Characters
Oliver Quick
Oliver Quick grew up an orphan in the dangerous Terrabarco district in Agua Azul on Crail. He's roguishly handsome with a lean athletic build. Never able to afford for a good cut of blackcotton, he proudly struts without cape, keeping his shirt laces agape. Growing up on the streets and making games of practical jokes on the neighborhood Falcons, he rubbed shoulders with many seedy elements, learning skills of fencing illicit goods and legerdemain. Soon, becoming quite adept in illegal activities, he was forced to join one of the most dangerous and villainous Fighting Crows gang, responsible for some pretty galling acts.
At this point, the street urchin made a plan to leave The City for good. He knew he wouldn't last long and wanted no part in the Crows' nefarious deeds. He met with one Janos Largemountain, a dishonorable merchant out of Viridia. Over a hand of poker, Oliver won Janos' sky-junk, a shabby ship called The Lonely Buzzard. Hastily assembling a crew of scoundrels and misfits, he immediately set sail.
