The Engineer
Name: Chief Somus Veridius
Nation: Mehnzil
Breed: Dragon
Job: Engineer of The Wave Rider
Age: Late-20s
Sex: Male
Despite being young, Chief Somus (he tells sailors to call him Somus or just "Chief" if they feel they have to) is well respected aboard the Wave Rider. Originally hired in an apprentice position to the prior Chief of the ship, Somus saved the crew from a raiding party of privateers who had disabled the ship's sail. While the steam engine aboard The Wave Rider is useful for maneuvering and for slow travel on windless days, Somus used his fiery breath to superheat the boiler, allowing the ship to quickly outdistance their pursuers. The old Chief died in the attack and Somus was granted appointment right then and there. To those familiar with Dragons, it seems odd that Somus breathes fire, especially since that is usually found only among the Priesthood rather than scholars of science-- as are his very elegant wings. Just one more mystery to be talked about on dull voyages, but he weathers it well.
