Kasto/Home

This is the private home of Kasto del'Fawkraste:
a sturdy stacked stone cabin with a sign saying "Gone Fishing!" hanging on the front door

Interior

A supple blacktip sharkskin mat adorns the golden sand floor of this small room. A small firepit made up of an arrangement of moss covered stones, with a sun-bleached shark's jaw hanging above it, rests between a narrow rotted boat and a salt-stained captain's desk carved with sea creatures pushed up against the driftwood walls. The room holds a mild scent of sea spray. You also see a drowned sailor, a thick port hole window and a driftwood sailor's footlocker with scrimshaw nautical scenes with several things on it.

Sailor

Draped with dripping seaweed, the insubstantial form glows a faint blue-green. His skin is a pale shade, almost white and open sores cover its face and exposed flesh.

Mat

The teeth have been removed from the predator's gigantic mouth and instead decorate the flattened tail like a mosaic.

Wall

Despite being bleached by the sun and horribly warped during an unknown amount of time spent adrift at sea, the boards serve as adequate covering for a home interior. A myriad of cubbyholes are built straight into the wall, providing storage for a plethora of various items and supplies. Strange stains and other obvious battle damage lend to the impression that these boards may not have been willingly tossed into the water.

• On the driftwood wall you see a sun-bleached shark's jaw, a deep blue silk wall panel painted with crashing ocean waves, a stuffed swordfish, a ship's wheel and a glass fishing buoy.

• In the driftwood wall you see a wide fishing net, a framed collection of fishing flies, a wicker tackle box, a wicker fisherman's creel decorated with fish skulls and feathered lures, a polished sana'ati fishing box inlaid with mother-of-pearl fish, an oilcloth bait bag with double-stitched steelsilk seams and a tan fishing hat festooned with colorful lures.

Desk

A variety of aquatic life converge on a large tropical reef which sprawls across the front of the furniture, the carvings warped and faded by submersion in salty water. A pitted iron knob, cast in the shape of an anchor, adorns the wide drawer along the underside and allows for easy access to writing implements stored safely inside. While being horribly marred by an unknown amount of time spent adrift at sea, the desk still remains serviceable as a sturdy surface for working upon.

• On the captain's desk you see a long-stemmed ivory pipe carved with sinuous sea serpents, a grey metal letter opener with a salt pitted blade and a ebonwood handle, a cartographer's geometry compass trimmed in silver leaf, a creamy albatross feather quill with a metal nib, a squat glass inkwell with brass feet, a battered brass cartographer's spyglass, some driftwood, a fossilized nautilus-shell paperweight, a large map of the five provinces, a driftwood jewelry box, a heavy stoneware whiskey jug and a square garnet-trimmed fishbowl.

• In the captain's desk you see a navigator's logbook bound in sun-bleached canvas, a salt-stained tome bound in green leather with "Courses" on the spine and a book bound in black leather titled "Battle of the Reshal Sea".

• Under the captain's desk you see a wooden peg-leg, a khor'vela wood keg shaped like a great four masted galleon at full sail, a blue leather case embossed with a stylized rendition of a female Merelew, a teak bolt box engraved with the image of a large galleon, a sailor's mending kit, an iron-bound treasure chest, a cedar mariner's case with a galleon-shaped lock and a grey sharkskin cartographer's toolbag clasped with a brass compass rose.

Boat

Carved along side this boat made into a bed is the name "Last Chance." Last chance for what is not readily apparent. A ragged pillow and a thread-bare blanket make up the rest of this make-shift bed.

• On the rotted boat you see a corroded anchor chain and a broken boat oar.

• Under the rotted boat you see a wardrobe trunk secured with heavy leather straps.

Fireplace

Detailed with soft, realistic-looking fake moss on the outside, the silvery-grey rocks have been smoothed for safety.

Stand

Set with a solid base, the dark stand rises up to three sets of bars, providing spaces for multiple pieces of armor to be stored.

• On the dragonwood stand you see a shark skull mask, a boat plank shield, some rigging gloves, some salt-stained leathers with a skull and crossbones flag embossed on the left bicep, a sailor's oilskins and some fishscale armor.

Rack

Tiered from a large base shelf up to a smaller one, the dark wood has been smoothed along each shelf and left natural on the outer edges. Smoothly lining the edges, gold filigree creates an elegant vine design that branches off into tiny trumpet-shaped flowers.

• On the dragonwood rack you see an admiral's cane topped with a tempest sapphire, a boarding pike with a leaf blade, a shark-tooth tipped trident, a barnacle encrusted scimitar, a scrimshaw-handled fillet knife veined with ox-blood coral, an admiral's cutlass with a fancifully engraved hilt, a curved bronze dagger with a twisted narwhal horn handle, a long-bladed falchion with a half-basket hilt and a pirate's scimitar tied with a black silk scarf.

Footlocker

Broad sections of sun-bleached bone are affixed to a sturdy driftwood frame using a seaworthy adhesive, creating this large piece of ship's luggage. Each of the square shaped plates are scrimshawed with a tiny scene showing the daily activities aboard a vessel and the hardships of sea life. Salt-pitted iron bands reinforce the footlocker against damage, engraved with images of merfolk and sea serpents.

• On the sailor's footlocker you see a scrimshaw marlinspike, a porcelain plate painted with the figure of Eluned, a sapphire-eyed cambrinth pirate, an oval of iridescent mother-of-pearl, some heavy rope knots, a white shark's tooth, a dried yellow starfish, a detailed cameo ring carved with the likeness of a merelew woman, a shark's tooth suspended from a braided cord and some blackened shark's teeth.

• In the sailor's footlocker you see a black cotton booty bag with braided leather drawstrings, a salt-stained burlap lootsack, a blue suede pouch accented by a beaded seagull feather, a silvery-blue sailcloth boat cloak fastened with four silver buttons, an admiral's sailcloth backpack adorned with gleaming brass buttons, a large copper hoop earring, a black bandana painted with dancing skeletons, a black sailor hat embroidered with a skull and crossbones, a faded black tabard emblazoned with a skull and crossbones, a scaly green coverall with cloth tentacles sewn to the shoulders, a mesh diver's belt with small steel hooks, a steel handled diver's knife with a serrated edge, a sailor's oilcloth rain poncho lined in thick fleece, a jade ocarina etched with the image of a tall ship, a rotten leather tricorn, a whip-thin electric eel, some miniature golden tridents, some miniature cutlasses, some miniature undead pirate mice, a pair of crisp white gloves, an admiral's tricorne hat, a rugged leather bandolier, a circular hat box, a polished sea pebble bracelet, a pair of heavy black boots with steel buckles, a rust-colored admiral's greatcoat with embroidered cuffs, a leather sheath with bronze banding around the mouth and some reinforced sharkskin pants with rough leather lacing.
