Message: <blockquote data-quote="A'koss" data-source="post: 2977392" data-attributes="member: 840">Well, if everyone else is going to do it... ;-)Valin KholgardTo say that the sea is in Valin's blood is very likely not far from the truth. For every third or forth generation the house of Kholgard has seen a son or daughter born with an unusual aptitute (or perhaps more accurately, adaptation) for the sea. It has always been seen as a mixed blessing however as every Kholgard who has possessed this rare trait has an unwavering predilection to attract trouble in a manner similar to that of otyughs attracting flies or dragons and gold-lusting adventurers...Valin certainly did not need much encouragement to seek his fortune far from the shores of the Wild Coast where he was raised. Since he was old enough to scrub a ship deck, Valin has always had one eye on the distant horizon, sailing with both merchant and mercenary warships to any port he had not yet seen. Valin developed a wide variety of useful skills growing up in seedy port towns and aboard ship with questionably motivated captains. Only Valin's skill in getting out of trouble exceeded his in finding it, but he wouldn't have it any other way. "Who wants a dull life anyway...?"As he grew older he developed a keen love of maps and cartography and in recent years began training as a ship's pilot. Over the last year Valin has kept his own rutter (which he values almost as much as his own life) and detailed journal of his travels (might be an interesting RP element in this game?). Valin's eye is still on the distant horizon and desires to one day pilot-captain the single greatest ship on the sea and fill in a few of those blanks still left on the map...</blockquote>
