History

Kolm Dar-Ukys was a member of the Iskandean navy for nearly a decade before a disagreement with the crown about his side activities led to his becoming an outlaw on the seas. His years of experience in the archipelago, and the open sea make him a dangerous opponent, and a man respected by his crew, many of whom served under him in the same navy that now hunts him.

Kolm has acquired the moniker of White Teeth for a necklace of shaloki teeth he wears about his neck. The legend is that he fell overboard during a storm, and was feared lost. however, when the storm abated he was found a day later, adrift upon the corpse of a shaloki which he had killed with his long-knife. The beast was twice as long as the Captain is tall. He kept the teeth as a trophy, and the feat was the topic of shanties for years.

Kolm commissioned Maako Yards for the design and construction of his current ship, The Black Swine in 396 YG, and took her to sea for the first time in 397 YG.
