Aron St.Beth

Aron's head made solid contact against his captor’s nose- so solid, in fact, that it left his ears ringing. The man recoiled with a grunt, and Aron attempted to escape from his loosened grip. As he shouldered his way out, he had time enough to realize that he had no idea where he was in relation to the cabin door before a second, much rougher set of hands seized his arms.

“Nice job, maybe he won’t be able to flirt as much with a broken nose,” said a smoothly accented female voice from behind Aron. “Unfortunately, you just made this quite a bit harder for yourself.” Her statement was punctuated by a burning sensation across Aron’s wrists, which he realized were the result of ropes now binding his hands behind his back.

“Alright then, get moving, pirate scum,” said the man, “it’s time for you to learn the hempen jig.” With the pressure of a blade at his back, Aron allowed himself to be guided out of his room. As he climbed the stairs to the main deck, he realized that he didn’t hear anyone else besides his two captors. Relief washed over him at the thought that the rest of the crew had managed to escape, quickly followed by a darker thought- what if he was simply the last one they were bringing out?

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Aron is very healthy, and surprisingly strong for his meek countenance. He's stocky, but not buff, and generally carries himself in a slouched, slight manner.

Facial Features

Jawline is strong but soft, nose is medium and rounded. Large eyebrows, generally look sad/surprised. Large cheeks, small forehead.

Physical quirks

Right handed, nervous but very steady. Walks with a slouch and small strides, though this drops when he's under duress. Fairly clumsy. Horrible liar, always scratches the back of his neck or wrings his hands; an open book in every sense.

Specialized Equipment

Not very proficient in any weapon, although he owns a saber and a knife. Very adept at calligraphy, and keeps a set of pens and inks in his berth. Decent enough at navigation and cartography.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Aron has lived a quiet life, which is honestly pretty suitable to him. He was born into a nondescript family in the nondescript island town of Seavale, from which he's never journeyed far. He's never gone out of his way to seek adventure, as he prefers to feel at home. He feels very connected to his family, which made it even more painful when his brother left home to join a pirate crew. For the next three years, Aron struggled to find a place for himself: he first tried smithing with his father, but quickly changed course and attempted to become a cartographer. Failing at this due to his lack of training, he took up a position as the keeper of the Seavale Lighthouse. Looking out at sea for hours at a time made him realize that his brother was out there, seeing new things and forging a place for himself in the world. This encouraged Aron to take the biggest leap of his life and sign on to Nathanael St.Beth's crew the next time he came to port.

Aron is essentially neutral good. He's generally opposed to undue violence, but he knows it can sometimes be necessary. Being as passive as he is, he will generally go with the flow unless it strongly offends his sense of right.

Taboos

Killing other than self defense, drinking to excess. (He really is a terrible pirate).

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Aron wants to find a place for himself, as he's always ever just felt lost. Though he cares for others, he doesn't consider himself a particularly good caretaker, and he's trying to behave more selfishly in the hopes that he'll make himself fit in.

Good at listening & getting people to talk (whether he wants it or not). Godawful at fighting, dealing with conflict, and making decisions.

Likes & Dislikes
