Captain Treven

From Stormravengaming

Captain Treven was captain of the merchant vessel the Golden Dawn, a small ship with a crew of fewer than twenty. He was a good and fair man who commanded the respect of his crew.

Treven fell gravely ill while at sea, and he was soon unable to rise from his bunk. Dabby, the ship's cook and the closest thing to a doctor, cared for him as best he could while the ship made for port to try to find a healer, but he passed away just a day before the ship arrived at Kingsport. Treven was buried at sea.

Some of the crew suspected Carlin, the ship's second in command and a man of violence and an ill temper, of possibly causing the captain's death, or at least of hastening it along. But there was no evidence to support an accusation.

Treven is survived by his son, who inherited his ship and will probably take over as captain as soon as he is released from his contract captaining another vessel for the Grumand Shipping Company.
