    Delusional

    Connoisseur of Hallucinations
    General

    Name: Finn H. Everswyck
    Gender: Male
    Age: 29
    Birth Place: Everswyck Farms, a sky island just outside of the sky city-state of Tarona, Vyrelis
    Current Residence: Aboard the HMS Ithacus
    Class: Airship Captain
    Alignment: Chaotic Good

    Appearance

    Finn is a rather tall individual, standing at around 6'0". He is slender, but has developed some muscles from maintaining an airship. His hair is a dark brown, and relatively short. His eyes are a deep blue, and his skin is decently tanned from his exposure to the sun without the cover that clouds offer.

    Image is not mine, and is not 100% accurate to Finn's actual appearance. It is only a visual aid.

    Personality

    Finn is a very outgoing person. He enjoys making friends, and socializing with others. This mostly comes from being isolated in the air most of his life with only his crew, so when he does reach a port, he likes to head out into the city and meet new people. Now don't get me wrong, he loves his crew, and his crew loves him, but Finn enjoys getting out when he can. However, Finn is slightly immature in the sense that he is quick to anger, and that anger can easily control him and he finds himself making impulse decisions out of that anger. Finn loves to fly, in fact, Finn loves to take risks. But, as per usual, taking risks always comes with consequences, and Finn finds himself in bad situations due to risk-taking more than often, especially with his superiors.

    Equipment

    Apparel: Very similar to above image, minus some of the extra cloths and such. He prefers to wear lightweight, long sleeved shirts and long pants in order to protect his skin from the unforgiving sun. In order to cover as much skin as possible, he also tends to wear a thin scarf or cloth around his neck, and will, or occasion, cover much of his face with a cloth as well. This cloth is namely for travel in high wind speeds, inclement weather, or just more protection from the sun on particularly hot days. Finn is also in possession of high tech goggles, capable of not only protecting his eyes from the wind and particles in the air but also have the ability to zoom in, similar to binoculars. These goggles (very similar in looks to the photo) are made out of a light brown leather and the machinery on the lens is a dark copper.

    Weapon Choice: In combat, Finn uses a custom rifle he crafted himself using spare machinery from airship repairs, and dual katanas for close range combat. His rifle is tuned to fire small circular pellets with deadly precision, very different from other weapons of the age. His aim is rather good, and his skills with his swords are decent as well for his age.

    Once again, these images are not mine. Also, they are just references to how the rifle would look like. There's no way in hell I'm tryna describe a rifle like that.

    History

    Finn was born on a sky farm to Samuel and Lenore Everswyck. His family was a family of farmers, who have spent generations living on and maintaining their farm - Everswyck Farms (creative I know). Finn, however, had aspirations to be something greater than a simple farmer ever since his young childhood - despite objections from his parents. Him and his other siblings, of which he had three - one brother, Jaime Everswyck, and two twin sisters, Eva and Marilyn Everswyck, worked on the farms with their father since childhood.

    That was, until Finn reached age 16, and decided to make a life-changing decision. When his father was about to head off on the family airship (or should I say airboat - it was small) to make his regular trip into the city-state of Tarona to sell produce and purchase supplies, Finn secretly stowed away in the cargo hold as his father left for the 'mainland'. Once arriving after the awfully hot and cramped ride, he ran off into the city-state of Tarona, unsure of what he was doing.

    Soon Finn found a place to work - a huge factory that assembles parts that went into building airships. He labored in that factory for several years, earning a steady wage of silver, of which he saved up. Eventually, when Finn was 19, he was taking a scenic detour through Tarona to the inn where he had taken up residence, rent free (he got busy with the innkeeper). He passed by the grand docks of Tarona where he noticed a man on the docks, shouting. Finn approached him to learn that he was trying to recruit new crew members for a merchant vessel, the HMS Ithacus. Finn, wanting to fly his entire life, eagerly joined up with the crew of the Ithacus.

    After several years of sailing all across the skies of Vyrelis, visiting ports in Edon to city-states as distant as Feligno and Rhorv, Finn begin to rise through the ranks of the crew. It seemed like he was a natural airman, and he was.

    After the captain of the Ithacus died of old age, Finn was appointed captain of the HMS Ithacus through a unanimous crew vote. He gladly accepted the position, and finally, on Finn's 24th name day, he had done it - reached his dreams.

    Many years Finn commanded the Ithacus all across Vyrelis, learning the skies like the back of his hand. However, at the same time, concerning news was arising all across the region that chaos had erupted on the Ground World, and chaos as colossal as such would disturb the magical equilibrium that held the sky islands of Vyrelis is place.

    The HMS Ithacus was re-commissioned as a vessel of war and sent down to the Ground World among thousands of others to do what they could to put an end to the conflict and restore the equilibrium and save Vyrelis. Finn departed for the Ground World when he was 29, and appointed Admiral of the Third Royal Vyrelian Fleet.

    Name: Lairah Ruuz
    Nicknames: "The Terror of the North"/"Draugr of the Sea"/"The Sea Wraith"
    Race: Redguard
    Class: Twin swords
    Gender: Female
    Looks: Leathery brown skin as many Redguards. She has long brown hair which she ties in a knot and hides under her turban. She is shorter than many, about 5"4 but it had no affect on her fearful reputation. Her muscular appearance is hidden under her clothes.
    Bio: Lairah was a girl born at sea in 180 of the fourth Era. Her mother was pregnant and with father at sea. Unlike many tragic stories, her mother survived the childbirth. She was told tales of how her father fought in the Great war and helped the Redguards fight back the Dominion. She was inspired and wanted to follow in her unmet grandfather's footsteps. Like many children, Lairah was taught to fight and live at sea. She also developed a funny disease called, 'Land-sickness' which was very amusing for her father. She made a wondrous sailor and a prodigy as she mastered her training at a young age of fourteen. When the rebellion started, her parents were killed when they were travelling with Imperial soldiers across Skyrim. Lairah swore to avenge them by giving the Imperials, Navy support during the war. She helped the Empire install control in Dawnstar and Winterhold by seizing the city. She is widely known by many names after she destroyed the port of Windhelm and raided the city, leaving it for the main army under General Tullius to capture. The High Queen was grateful for this act and gave the Redguard a position in the Navy. Soon in 210 she became the Admiral of the Navy.
    Apparel: She carries two enchanted blade which belonged to her father. Her scimitar Flame belonged to her father which does vicious Fire damage and her other scimitar Frost belonged to her mother does painful Frost damage to her enemies. She stripped Ulfric naked and hung his body above the throne after the general was done with him. She also put Galmar in a funny position on the table.
     

    Lady Redpool the Unlifer

    Pyro, Spirits Connoisseur, and Soulless Anarchist
    Name: Draeth
    Race: High Elf
    Gender: Male
    Age: 110ish
    Class: Blademaster(One handed, light armor, block)
    Equipment: Full elven armor with no helmet and a glass sword
    Personality: Draeth is a cynical, but fun loving man who can think of no better life than fighting battles by day, and spending his nights drinking and bedding young elvin ladies. He is also HIGHLY competitive and a gambling man when it suits his mood.
    Bio: Draeth was born to a family that had no talent in magic. In high elf society, this left him as an outcast, a cripple of sorts. When the Thalmor wanted him to go and fight and die against the empire, he took his family sword and let decades of anger loose on the imperial armies. Becoming well known for his combat prowess and mind for tactics, he quickly rose through the ranks. He now sits as the Grand Marshal but has no interest to stay at the rear of a battle like other officers, he leads his men in every sense of the word. Though he truly has no love for the Thalmor, he has no love for anyone, and figured he might as well serve his own kind, though he hates magic in all forms.
