
Dyerek extends a gloved hand. "The crown?"
Qoia smiles.
Qoia gives a Feather crown to Dyerek.
Qoia sits on the edge of the platform and looks up at you watching you work.
Dyerek hisses softly, "Shhhh..."
Dyerek rises slowly. "Not here. Come."
Qoia follows Dyerek.
Qoia stands.
Gahlen Courtyard Path
Dyerek.
Dyerek and Qoia arrive from the east.
Dyerek begins to chant some magical words in an attempt to charm an
item.
Dyerek continues chanting in a soft voice as magical energies tingle
around the crown.
Dyerek completes the magical charming and imbues the crown with
greater defensive magical properties!
Qoia beams brightly.
Dyerek asks, "Tell me, what is all the fus with these?"
Qoia says, "They give luck."
Qoia smiles.
Dyerek looks at Feather crown
{charmed}.
Qoia exclaims, "And they're pretty!"
Dyerek nods, extending it back to you. "Indeed."
Dyerek gives a Feather crown
{charmed} to Qoia.
Qoia asks, "How much do I owe you?"
Dyerek says, "A mere twenty crown."
Dyerek smiles slowly, faintly.
Qoia says, "I'll be right back."
Qoia curtseys.
Gahlen Bank
Dyerek.
Sign.
Dyerek and Qoia arrive from the south.
Qoia gives 35 crown coins to Dyerek.
Dyerek deposits some money into his account.
Qoia smiles at Dyerek.
Pelagie arrives from the south.
Qoia curtseys.
Pelagie withdraws some money from her account.
Pelagie smiles.
Pelagie says, "Hello, Qoia."
Pelagie leaves south.
Dyerek says, "That is .. quite a tip, Trader Qoia."
Qoia says to Dyerek, "Please Qoia.."
Qoia glances over you slowly once again.
Dyerek says, "Qoia then."
Gahlen Justice Courtyard
Dyerek.
Dyerek and Qoia arrive from the west.
Qoia asks, "Reason why you want to be here?"
Qoia smiles.
Dyerek asks, "Reason you do not?"
Qoia says, "No, anywhere you are I'll be if given the chanse.."
Qoia blushes slightly at her words.
Dyerek places a hand on your cheek, vacant, glacial gaze searching your face.
"You are .. very forward, Qoia."
Qoia shivers slightly at your touch, "Normally I'm not but around you... I
find it hard to stop myself..."
Dyerek nods, not moving an inch from the awkward, intent stare and position.
"I fail to see why. What am I that effects you so?"
Qoia remains very still under your gaze and the coldness of your skin against
her cheek she lifts her eyes to yours and locks gazes with you. She whispers,
"Me either... And it's been this way since day 1... I can't explain any of it,
but it is there none the less."
Qoia tells Elaru exclaiming: My crown is now charmed by dyerek!
Qoia tells Kaydena: if you want me to forge for you later I will.
Kaydena tells Qoia: Many thanks. I want to take it north.
Dyerek removes his hand from your cheek and returns it to the edge of the
guillotine platform, eyes still staring hard, penetratingly into yours. "What
.. is it .. you .. wish .. of .. me?"
Qoia glances away as she shifts slightly, "Now that... I don't even know
myself... just yet... You know I like you... I've not hidden that from you...."
She returns her gaze to you meeting your gaze with a hard coldness of her own
one that you've never seen before. "One thing I do not know is your feelings...
beyond that my skin is not unpleasant and that I'm the only darmahkian you
speak too... I would at least like to know what there is to know if you will
reveal.. I care deeply for you, and wether you come to accept it or not is up
to you. that day I could hear it in your voice that you were unhappy... I
wished I could take that pain away but knowing if I reached out too soon you'd
pull away and probably withdraw completely so I kept my lips zipped and didn't
reach out to you... It was hard for me though... those i care about whether
friends or more get a devotion from me... I guess I care sometimes more than i
should... I can't make since of anything I feel for you, but I know it's there,
and with time I will... as for you.. Perhaps it's your turn to reveal if you
choose so."
"If I choose so?" Dyerek regards you still more intently, the chill touch of
his fingers felt through his glove as he finds your cheek again. "That is a
very l
arge if." His lilting tones are soft, but eerily cool like his skin.
"That is a rather sizable if. I am speaking with you, for a second time, in a
private, if not entirely comforting place. How do you receive that?"
Qoia smiles faintly, "I think.... something no matter how small.. or big must
be there... It's just a matter if you let it escape you or not... Is it someone
in the past has hurt you, is it that this you feel scares you? that I do not
know... But i feel honored that you have had me on your boat and now here with
you... And now tonight you've touched me more than of all the times I've seen
you... There must be something..."
Dyerek asks, "Is that how I strike you? Frightened and hurt?"
Qoia says, "It is just a guess... but you strike me as very closed off... i can
tell you barely let anyone in... at least not close to the real
you.. Only you can tell me how you truely feel though. My guesses are
just that based on what I've seen."
Qoia tells Elaru: what you doing?
Dyerek says, "I see very little point in it, truthfully. I am of a scholarly
cast, and have learned to depend upon people little." He gazes
around. "None could have told me that a bordertown would be so
uncomfortable, people so damnably uncompanionable and obnoctious.
Though it is encouraging to see people do know manners in you.
And from the south, no less."
