You were a zee-captain. | ||
---|---|---|
It was a hard life, and often a short one, but you made your mark. What were you known for? | ||
You smuggled | You explored | You bought and you sold |
Her Majesty's navy had a great many opinions on what should and shouldn't be sold in her territories. Your own opinions were rather different.
You ran souls and sunlight to Gaider's Mourn and the Isle of Cats. You sailed, lampless, through the concealing dark. You lurked in hidden coves while the excisemen passed by.
|
Yours were far, lonely journeys. You endured nameless hardships. You rallied your crew in the face of utmost uncertainty.
You sought the edges of maps and sailed beyond them, into unknown domains where everything you knew proved false. What new discoveries might the sky hold for you?
|
You were a merchant. A precarious life, lived on the knife-edge between fortune and ruin.
It took a keen mind to coax a profit from the hungry waters, and keener eyes to spot the pirates and monsters drawn to your precious cargo. After a good haul, you made sure to enjoy the finer things.
