Well, you're about to have a first mate with a similar outlook. ^_^

8-fingered Holler (human male), short of stature, short of temper, shaved his head completely at the onset of premature gray hair. Stocky, strong, fiercely loyal to his crewmates and usually gets into barfights every shoreleave because of some perceived insult against him, his mother, his crewmates or the ship he served on. Proud, prickly and with a fondness for black humor.

Peter "Girly" Lavelle, so named for his unblemished face, androgynous features, long golden locks all of which he takes pains to keep in as good order as possible at sea and a penchant for wooing just about every reasonably attractive female which *might* be interested. Reliable, never complains about hard work and is good in a fight. Turns out to be too shallow to bond much with other crewmates though, never new stories or interesting topics of conversation with him, but at least he plays cards and instruments and can sing well enough.

Great, you have 9 crew mates sort of fleshed out now, I'm happy to start there and add more as we go!

If you want to make up more, go ahead. We certainly need a kobold or goblin crew member! Or some big dumb Half Ogre! :)

Still need roles officically picked

So we need some jobs filled by the PCs

Captain - Rod
First Mate - Seroneth
Man-At-Arms - Xie

Carpenter, Quartermaster, Master Gunner, Chaplain, Navigator

Pick one, we can fill the rest withe NPCs

Cook - Henric
Cooper - Yardarm
Man-At-Arm's Mate - Crimson
Chaplain's Mate - Malvina

You have Rosie that can take on a job as well as a higher ranking NPC

I think we could make Rosie quartermaster. What would Meri like to do? Navigator? Sounds good for someone with an affinity to the sea and high int (I think). Or something else?

Not sure what Flavinia's suited for.

I guess Xie could double as Chaplain. Seroneth or Rod could be helmsman/woman. Maybe Flavinia or Meri could be Quartermaster or Navigator?

What are important for these roles? Meri doesn't have Geography or Survival or Appraise.

What does she have? With good wisdom and prof. sailor, she could also be helms-woman.

Would the angel sitting on Vinnie's shoulder stand up to jump up and down and shout really, really loudly "Hey! That's Evil!" if she were about to listen to the horned fellow whispering "Cannibals! Kill!" in her ear?

But these ones did eat Locatah, no?
