One meaty fist cradles a ruffled bird — a trained messenger, a bribe, or simply a pet he is inexplicably fond of — while the other rests casually near the grip of one of his many firearms. He is not in a hurry. He does not need to be. Everyone already knows who is in charge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sculpt leans into character design that sits somewhere between a seasoned crime lord and a merchant of questionable goods — broad, imposing, but with enough quirk in that bird and that cap to make him someone adventurers might actually want to talk to before the shooting starts. He reads equally well as a powerful NPC gatekeeper, a pirate faction boss, or even a wildly flavourful Gunslinger Fighter or Arcane Trickster Rogue player character running a nautical campaign.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe detail work across his layered coat, belt hardware, and tucked firearms gives painters plenty of texture to work with — washes will do wonderful things to those deep fabric folds, and the coat is screaming for a salt-bleached, sun-faded finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuited to adventurers who:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeed a memorable dockside crime boss or pirate faction leader for their campaign\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre running a nautical, pirate, or seafaring adventure and want a truly distinctive NPC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay Gunslinger, Rogue, or flavourful Fighter characters and want something genuinely different\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove painting character-rich sculpts with deep cloth texture and interesting accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant a display piece that tells a story straight out of the box — or rather, off the shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEncounter Hook:\u003c\/strong\u003e The party arrives in Saltmaw to find the harbour completely locked down — no ship leaves without permission from a hippo called Brock, who holds court on the upper deck of a permanently moored galleon.
