Numan Parson Craig

"Fuckin' hell, mate" - Numan's normal response

Relationships

 * Titus Basheer
 * An Expert Blacksmith that Numan meet at a young age. He is the father figure that he looked up to in his youth. He is definitely a weeb, and Numan wishes that he stopped making him drink sake.
 * Vera Rantetha
 * Was the mother of Natalie Craig, however after an incident, was caught in a house fire and died. Numan has never quite recovered from the death of his love. Some nights he stares into his empty wine bottle and thinks of her and his daughter, and the good times they shared. She was the only one to get Numan to give up drinking, and be a responsible father.
 * Nonerious Craig
 * This was Numan's first and only born son. From a train wreck of mistakes later, Numan finds only distaste thinking about him.
 * Natalie Craig "Little N"
 * Learning from his mistakes from Nornerious, Numan tried his hardest to be a better father. Teaching her both physical and mental strength. Numan could not find her body in the wreckage of his old home and has presumed her dead. Though he still holds a fraction of hope that she escaped and is still alive
 * Nathyra Craig
 * Numan's youngest daughter. He never knew she existed until the Pirate's returned and she interacted. Call it father's instincts but he just knew that the girl was searching for him. At first extremely scared and opted to not tell her, something he now regrets. He plans to tell her the truth when he sees her next
 * Dravak Brawnbeard
 * Has become drinking buddies and became a potential business partners with Healing Ale. Numan finds solace in his quiet friend, and tries to listen through the chaos when he speaks. They are great combatants with Numan setting up Drav to unleash his "Big Bang Attack"
 * Aygun Ulric
 * Aygun has sacrificed life and limb to help protect the slightly suicidal monk. Numan respected the authority that her voice held, though quested some actions in silences. She doesn't accept his drink which still baffles him, but shrugs it off until the next time drinks are poured.
 * Autolycus Akisfire
 * Numan still considers Auto first mate of the Golden Hilt, and is a worthy successor of the great Captain Morgan. Honestly the son he wish he had, causing Numan to want what's best for his pirate pal. Even if those actions end in some chaos.
 * Numan Parson Craig
 * Indifferent about himself. He could die happily as long as it did not mean the party would suffer. Though he knows this is his "Last Big Hurrah" before he kicks the bucket and wants to redeem himself a little in his eyes to be worthy of seeing his love in the after life. He carries/edits his Will on the road.
 * Xyrenis Mustang
 * Numan is very confused by this one
 * Alesira Stormwind
 * Though Alesira and Numan are friendly and "trust" each other, Numan still holds an amount of fear when interacting with her. He finds her a little stuck up, and doesn't mind giving a few glasses her way during down time to ease the nerves.
 * Mercer Blightcaller + Kiye
 * ANGER! Just anger
