<div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/7/7a/Amadaiya-avatar-picsay.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Amadaiya Solaris (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=160364.msg7720468#msg7720468)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Sailing the waters between Dras'Usarak and Esum, heading towards Esum.<br/><strong>Players nearby:</strong>Xanthe<br/><br/>They hadn't made port in 15 days. Naturally, some of the crew were craving dry land. Personally, she didn't think anybody who couldn't handle half a moon length on the water, deserved to be a pirate. Her crew was good though, one of the best on the seas. Her ship too. Most captains had a special attachment to their vessel. Amadaiya was no different. With its carvings and inlays, its fine craftsmanship, and well maintained condition, the Rising Sun was a work of art in her opinion. Which meant she was not happy about the damage it took in the storm a few days ago. With winds that blew with the fury of nature and waves that could engulf any ship, they were lucky to have come out of it at all. Though they lost a few good men overboard, and the ship was in desperate need of repair. They did what they could at sea, but some things needed anchoring and supplies to be done right. Which is why they were headed straight for the city of Esum. They would drop anchor and make port for a few days while they did repairs. It was a city she had been to before, they treated sailors well there. Though, they weren't exactly sailors. They were pirates, thieves, misfits and treasure hunters. They weren't bad exactly, at least not evil. But honor among pirates was a different kind of honor.<br/><br/>Amadaiya cracked her neck from side to side then downed the caramel colored spirits in her glass. She supposed it was time to go check on things. She stood from the rounded table in her quarters. Tying a strip of cloth around her thick black hair to hold it together in the black, she then picked up her hat and placed it upon her head before exiting her quarters.<br/><br/>The crew was busy at work, work that never stopped on a ship like this, especially a well kept one. Each with their respected job, it was all done with efficiency and minimum fights. People fantasized about being a pirate, running away and being free. But the truth was it was work, just like anything else.<br/><br/>She made her way up to the steering deck in order to get a better look. Her eyes scanned for her First Mate, Xanthe. She didn't see her at the moment. It was strange and unusual to have two women running a pirate crew people said. It wasn't natural. Amadaiya and her crew would just have to agree to disagree about that. Though she did have occasional conflict with a occasional crew member, or a passerby they picked up. However, she has proven herself worthy of the title Captain time after time.<br/><br/>"Land ho!" Yelled the man up high looking through a telescope. "We be making our way to Esum. She's far off. But we'll be there before sundown if the winds stay in our favor."<br/><br/>"Good!" Amadaiya replied, her voice commanding yet relaxed. "Adjust the sails and navigate us towards it."<br/><br/>"Aye, aye, Captin'" The man replied.
