Familiar traits
Not blessed with fortune, fame or looks, Swagger is the epitome of the mantra: take what you can, give nothing back. He's not evil or good, not chaotic or lawful, not willing to agree to anything that would put him in a box. He staggers down the road of neutrality, only helping others when it helps himself. Some would look down on his actions, quick to reprimand or lock him in irons for a bit of petty theft, but whatever others think of him, Cap'n Swagger is always true to himself.
Different. That would be one word to describe him. Others might be loud, rude, indifferent, greedy, shrewd, ruthless, cutthroat and drunk. Words of praise to the ears of a pirate.
He yearns for the day when his ship, The Revelry is out of dry-dock and free to roam the seas once more. Until that day comes, he'll be adventuring with his loyal crew (Gruffy and Miro, namely) under the guise of the "Pathfinder Society." There's good money and fame to be had, both of which serve an aspiring pirate lord well. After getting his ship out of dry dock, he's decided to stick around for a bit, use the extra coin to maybe start up his own fleet... someday.
The Good Ship Revelry, Kalos the Bard, 4708 AR
Spoiler:
“In some circles there is a whisper and talk,
Of an old pirate ship and the ports she haunts.
If answers to these questions ye wish to find,
Then gather round and of history I’ll remind.
Of a man and ship that sailed the Sea,
Of Cap’n Swagger and his ship Revelry.
Aboard that ship is cast fit for song,
So fergive me should this tale go long.
Murderers, thieves and cutthroats be,
That crewed the good ship Revelry.
Squat and fierce, one would find,
The Halfling Miro wined and dined.
On flesh and meat the barbarian fed,
To feed a hunger for human head.
Raising a cup he shouts in glee,
“Drink to the good ship Revelry!”
Sittin’ from him across the table,
Is another short one just as able.
Gruffy the cavalier, and sitting beside,
Is the wolf he keeps saddled to ride.
The beast howls and the rider agrees,
“Three cheers for the good ship Revelry!”
At the table’s head a one eyed man saw all,
Of his mess and crew that were enthralled.
They joined to sail, to plunder and steal,
And fer the Cap’n, that be a good deal.
Since him there be none other that sailed these seas.
So were Cap’n Swagger, Master of the good ship Revelry.
More crew there were but names I've not,
Fer my time on the ship short, n' names forgot.
They came and left without a trace,
Lookin’ fer adventure, no matter the place.
One thing from them I’ll guarantee,
They never forgot their time on the good ship Revelry.”
