Russ

Russ has the appearance of a very large Petaran man, with rough features that seem almost hewn from raw onyx. He complements this with loose-fitting Petaran garb that covers as much of his body as he can manage.

He has worked for some time in the <insert name here> area, although his precise location moves with his work. He generally contracts as a bodyguard, sailor, or hunter, and specializes in wilderness knowledge and the healing arts. He keeps to himself, and rarely speaks, but the few words he does say are heavily accented, and seem almost absurdly provincial. Where he came from, nobody seems to know. He never spends too long with any one crew, and nobody can really call themselves his friend.

As a swimmer, he has no equal, making him a particularly useful asset in aquatic environments. In his leisure time, he is usually seen either in the water, or sitting in the sun, enjoying the feel of it on his skin.
