Appearance:
Scraygil is a stoat of a medium build and a mean lot in life. His fur is a dark cocoa brown color, though its really hard to tell under all the grime. He has a short brushy tail that is slightly lighter in color than the rest of him, and it is tipped with black fur. His ears are also tipped in black fur, and he has a long oval of yellowish-brown fur on his chest and throat. His eyes are a plain, muddy brown. His nose is black as well as the edges of his eyes. His teeth are yellowed, but they are all present. He dresses in an orange-brown jerkin that comes down roughly to his knees, and also baggy black pantaloons. He wears crudely made leather gauntlets and has a single brass tailring.Belongings:
Aside from his clothing and tailring he owns nothing aside from a chipped and pitted cutlass which he scavenged from the aftermath of a searat raid.Job or Position:
Sometimes a robber, sometimes a begger; it all depends on how desperate he is.Personality:
Scraygil is as tough and bitter as a deep-rooted weed. He steals to survive, but doesn't particularly enjoy it. He'd prefer to be alone most of the time, whether it's to avoid being scolded for his deeds or to avoid his band of followers is unknown to all except him. It is likely that the answer is both. Scraygil is strongly against slavery, but is extremely lax in his moral code regarding "borrowing" from the more fortunate or "gathering" vegetables from another creature's field.History and Background Information:
Born on a seadeck in the port of Sampetra, Scraygil didn't have a good start. His father was a Corsair aboard the one-masted coast-raiding vessel Warfinder. He and his mother were dragged along on a raid to the north coast, but on the way the stoatbabe became friends with two of the ship's oarslaves, a fieldmouse and a hedgehog. Halfway to their destination, the Warfinder was ambushed by the rival pirate vessel Seabludd. The searats came aboard and ended up killing both Scraygil's father and mother along with almost all the crew. Those few who were not slain were to be slaves for the searat crew of the Seabludd. Only a week after Scraygil was put into chains the Seabludd reaped the whirlwind it had brought upon itself: A squadron of Long Patrol came across it as it went to the River Moss outlet to take in fresh water. The hares pincushioned the vessel thouroughly with flaming arrow, scuttling the ship. Scraygil escaped by clinging to a dead searat as it floated about in the spray.Any other details:
Eventually he reached the rocky shores north of the River Moss and started out on a new life for himself. Along his journeys he accumulated a small band of four beside himself, all but one stoats like himself(the other is a waterat). Together he and the four down and out creatures roam the northwest countryside, looking for salvage and vittles.
