CHARACTER INFO

Character: Faris Scherwiz
Canon: Postgame
Armada: Corsair

About: Born a princess, lost at sea, raised as a pirate man, Faris became the youngest-ever captain after befriending the sea dragon Syldra. Then a princess and her two goofy friends tried to steal his ship, a shattered crystal picked him as one of its champions, and they all proceeded to do... a really, really bad job of protecting the crystals. But they got there in the end!!

As a person, Faris is really bad at emotions that are not directly related to being a pirate. He's gotten a little better at it, but his expressions of sentiment are still indirect and plausibly deniable, to say the least. It's easier to get close to him by doing some kind of mission or battle together.

Although Faris is a dyed-in-the-wool pirate, hanging around with his long-lost sister and the other Light Warriors has made him less comfortable with some of the morally worse aspects of the lifestyle, like kidnapping hostages for ransom and whatnot. He also despises poaching and otherwise screwing around with ecology for personal gain.


PLANS

General: Faris almost got killed by Garuda last month, which was something of a wake-up call because he can't think of that many people who would have his back. He's actually going to have to put in some more WORK to make FRIENDS and as terrifying unappealing as the thought of going out and... getting to know people... with feelings... is, he's going to have to do it.

Also (and relatedly, tbh) Faris wants a ship. If your character also cares about the environment and doesn't like bounties that involve killing / capturing / harvesting things purely for profit, you'll probably be a good fit for his crew. And he just likes gathering animals around him, so it's also good for animal lovers! Win-win.
MANTA Board:
Life in color: I love this kind of thing even if Faris wouldn't. LET'S GET OUT OF THE SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICIXPIALIDOCIOUS PAINTING TOGETHER.
Dead Kraken Island: Want to do a great escape with Faris? He's going to be looking for Blackheart, dammit.
Starships: Faris already knows how to do celestial navigation so he'll be doing this one quite eagerly. If you want someone to teach your character how it works, hit him up.
Event: I will probably be doing tagouts because Faris' instincts for Fancy Social Stuff are to try and hide from it.

Etc.: I'll be visiting my parents next week but I'll still be tagging and such!
