Species
Dwarf
Appearance
Broad-shouldered and compact like a ship's anchor, Bram moves with the precise economy of a man who has spent decades climbing rigging. His shaved scalp reflects the sun in a dull sheen. A thick beard, flecked with gray, fans from his jaw in coarse braids bound with strips of sailcloth. His left hand is missing the index and middle fingers, the stumps wrapped with neat leather. The scarred skin along his forearms carries the salt-gray patina of wind and weather. He wears a leather harness threaded with coil of rope and an array of knots tied into the straps. Unexpectedly, he keeps a small, finely tooled silver rosary tucked beneath his shirt, the beads polished smooth from years of rubbing, a relic at odds with his superstitious sea-bluntness.
“Gruff, clipped, frequently uses nautical terms and old sea proverbs.”

Beard braided with strips of sailcloth
Small silver rosary hidden under his shirt
Voice
“Low, gravelly, and rumbling with the cadence of a sea shanty when he relaxes”
Clothing
Heavy work leathers layered over a coarse linen shirt, a rope harness with knots secured, knee-locked boots with tarred soles, and a wide belt that carries the boatswain's whistle, a hooked boarding tool, and small pouches for shims and tinder. He sometimes ties a tattered strip of blue cloth around his wrist as a charm.
Body Language
Bram plants his feet wide and favors direct, economical gestures. He runs his thumb along rope braids when thinking and straightens a deckhand's collar with a fingertip that smells faintly of tar.
