[QUOTE="ErichDragon, post: 887553, member: 2719"] Ecgthow immedietly takes to the routine of a sailor on board a longship. He takes more than his alloted time at the oars, his strength and conditioning seeming unexhaustable. While on board he does not wear his armor, although he keeps his small axes on his person and his longsword always within a few feet of him. He is well prepared for the chill winds aboard an open boat and seems unaffected by them. He is intimately familiar with the operation of a ship such as this and can pitch in for any task that he is asked to perform. While taking his shift at the oars or idling, he talks extensively with the other sailors as they must have many shared experiences in common. Those who are not Northmen or acquainted with the culture may find him a bit bloodthirsty or piratical, however, his opinions are not uncommon among his people. He is considered rather honorable for a Viking! He doesn't take part in many discussions about religion, being convinced that his Gods are paramount, and his life has been predetermined by the fates. The only way to reach Valhalla is to meet that life with courage and bravery, and die with his sword in his hand and valor in his heart. Ecgthow will spend some time gently hinting to Captain Tolstoy and Agrinion that, "...it wouldn't hurt to raid a village or two, just to relieve the boredom." After a day or two of observing Glaucon, Ecgthow seems to develop some sense of respect for the Greek's seamanship, but it is grudging at best. OOC: 6 GP spent on Rations and Mead. [/QUOTE]
