I bet half the children seeking him out are Luttins, because everyone knows that pirates are the toughest and strongest fighters anywhere. Nelson's older brothers are pirates, and Amycothe probably has heard one tale or another involving some ship that they've sailed or preyed upon. Even Nelson spent some time in his youth wanting to be a pirate. Pirates are the firemen and astronauts of Luttin-dom. He's a celebrity. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />[/sblock]Taviss Jarga Breland Wild Man/Ex-Soldier [Ringmereth] [sblock]Nelson probably resents Taviss a little bit, because it's hard to be a local hero when war heroes show up in the tavern. He probably thinks he's more than a little bit crazy too though, because he's got a bone to pick with the lizards and that's like toeing an ant's nest without shoes on mostly. Still, if he's gonna make himself an enemy of the lizard folk he's worth keeping an eye on, if only to make sure his fool killin' doesn't bring death upon the town and Nelson's family.[/sblock]Ari Osten Human Hexblade [stonegod][sblock]Ari is another foreigner with manners that seem dangerous to Seawell, though if he's been approached by Luttin pa's as a potential suitor he's probably seen as more stable (or at least wealthier) than Taviss. Luttins don't quit though, so he's doomed to marry one of Nelson's cousins eventually. The amorphous and powerful coven of Luttin wives probably has nagged every Luttin in the country to put in a word for this daughter or that, and Nelson's not immune to that. He could know Ari simply out of a sense of duty to warn him to leave Q'Barra while he still can, or he could be trying to convince Ari that five years isn't that long to wait for his little sister to grow up enough to get married. I suppose it depends on how rich Nelson thinks Ari might be.[/sblock]Garrick Yandson Human Rogue [Kralin Thornberry][sblock]Garrick's an outsider of a sorts, but he's been here long enough that he's establishing roots of the sort that Luttins understand. Plus he's got a larcenous streak, which makes him a more interesting person within the Luttin mentality than a lot of other kinds. It's also possible that one of the reasons Garrick travelled to Seawell in the first place could have been because his family did business with the Luttin clan in some way. If he's some sort of kin from another city then it would explain why he isn't being barraged by moon-eyed Luttin teenage girls.[/sblock]Jina Silversun Elf Swashbuckler [Rayex][sblock]At least Nelson is probably the best looking Luttin that she's watched grow up into adulthood and suffered the annoyance of being asked rude questions about the nature of elvish sexuality by. He probably wasn't serious either, just being annoying to see someone scowl. She might even have been Nelson's swordwork teacher. Thanks to her low wisdom score, Nelson probably thinks she's hopelessly naive about a lot of things. He might think it has something to do with her being a twin, because "twins are weird, add those ears into the mix n' they's gotta have some issues."[/sblock]Khalia ir’Indari Human Archivist [drothgery][sblock]Nelson probably isn't very impressed with Khalia and the feeling's likely mutual unless she's got a serious case of the jonesing for bad boys. On the other hand, if anyone's likely to be know odd bits of knowledge about the area and not-quite-useless trivia, it's Nelson. She might have been compelled to seek him out for those rare bits that complete the picture she's building in her head of the area already, and had to suffer through the agony of bargaining with him when all he wanted her to do is "show a little leg."[/sblock]Zan Changeling Wizard [Bront][sblock]Zan and Nelson probably have a lot in common, but Zan's been away long enough and is studious enough that they probably don't mix with each other much. Nelson and Zan might have a childhood history together, or at least overlapping childhood histories, because it would probably be REALLY HARD to be a changeling kid in Seawell without dozen Luttin malcontents always pestering you to join in on their adventures. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />[/sblock]</blockquote>
