Captain Maelstrom is an old sailor and former herald of the late Lord Caspian and His Order. For a time, he lounged in retirement under the hospitality and protection of the Order of Neraeos in the Temple of the Sea. Recently, however, he has been spotted directing the flow of workers through the construction site in a hidden cove beneath the cliffs of Tasur'ke village, alongside Pytheos, the Architect. Within time, their objective was brought to light: Tasur'ke now boasts the first port in Sapience, complete with pier, shipyard, and harbour, from which adventurers and organisations may commission the construction of ships. He currently offers one design (that of the Thalassian seastrider), the prototype of which received the blessing of Himalia, one of the seven Offspring, herself. He has twin sons, Nolan and Nate, and a daughter, Natalie.

Maelstrom's Wares

Token of Charybdis for The harbour of Tasur'ke - 5000gp
Cut from dark walnut, this large, circular token is marked with a wave-like pattern across the thin band of its circumference. One face of the coin bears an engraved whirlpool, the lines of the vortex moving in swirls over the wood as the decorative maelstrom churns threateningly. Smooth and unpolished, the other side is unmarked but for the grain of the rich wood. A drawing resembling The harbour of Tasur'ke has been etched upon it.
