History
Ak'har is a bonded merchant of both the Merchantylers Guild, and the Seafarers Guild from Quozonia. He began his career as lowly deckhand on another merchant ship and sailed with them for several years. After he participated in the successful defence against a pirate ship, he was promoted to third mate, and given the second-in-command role on the captured pirate ship, The Silver Reefling. Later in that same voyage, the first-mate fell ill and succumbed to seaman's rot; a disfiguring disease that eats away at one's flesh.
The Silver Reefling was declared a cursed ship as more of the crew caught the rot, so she was cut loose with the sick and dying aboard, lest they infect the captain's own ship and crew. Ak'har himself lost his right ear, most of his cheek, and the sight of that eye to the disease, but still managed to sail into port with just three living souls aboard.
He wears a leather half mask, to hide the damage to his face, and still sails the Silver Reefling, having had all her stores burnt to cleanse her of the disease, followed by blessings by priests of Peolu.
He has had fair success despite his ship's reputation, mostly because he is willing to take nearly any legal cargo, sail thorough pirate waters without escort, and even take-runs in dangerous weather; believing that death already had its chance to claim him. Most of his crew are desperate, black-listed from other ships, or former criminals who cannot find work with lower risk. His first mate is Tavon Denish, the only other still living survivor of the rot whom made it to shore, the other two died a short while after making it to port.
Despite his reputation, the reputation of his ship, and that of his crew, he runs a clean operation. Ak'har is a respected member of both guilds, and has become something of a local legend in his home port of Sucosa.
