Let me change this character to adjust, but I think is a great fit for this game.
Congratulations, and have fun!
I am here, waiting to see if I make the cut.
Will it helps if I "fix" Salty crunch?
To say the truth, the crunch is from another game. I was only proposing the fluff. Yes, his mutagen can't transform him into "Sour" Valaravans right away, but it will eventually.
I promise something. If selected I will review the crunch together with you to make it level with the other players. About Valaravans I am in love with the concept, not so much with the numbers.
My Proposal, hope you like it.
Valaravans Salt, known to his friends as "Salty"
a) Appearance
This 25 years-old Half-Orc does make an impression. A pair of formidable tusks protrude from his face, and his greenish muscles bulge below the simple sailor clothes he wears. He smells like sweat, but there is something nice about his smell. He smells like food. Fulfilling, tasty food.
b) Background
Valaravans was born in a faraway land, and his love for the sea, and his quest for the next cooking recipe, has made him travel far and wide, and now he only recognizes the sea as his home.
A cook by profession, and an Alchemist by trade, he is always looking for that new spice or flavor that can change his day into something special... really special.
Because, what can be more magical that eat or drink something into our bodies, that gives us strength, endurance, happiness, even life itself?
c) Personality
While the others went looking for treasure, Valaravans remained on the sandy beach, examining the giant crab remains.
He took out his drill and knife and started opening the shells, peeking inside with knowledge not only in anatomy, but also in cooking.
He started taking the best cuts for later, he separated the tasty bits from the viscera, and made sure to get all the possible meat from the dead crustaceans, washing and salting it in seawater to keep it from spoiling.
In his mind he was thinking in the possibilities for breakfast. Raw with lemon juice? Covered in flour and deep fried? Garlic-laced and broiled?
So many options.
After getting all the meat he proceeded to take the eyes, the claws and several parts of the carapace. Who knows which kind of alchemical potions he would be able to concoction? Potions to see underwater with ease? An lotion to harden the skin? An elixir to restore teeth to toothless seaman?
His nose, before his ears or eyes, let him know something was wrong. Smell to sweat, to fear. Smell of blood.
He looked up at his companions, running from a big ugly creature, four legged and with horns, chasing them.
He quickly dropped his stuff, and drank to vials from his bandanna. At once his body started to grow and mutate, reaching 9' of height, while a double row of razor sharp teeth protruded from his mouth and claws appeared from his hands. A dorsal fin appeared on his back, and his feet became big and webbed.
He had turn in his alter ego, the big half shark monster, "Sour" Valaravans.
He roared at the creature, and ran to face it.
It was time to get the ingredients for dinner.

I fear it is not active anymore. Good luck, and hope we get to game together some other time!

I need to do a couple announcements.

I will be out this weekend at a great place so I won't be able to post much (or at all). I will be back on Sunday night. Please bot me if needed.

I participate in a "Gaming Community" I learned of on the Paizo Forums, and they are recruiting. So if you are interested, I recommend them fully. Here is their Recruitment post:
Quote: Greetings Gamers!
Woldiangames.com is excited to announce that we are starting a new ongoing game in our campaign world/gaming community! It is called Lakeview Passage. This game will take place in The Floating City, a 6 level city that floats in Turtle Lake. Surrounded by one of the seven magical forests, The Crying Woods, it is the epitome civilization surrounded by its polar opposite: a forest that hates all animal life and signs of civilization. The Big Float has been suffering lately with various difficulties in importing all the necessities of life for 70,000 citizens. Can an adventuring group from Lakeview Passage of the Fence Level make a difference for their neighborhood and even the city at large? Only time and adventure will tell.

The Wold is here to stay! We are not one of those games or sites that will disappear just as you are getting interested in the game and your character. So if you’ve been looking for that quality game that does not go away, we’re your site!
The Wold is a Fantasy Campaign World [using the Pathfinder gamesystem], that originated in the early 1980's. It went online in 1997 and it has evolved into a very large website with several hundred pages of campaign information.
We currently offer 8 permanent ongoing games and many other pickup games for those members who want more. Play by post occurs on our self-made java programmed message boards with their own dice mechanisms, and auto-archiving features. We offer a Message Board called The Giggling Ghost where our gamers can chat "in character" and head out for various “pick-up” adventurers. There is also a private board that allows the players to talk and discuss just about anything in an "out of character format." These boards helps us create that all important sense of community and friendship which is a part of any good group of gamers. Also added is a board called The Catacombs where all character shopping occurs and The Black Genie Center where all Woldians may go to help develop new original material for our campaign world.

Hope to see you there!

Beign Large, Salty can make AoO to any pirate scurrying about near him in a 10' range, even before they get in range to attack him. He gives precedence to those near or in front of Brayan.

Salty keeps swinging his greataxe trying to kill as many enemies as he is able. He targets the Pirate in front or near Brayan, trying to help him. his roaring is heard all around the ship.
Note: He can attack 10' away for his AoO as he is large now.

