Appearance
Rusty is a lean Tabaxi with russet-colored fur and darker cinnamon spots. He wears the crimson sash of his crew over bare shoulders. He is usually seen swaying rhythmically, even when standing still, with a small bamboo flask hanging from his belt.
Mannerisms
He constantly shifts his weight from paw to paw, giving him the appearance of being on a boat even when on solid land.
Personality
He is jovial, erratic, and seemingly perpetually dazed. He speaks in riddles and sea shanties, masking a razor-sharp tactical mind behind a facade of clumsiness.
Ideals
Freedom. The sea provides a life without walls, and my feet were never meant for a floor that doesn't tilt.
Bonds
Captain Valerius of the Crimson Current saved me from a watery grave, and I will die before I see his colors lowered.
Flaws
I am a sucker for a new vintage or an exotic spirit, often leading me to linger in dangerous ports.
Quirks
Background
Rusty was raised in a mountain monastery but found the silence unbearable. He fled to the coast and was recruited by the Crimson Current after he accidentally defeated three of their scouts in a barroom brawl while attempting to catch a falling bottle of rum. The crew discovered that his unpredictable, swaying movements were not just the result of drink, but a perfected style of combat that allowed him to navigate a storm-tossed deck better than any seasoned sailor. For years he has served as the Current's rigging specialist, using his cat-like agility and Drunken Technique to zip across the masts. He treats the ship as his temple and the crew as his troublesome pack of brothers. To him, the rhythm of the waves is the ultimate mantra, and every punch thrown is a note in a larger song.
