	During his extended travels and later his tenure as pirate captain Silver Cloud has visited almost every seaport in the East, from Cherak to Celeren and from Lookshy (''very'' carefully) to Greyfalls. And where he hasn't been himself he has heard stories. It's a matter of pride, that wherever he goes he always knows someone who knows a guy ... Smugglers, fences, crimelords, pirates - he never has trouble finding the right partner for a shady deal or a bit of information.

	''~~Description~~ and ~~first impression goes here~~''		''A young man stands proudly at the bow of the 'Stormdriven' clad in ornate royal blue and gold brocade. From under his tricorn hat, which he is rarely seen without, his long black hair falls over his shoulders in an artful mess. Blue eyes shine with alarming intensity from his sunburnt face, a challenge to anyone who would doubt his authority on this ship or otherwise. In unobserved moments there sometimes is a haunted expression in them, but with smooth certainty Cloud deflects any and all questions. Those who approach him with respect, be it as friend or foe, are treated in kind and find in him an honorable man, whose word is solid and whose friendship will last. On the other hand those who are disrespectful quickly find themselves staring into the long barrel of the revolver he always keeps at his side. It's only in dealings with the Dead that Cloud's composure shows cracks. A hateful light comes into his eyes and his language becomes terse. In moments of stress his right hand may even unconsciously stray towards his gun.''

	When Cloud accepted Heaven's offer and left his pirate days behind, the most loyal of his crew followed. As his first mate put it: "It's easy for a soldier to go back home and become a guardsman or bodyguard. For those of us in the piracy business it's usually a little harder." Now instead of the heavily armed pirate cruiser 'Black Sky' Cloud commands the single-masted 'Stormdriven', a sleek and fast ship that even his small crew of five can handle.<br>		When Cloud accepted Heaven's offer and left his pirate days behind, the most loyal of his crew followed.

	Through clever negotiating Cloud has managed to get a quite favorable contract from his heavenly employers. Having someone who can easily transport an entire group of agents on his ship and can invoke the diplomatic immunity of the Eclipse Caste on their behalf is very useful after all ... Of course, the truth is also, that without the backing of heavenly Ambrosia Cloud could hardly maintain ship and crew (without resorting to less than legal activities, that is), much less the expensive alchemical ammunitions for his gun. Buying the 'Stormdriven' has put quite a dent in his finances as well. As a result the crafty Lawgiver is always on the lookout for opportunities to make a quick profit or put cunning schemes in action to milk the gullible.
