Haaplo (prime)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Appearance
He is very tall. He appears to be very young. He has pupilless white eyes and smooth, koa-toned skin. He has long, layered onyx black hair. He has a chiseled, angular face, a slender, delicately flared nose and well-muscled shoulders and arms.
On each arm, you see matching tattoos in a double helix pattern with the arm at the center, a series of runes graces his koa-toned skin. Fine lines of ebon are formed with calligraphed precision, each filled with pristine, silvery inks that reflect the ambient light and take on a lustrous quality. Faendryl words of control dominate the runic structures on his left arm and Faendryl words of power dominate the runic structures on his right arm, though other languages can be glimpsed as the bands follow the curve of his forearms before ending at the elbows.
He is wearing a large segmented black opal necklace traced with silver runes, a cloakwing moth greatcloak of slate grey spidersilk, a small golden Paupers pin, an alum-bound spidersilk badge, a juniper buckskin bag tooled in a foliated design, a shadowy black vruul skin baldric inlaid with demon-carved shadow amethysts, a gridelin spidersilk backpack beaded with obsidian, some basilisk crest leathers with crimson and jet enruned scales, a studded black cuff, a long braided raw spidersilk belt with tasseled ends, a leather-tied ebon silk gem pouch, a grey spidersilk sack, some dark sharkskin trousers with twin rows of onyx buttons, a tooled leather thigh-sheath, and a pair of jet lizard skin riding boots latched at the ankles.
Open Sea Adventures
Initiation into warfare on the open seas was accomplished by hitching a ride with Admiral Peggyanne and her crew. However, Haaplo's knowledge of captaining a ship came from his experience as a deckhand for Admiral Nightpixie aboard her Man O' War, "The Silky Plum Madness," who gave him the responsibility of, well, everything!
After preparing "The Madness" for departing from port and joining her in the defeating the crew of the many enemy ships encountered, Haaplo was responsible for restocking the hold, assessing the damage of (and repairing) "The Madness" as well as reloading the cannons while she sat casually upon her appointed throne, patiently ordering her inexperienced deckhand with rigorous precision. Once the basics were mastered, she surprised the newly initiated would-be Captain by accompanying him to Chip N' Dwights at Kraken's Fall to purchase his very first ship, a sloop named "The Grim Stark White Fox."