I realize I didn't roll Salty's fortitude.
Fortitude Roll: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6
He is blinded too...
Salty screams in fury as the flash blinds him temporarily!
"Damn you! I'll rip your guts out!"
Miss Chance for AoO: 1d100 ⇒ 69
Miss Chance for Round 2 Attack: 1d100 ⇒ 24

Free: N/A
HP:11/11
Active effects: Mutagen, Enlarge Person, Raging song.
Salty moves to attack the closes enemy, his large greataxe shinning impressive over the heads of all the others combatants.
Too bad in his rage the hit is wide...
Note: He can attack 10' away for his AoO as he is large now.

Salty turns to see Errol, mad and clearly insulted, and growls at him, barely refraining to punch him.

As will Valaravans.
At the sound of Morven's song Salty roar in rhythm, enjoying the infused rage on his body.
So +1 to STR, HP, Melee Attack and Damage, and Will Saves, -1 to AC

Ok, ranged touch attack vs AC 5 of the space he is aiming... he will go for the one 50ft. away, so its +1 throw anything, -1 size, -8 range penalty, for a total of -8.
Salty gets one of the ballista bolts, his muscles rippling under his green skin, foam flying from his bestial mouth while a roar is heard around the ship.
He lunges the bolt with all of his strength, as far as he is able, to the mass of attacking pirates.
Ranged Touch Attack vs. AC 5: 1d20 - 8 ⇒ (15) - 8 = 7
Misdirection where it falls if he fails: 1d8 ⇒ 7
Damage (Reflex DC 15 for half, +2 throw anything): 4d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 2, 6, 5) + 2 = 17

I was thinking in throwing the ballista itself... :P

Let's try something, Salty has the Throw Anything feat, and as Large and Mutated can lift 1,400 lbs over his head (Strength 24). Is there a barrel or something he can grab and throw the bad guys as soon as they get near (ideally a barrel of something flammable ;) )? As soon as he does that he will grab his now large greataxe...
BTW, Team: Be ready to heal him, as he is not very durable...

Initiative Roll: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
After helping heal the crew, Valaravans grabs a couple of vials and quickly imbibes it's contents.
He drinks his mutagen (+4 STR / -2 INT, +2 natural armor, 10 minutes duration) and Enlarge Person (becomes a large creature, doubling its height and multiplying its weight by 8. +2 size bonus to Strength, a –2 size penalty to Dexterity, and a –1 penalty on attack rolls and AC due to its increased size.
Space of 10 feet and a natural reach of 10 feet. This spell does not change the target's speed, 1 minute duration).
Salty will stand in the closest place to the boarding place, so he can attack the boarding pirates using his reach. Column 18, maybe? The closest to the rail possible.

Salty, not very handy with ranged weapons, keep helping load the ballistae.

Salty keeps checking the ballistae munition.

Salty will help with the ballistae munitions. He takes the time to try and identify what the ones with a glass globe are.

Salty looks briefly at the bodies, licking his tusks, and then resumes his work.

5gp? Damn... I think Salty doesn't have them...

With Elenia:
"Translate? I don't need for you to translate! I am perfectly able to read it! And if you do this for me, I will owe you, big time. And I can make it worth your while!"

Salty sees Elenia casting, and his eyes glow more than usual!
"I can use that! You have to let me learn that! I am sure I can use it to perfect my fish booth!"
Male Half Orc Alchemist (Beastmorph, Vivisectionist) 1 | HP 10/10 | AC 12 T 9 FF 12 CMD 18 | F +3 R +2 W +2 | Init +1 | Perc +3 (Darkvision) | Status: Mutated, Enlarged
Check to see if he recognizes Elenia's casting of Touch of the Sea...
Spellcraft Check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Can he check once daily? :P

Before, to Morven
"We Half Orcs are a sturdy folk, my friend."

On those days can Salty take a look on Elenia spell book? He would much like to get Touch of the Sea too.
Yes, over exaggerated stretches in front of the Captain is Salty's MO.
Perception Check: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

The the elf Salty licks his tusks...
"I learned my lesson, all right. Next time YOU need me to save you fancy a$$ I won't..."
Sorry, Salty, as you all have noticed, is kind of a jerk, and a not very wise jerk...

Salty smiles while laying down slowly, grimacing.
"She likes me, that is for sure..."

Salty could use getting "Touch of the Sea" too!
Salty smiles at Elenia... the effect is unsettling.
"Thanks! Want to sleep next to a hero?"

After the punishment...
Salty is being helped into the ship hold, new scars in his back on top of more old ones, as this is not the first time he has been punished.
With ragged breath says to Brayan, defiantly to the end, while making a gesture that could be interpreted as a smile attempt.
"That was nothing, you give slashes as you swim, old man. I even got sleep during the punishment."
---
On the hold...
Salty licks his tusks at Joan...
"Save face? What about saving lives! Next time I will do more than tell her my opinion about her orders... She needs a man to make her relax a little! But maybe what I need now is something to take my mind out of the pain..."
He winks at Joan.

Salty is angry and frustrated, and goes to sleep without talking to anyone.
I think I will start to take 10 in his cooking.
Ready to continue.

Valaravans smiles at Brayan.
"Don't mention it! And if you go under, who will fix this old ship? We will surely go down soon after!"
He seems more filled with himself the next days, while doing his cooking duties.
Profession (Cook): 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
But obviously his mind is somewhere else... Salt aplenty for everyone!
