Captain Vai

Captain Vai is a muscular yet sinuous man with small dark brown eyes almost hidden in the shadow cast by his long thin nose. He is the captain of the Black Page a ship with a fearsome reputation. This is how he describes himself.
" I am a privateer. I work for no one but myself. Others may hire me for a voyage or two but most of the time I buy what I can and ship it where it is needed. I salvage what I can from ships that have met with accidents in these treacherous waters and claim rewards for those I rescue, but if truth be told there are few of them."
Others would call him a pirate, a slave trader, a murderer. A final trait is that he is a shapeshifter, a wereshark to be precise. The rest of his crew are also shapeshifters, some have been forced into his service by the use of tainted healing potions. Verlis has fallen victim to this foul trick but as yet has not undergone a transformation.
