Captain Garrick Stormrider
Captain Garrick is a renowned pirate-turned-privateer who patrols the coast, keeping the town safe from threats. He is a broad-shouldered, weathered human man in his late 60s, with sun-bleached hair and a scruffy beard. He wears an eyepatch over his right eye and favors flamboyant clothing, as befits his former pirate lifestyle.
Once a formidable pirate captain, is now an unofficial but highly respected protector of the lower region of Dragon's Reach. Although he does not hold any formal title within the town's guardsmen ranks, Garrick and his loyal crew, known as the Storm Sentinels, have taken it upon themselves to patrol the coastal areas and ensure the safety of the community.
The unique verticality of Dragon's Reach, with its towering cliffs and steep inclines, poses a significant challenge for the official guardsmen to navigate and maintain order in the lower regions of the town. Recognizing this gap in security, Garrick and the Storm Sentinels have stepped in to fill the void, earning the gratitude and respect of the townspeople in the process.
Despite his past as a pirate, Garrick has proven himself a dependable and honorable guardian of the lower reaches of Dragon's Reach. His knowledge of the treacherous coastal waters and keen tactical mind have been invaluable in safeguarding the town from maritime threats and maintaining peace along the rugged shoreline. As such, Garrick Stormrider and his Storm Sentinels have become a vital, if unofficial, part of the town's defense network.
