Bertrand

Handing over a pair of silver coins, Bertrand takes up the pen and signs his name with a flourish. "A pleasant day to you lad," he says taking the time to look down his own noes at the self-important fellow.
 

Amster

With a sigh that hints of impatience the young man says "Very well that will be 5 copper pieces...Make your Mark" and turns the book around to Anniston
 

Vadric pays the man a silver and signs his name in the book. He then walks past the man toward the town proper.
 

Anniston pays the fee and carefully writes "Anniston" in the book. As he is writing, he scans up the ledger to see if anyone else from the ship has left and what they might have declared (or how much they paid, if it is an unexpectedly large amount).

He appears dressed in pilgrim's robes with an iron holy symbol of the Light, a rope belt, and sturdy boots. His belt-pouch is tucked well away, against his skin. He does not carry any other items into town. The rest of his equipment is stowed in his foot locker below decks.
 


Finnian steps up and writes his name, paying the fee.

"Like Sir Anniston here, I have nothing to declare unless you count these two small weapons I carry for protection. I'm merely going ashore to stretch my legs and purchase some small supplies. I intend to return to the ship well before dawn."
 

Vadric half-turns back at Finnian's words and offers his companion a wink and a smile. "Ha, after a few bottles of the local vintage, you may find that easier said than done!
 

Finnian claps Vadric on the shoulder turning him back towards the customs man.

"My hollow leg hasn't lead me astray yet. So the only thing to worry about is any ruffians that may try to keep me from the ship. And I imagine that is what part of these customs fees are for. To pay guards to keep the port safe. Am I right, sir?"
 

Jaroth

Jaroth steps off the cutter and announces himself with a disarming smile. "I am Jaroth Urkas of the Western Star. I have no goods or trade to declare. I merely wish to experience your fine city in the short time given me."
