Captain Pal Sebrit

Human
Height: 6 feet
Bald

Pal Sebrit is a human in his late forties, slowly turning bald, with a bare patch spreading through his pale brown, often untidy hair. He has fairly pale, rugged skin, a squarish face and muddy brown, droopy eyes. He is fit and athletic for his age, although the thick stubble on his neck and cheeks, combined with the deceptively sleepy look that sometimes comes over him, do not make him look particularly healthy. When at work, he generally wears a dark green jacket, fitted with many pockets, stained and, in parts, torn; he rarely bothers to change it.

Pal’s behaviour is an odd combination of curt and casual, snappish and apparently relaxed. He has quick reflexes, a sharp mind, and does not tolerate foolishness from those entrusted to his care. He is friendly enough when not dealing with a crisis. He speaks with an almost incomprehensible accent of indeterminate origin.

Pal is a veteran and hardened explorer of Felarya. He does not live in Felarya, but his job takes him there on a regular basis. He is currently employed as a captain, co-pilot, mechanic and security agent by Felarya Express, but he had visited Felarya many times before joining the company. He has worked as a guide and bodyguard on countless expeditions into the lethal world, accompanying treasure-seekers, foolhardy fairy-hunters, researchers of all kinds, campers, tourists, reporters, tourist guide writers, missionaries and virtually every other type of explorer who has ever ventured into its deadly jungles. If legend is to be believed, he has succeeded in getting almost 37% of them back out again alive – a truly astounding record !
