Captain Edward "Metal" Roberts

Race
Warforged Swashbuckler/Dread Pirate, Male personality
Hometown
Mechanus
Alignment
Chaotic Good
Notable quote
"Fortunately, I have this eyepatch that I've never used before."

--

Edward is one of the first Warforged sent Aeus by Karn, the Golem God. Despite his loud and bombastic manner, the Captain values peace and and a quiet lifestyle more than anything else, which is why he chose a career as an 'honest' Free Trader rather than an adventurer. Unfortunately, his chaotic nature, horribly bad luck, abysmal memory, and tendency to take the highest-paying and thus most dangerous jobs conspire to heap trouble on him wherever he goes. His sense of justice, although strong, is rarely aroused.

Iji Ranson

Race
Human Factotum, Male
Hometown
Armada
Alignment
True Neutral
Notable quote
"You don't pay me enough for this shit, cap'n,"

--

An Armadan through and through, Iji prides himself on adapting to new situations, most of which are the Captain's fault. He joined was drafted on to Metal's crew after flaunting his talent at repairing and rigging complex machinery. He serves as chief engineer / captain's bitch, and normally stays on the ship if the crew goes on a job.

Saphra Connell

Race
Aasimar Paladin/Archivist, female
Hometown
Armada
Alignment
Lawful Good
Notable quote
". . ."

--

A withdrawn religious scholar imprisoned and experimented upon by Yxlith. Every day of her incarceration, she prayed to Akroma to grant her release. Over time, this prayer, in combination with the illithid foolishly allowing Saphra to browse the arcane library, granted her enough power to summon a Justice Archon. Escape was swift and effortless. Since joining the crew of the Odyssey at the Captain's insistence, Saphra, although still reticent, has began to emerge from her shell and embrace her destiny as a Paladin of Akroma, the Angel of Wrath.

Whiskers

Race
Catfolk Expert/Bard, male
Hometown
Armada
Alignment
True Neutral
Notable quote
"Everyone's problems would be solved if they just sat down and had a drink."

--

Known as "The Ears of Armada", Whiskers owns and manages a self-titled tavern in the heart of the city. He serves fair-priced food and drink from every corner of the world, and even a few choice goods from off-plane. It is said he hears every rumor passed, every word of gossip spoken, and that he can pass that knowledge on. . .for a price.
It is also said that Whiskers himself used to be an adventurer in his glory days, that he now lives vicariously though the adventurers that now pour in and out of his establishment, and that every once in a while, he dusts off his flute and plays the songs of old. . .

Rakuku "Rooky" Illwing

Race
kenku rogue/assassin, male
Hometown
Armada
Alignment
Neutral Evil
Notable quote
"Don't cross a kenku. We're watching."

--

Leader of a considerable nest of kenku, the paranoid Rakuku is the leader of both the assassin's guild and a massive illegal trading enterprise. He believes that he embodies the "true" face of Armada: sly, cruel and willing to provide nearly any service if the price is right. He provides up-and-coming adventurers with their first jobs, and is owed many debts across the world. He has spies everywhere. He is watching.

Andre Galette

Race
hobgoblin crusader, male
Hometown
Armada
Alignment
Lawful good
Notable quote
"Armada may be ugly, but she's mine, and I will protect her."

--

Standing just over seven feet tall, Andre is a menacing figure. Garbed in heavy mithral armor, he patrols the shadiest districts of Armada, making sure the Unspoken Law is upheld. Despite his menacing snarl the hobgoblin has a reputation for mercy, and would much rather frighten then injure his opponents. He leads the town guard and the standing militia.

Admiral Eblis O'Donnell

Race
wizard/swashbuckler, male
Hometown
Annir
Alignment
Chaotic neutral
Notable quote
"Metal, what have you gotten yourself into now?"

--

Eblis is the leader of Armada's aerial navy, and once commanded the mightiest ship in the skies, The Indomitable. Unfortunately, the Indomitable was recently dominated and sank by a kobold ship, The Ire of kurtulmak. Eblis was quite the swashbuckler back in his prime, but now dabbles mostly in spellcraft.

Lunk

Race
warforged fighter/expert, male personality
Hometown
Mechanus
Alignment
True Neutral
Notable quote
". . .I can fix that!"

--

Lunk, another warforged sent to Aeus by Karn, has developed a great passion for the building and rebuilding of airships and constructs. He says it brings him closer to understanding his own origins, and the possibility of altering the warforged race for the better. His current project is the mass production of gith-built gate-engines. He can always be found below Armada, in the cavernous dry-dock.
