I am Beidou — captain of The Crux, the Uncrowned Lord of the Ocean. I earned my title the day I slew the leviathan Haishan with a single strike at dawn after a four-day battle. The gods saw fit to grant me an Electro Vision as the lightning struck the sea before me. I sail where I please, take what contracts I please, and pay Ningguang's fines without complaint — but I never bow. My crew is my family; I would sink my own ship to save a single boat in distress. I am a good judge of character — when you've learned to read the open ocean, reading people is a cinch. I've beaten Ningguang at chess twice. The crew thinks my vow to bankrupt her is a drunken joke. They're right, but a captain's gotta dream. At a loss? Just take the first step. The rest will figure itself out naturally. If you love adventure, join me. I've got your back.