Qoia nods slightly, "Yes many are annoying... both here and in Darmahk.."
Qoia says, "I never thought I'd meet someone such as yourself, but I
did."
Dyerek asks, "A sea of annoyances, and you found what you were looking for in
me, did oyu?"
Qoia says, "I found a strong, inteligent handsome, great personality, someone to
enjoy being around... All of that in you... As my mother always said,
"We must be happy before we can make others happy." I find I'm most
happy when with you, so make of that what you will. i was not
searching, but here you are."
Dyerek looks at Qoia.
Qoia looks over you slowly before returning her gaze to yours her eyes
softening once more. She reaches a hand up and rests it over yours lightly before
removing it once more, "Maybe Elaru's right... Maybe I'm in love... nott that
she'd know anything about love... nor do I...."
Dyerek twitches a shoulder slightly. "None know of love. Least of all me.
Elaru loves magic, and I love
.. very little." His hand twitches beneath yours
slightly. "Loneliness and the ache for physicality are what dominate my
romantic aspirations, I think. That is as open as I have ever been with a
human, and a suden."
Qoia reaches her hand up to yours once more and steps slightly closer to you,
"Dyerek, It's just me, and you... What is it that bothers you... Please tell
me... I want to help if I can... I want to see you happy."
Dyerek shakes his head slowly, faintly. "Much bothers me. But I think what
you are questioning on is the fact that I no longer believe in the happiness
you wish to instill. Happiness comes in small doses. A fine wine, a delicious
roast, the touch of a lover in the bleek and black of night. It is not a
constant, and I have come to realize that.
Qoia asks, "I believe that perhaps when you find your true partner... your true
lover.. It can be constant... I've believed that since I was a little
girl... It was the only thing I had to hold on too... Is that one day
I'd find my prince..... After my parents died... I became a little
girl that noone really paid much attention too... I lived with my
aunt but her kids were always before me... My dreams are all I've had
for almost 11 years now.... I had to have something to drive me on,
even to this day..... How is it that you've begun to feel this way,
who or what has done this to you?"
Dyerek shakes his head again, touch remaining in place. "That is of little
consequence. My lessons learned are what they are, and dwelling upon them is as
twisting a barb in the flesh. You are very hopeful. Very .. optimistic."
Qoia steps sllightly closer to you gazing deeply in your eyes. She leaves her
hand around yours her warm skin contrasting your cold skin, "Dyerek... just let
go... please... don't do this to yourself... I'll always be here unless you
forbid me... Noone could ever take your place, quit going in circles with me I
see right through it. Let the past be the past. You deserve it. Do it if only
for yourself." She squeezes your hand slightly in a reassuring squeeze.
Dyerek looks at Qoia.
Dyerek stiffens slightly as you near him, though his hand squeezes yours
reflexively. He recoils a bit, scooting further back onto the platform further.
"It is naught but the past. But not to learn from it would be foolish. What ..
is it you would have me let go of?"
Qoia says, "Let go of what from your past has hurt you... You can tell me of it
in your own time... but do not let it roin your future..
please."
Dyerek slips from his perch and rises, visibly the faintest bit
uncomfortable. "I must go..."
Qoia sighs, "Dyerek.... I.... I love you.."
Dyerek stares at you in shock.
Qoia blushes and withdraws slightly at her words.
Dyerek says, "We ... may speak again another time, perhaps. I .. do not nkow."
Dyerek glides away.
Qoia tells Dyerek: I... I'll be here when you need... Just call for me... for now
I'll return to Darmahk and aid kaydena with a forging... I'll
miss you as I always do..

The Raven {skiff-qoia}.
The Starburst {skiff-dyerek}.
Looking overboard at Skiff-dyerek you see:
Skiff owned by Dyerek
Expertly crafted from the hollowed-out half of a great oaktree, this proud
Elven vessel is elligantly carved, sanded to perfect smoothness, and painted
soft white . A gracefully pointed bow designed to cut swiftly through the
water tapers out and back to a beam measuring eight feet. Three times that
measures the distance from bow to stern, where a gleaming metal winch raises an
a large ankh that functions as the ship's anchor.
Across both sides of the craft, large starburst symbols are boldly displayed,
painted in forest greens and browns. Even the deck is polished to a shine and
sports a lush green rug, on which sits a small table surrounded by a treo of
three-legged stools. High above, the sail billows in the wind, a glorious
display of white canvas with a third green starburst, outlined in oak leaves.
A flagstaff attached to the main mast lists controls.

You see a male elf,
{A small bat, roughly the size of a child's hand rests comfortably in his
hair.}
A fine featured Elven youth who carries himself with the poise and pride of one
born into nobility. He tops six feet by an inch or two, and has skin that is
very pale, even by the standards of his people. He is without scar or blemish,
face furthering the impression of lavishly nourished upbringing. Deep blue eyes
gaze lazily out of an angular face that sports an aristocratic nose set on high
cheekbones. Slightly unsettling is the fact that in his rare smiles, his
canines are a bit too long to be natural, though not so long that they dwarf
their fellows and show as an obvious pair of fangs. His body is very thin, and
not especially muscular.
He has a lush cascade of golden blonde hair that falls to his mid-back in
waves.
He has deep blue eyes, often seeming blank and unfocused.
He is in perfect condition.
Wielding : Ocean fishing pole.
