The Call of the Flames (Chapters 1 & 2)
Benjamin_Kaufman for Iriklas
A roguish Elvan smuggler and scoundrel, the pragmatic counterpart of Jenquo. Two gentlemen of fortune, far from their homelands who are both out for their tails. A charmer, a schemer, and an excellent fighter.
Voice: The Elvans of Hymerthral are Latin inspired--so Greek, Spanish, or other Mediterranean accents like Turkish can serve as inspiration (his voice will be the basis of the Elvan accent--at least his region). Charming and quick tongued, yet also deadpan, with more biting scorn and sarcasm mostly directed at his companions.
“We prefer “independent seafarers”. But I'm afraid for transport of the discreet variety, we'll need some additional fees for the many tolls, and guards, and for the risk me and my partner here put ourselves I’d say about … Twenty gold pieces?”
[Mounting suspicion of Taruk] “Yes, you are handy with these sails my friend. You Orcs are known for using long ships, and staying close to land—where you can see all the vulnerable villages on.”
[Have you been here] “I’ve been to many towns like this one, Aradjar, Huanhai—“ [But have you been to this one] “(Laughs) ... No. But you've seen one Pirate port you've seen them all, I just need to find the man in charge. Or woman.”
