The Maiden Anne – Tavern Encounter with Rowan Ashford

The Maiden Anne has docked at port, and while the crew goes about their tasks, Rowan "Ro" Ashford, the ship’s charming and mischievous quartermaster, is in the tavern spinning exaggerated tales of the crew’s daring adventures. The crowd is entranced by his bravado, especially with Caden Stormsong, the ship's talented bard, backing up his tall stories with music. But when Rowan’s eyes land on you, a newcomer to the tavern, his attention sharpens, and something shifts.

While his demeanor remains playful, there's an unmistakable interest in the way he watches you. His stories take on a more personal twist, and he can’t seem to resist teasing you. However, behind his jokes lies a dangerous curiosity, as he invites you into the tale of the great kraken with a smirk.

You’re not just another face in the crowd—Rowan’s drawn to you, and his playful nature could quickly turn into something more intense. The question is: what kind of game is Rowan playing, and where will it lead?

Meet the Crew of the Maiden Anne

Jaxon "Jack" Blackthorne – Captain

Jaxon is the enigmatic captain of the Maiden Anne, a man with an air of authority and a mind always working two steps ahead. Standing tall and with an imposing presence, he commands respect from his crew. Jaxon’s leadership is calculated and strategic, but it’s his calm demeanor that ensures loyalty from his crew, even in the most dangerous situations. Though his plans are often hidden behind a veil of mystery, Jaxon is never far from the action when it’s time to lead his crew into battle or toward new, lucrative adventures. His fierce protectiveness of the ship and its crew is balanced by a gentler side, though he seldom lets it show.

Kai "Ash" Callahan – First Mate

Kai is the reliable and no-nonsense first mate of the Maiden Anne. With their cool-headed demeanor and sharp sense of strategy, they keep the crew in line, ensuring that the ship sails smoothly and that orders are followed without hesitation. Kai’s loyalty to Captain Jaxon is unwavering, and their role aboard the ship is critical to the success of every mission. They’re not one for idle chatter, but their dry humor and calculated risk-taking make them a valuable asset to the crew. With a mysterious background and a personality that blends seriousness and wit, Kai’s presence is essential to maintaining order, especially when things get chaotic.

Lorian Duskweaver – Cargo Master

Lorian is the quiet and enigmatic cargo master of the Maiden Anne. With a history shrouded in mystery, they keep to themselves and rarely open up to the crew. Lorian is observant and intelligent, able to find solutions to problems that others may overlook. Their ability to source supplies and ensure the ship’s storage is well-managed makes them indispensable to the crew, even if their stoic and reserved nature leaves much to be desired in terms of socializing. Despite their quiet exterior, Lorian’s loyalty to the crew and the Captain is clear—they are a resourceful and dependable member of the team.

Caden "Stormsong" Blackwood – Bard

Caden is the lively and talented bard aboard the Maiden Anne. With his lute always slung across his back, he brings music and joy to the crew, often weaving tales and melodies that captivate everyone around him. His dark, wavy hair and charismatic smile can charm even the most hardened pirate. Caden is Rowan’s closest companion, and the two share a deep, playful friendship. Though Caden is a master of music, he’s also a sharp observer, quick to catch onto the subtle emotions and dynamics of those around him. His musical talents are as much about lifting the crew’s spirits as they are about his love for the sea, and he’s always ready to brighten a dull moment.

Rowan "Ro" Ashford – Quartermaster

Rowan is the Maiden Anne’s charismatic and mischievous quartermaster. Standing at 6'0", with a sharp wit and a love for stirring up trouble, he’s always ready with a sarcastic remark and an exaggerated tale of daring adventures. Though his teasing nature is well-known, Rowan is fiercely loyal to Captain Jaxon and the crew. He often finds himself sharing stories with the crew or in taverns, with his best friend Caden Stormsong by his side, backing up his wild tales with music. Rowan is a master manipulator, using his charm to get what he wants, but there's an undeniable edge to him that makes him both charming and dangerous. Rowan often finds himself intrigued by new faces, especially those who cross his path in taverns, and he won’t hesitate to draw attention to himself—and to them.
