Name: Scar Age: Mid-twenties Occupation: Pirate Captain Residence: The seven seas yaharr (His ship the Bamboat) Physical characteristics: Tall, broad-shouldered, strong. Tanned skin marred with innumerable scars. Long, straight brown hair. Strong face and jawline, dark eyebrows and lashes. Bright, piercing green eyes. Sports traditional pirate attire- white shirts, scarves as belts, worn trousers and boots. Does also own a comically large pirate hat Strengths: Physically strong and very adept as a sailor and as a fighter. Commanding and authoritative, but not in a dictatorial fashion- rather, he is fully trusted by his crew and is therefore treated with respect. Great at quick thinking and spur-of-the-moment decisions. Able to function well under pressure. Very charismatic. Secretly a massive sweetheart, but nobody knows that Weaknesses: Relaxing and being true self around others. Rather obsessive once set on something. Struggles massively with personal communication (although he is great at talking with crew and others on a surface level, he cannot truly communicate emotions or other like things) Relationships: Best mate Jim (the quartermaster on the ship) who he's sailed with for years. Probably the most solid relationship he has. Great banter between the two, can rely on each other very solidly Sailingmaster Liz: Known for years as well, although she has slowly worked her way up the crew. Sarcastic and humorous relationship. Again, would trust (and have trusted) each other with their lives
idk how to use forum pictures so here you go Overall, the pictures have a rather dark, stormy vibe. This mirrors the opening scene of the book (which occurs during a storm) and also people's general first impressions of the guy as a fearsome pirate. The ship is rather self-explanatory- that's the general image of the galleon ship that the Bamboat is. The next painting of a face with a green eye is meant to reflect how his green eyes are probably his most distinctive feature; his "brand", almost. I also very much liked the painting style and thought it was reminiscent of the fantasy-adjacent world he lives in! The stormy seas and ship rigging are also there to provide the idea of a dark, menacing environment. The trees in the storm link to the green of his eyes, whilst also alluding to his backstory, the first scene of the story, and his final destination. The art in the middle is mainly to portray his other iconic feature, his scarred skin. On the right, the gold jewelry and pearls represent his job, piracy. The people cheering in the bottom left are meant to demonstrate his way with his crew- he is followed passionately and is a great leader. Once more, there's a stormy sea photo for the vibes, and finally the photo of pirate attire. I thought this particular outfit would be similar to what he wears, as he's very "extra".
