Rogue’s Gallery: Brahm the Venturer

Brahm is tall and broad shouldered like most of his kin. He keeps his chest and back uncovered so as to better display the labyrinthine branding that patterns his back and shoulders. He greets everyone he meets with a practiced disinterest but becomes talkative as he grows more comfortable with them.

Seer of the Middle Sea. Brahm became familiar with ocean travel at a young age. After becoming injured in a fierce battle against pirates off Raguza, he left his parents’ employ aboard the Glory of Gold and convalesced with his grandmother in Triolo. While there, he began to experience strange visions while he was engrossed in watching the merchants and their patrons who lived and worked in the neighborhood. When he discussed his new ability with his grandmother, she shared his family legacy with him and guided him through interpreting his visions. When he returned to the ocean, as a mate aboard the pirate-hunting brigantine Falcon’s Hunt, he immersed himself in his work. He has gained a reputation as a skilled shipboard battler and sailor. When he is ashore, Brahm will tell someone their fortune in exchange for a drink. His visions, and their interpretations, are startlingly accurate.

Characteristics

Personality Trait. While I enjoy sharing my insights, I never give them away for free.

Ideal. Freedom. Knowledge of what may come allows for greater choice.

Bond. My grandmother passed a token to me when she explained our gift of the sight. It’s my most prized possession.

Flaw. I saw a truth once that I refused to speak and tragedy was the result. It haunts me to this day.
