Subject     Omar's History

As per yer request I'm tellin ye a bit
about meself so ye know what my
intentions be.  Me real name aint important. 
People on the sea call me
Omar.  I aint captained a ship afore although I could.
 I aint the type to
tell me mates to go hither and thither and do what I says. 


I aint got a family and I aint got many friends cause I aint from around
these
parts.  If ye ask which God I worship I'd tell ye I don't worship any
god to be
true although I pray to the one they call Nuitari when I needs
help with me
magic cause I'm told that be who has the answers in that
regard.  I see the
black moon in the sky just as clear as I see the others. 




If ye try ta give
me a robe it won't fit.  I wear a grey one I took from a
dern braggart who tried
ta keel haul me on me own skiff affer I was kindly
enough to rescue him from a
shipwreck.  Oh, scuse me for forgettin the
introductions but I'm an ogre.  I'm
about 10 feet tall and that's why I was
makin such a fuss over me robe.  Anyway,
if ye try to find me a black robe
it's gonna have ta be tailored fer me
proportions.  

I aint got any needs except the robe and I can get me own if ye
don't make
habit o supplyin' em.  I been around a lotta years and don't need
treatin
like I'm a wet behind the ears initiate.  I can find me own way to
the
library and will work to earn me keep.  I expect ta be treated with
respect,
and if I am ye'll get it straight back.  We'll not mention what happens
when
I'm not treated like an equal.  I been around a lotta years.  

Anyhow,
remember I'm a Sea Dog and don't do well with livin in quarters on
land, but I'm
more'n willing to do what I have ta do ta get me magical
knowledge improved. 
Let me know if ye need anythin at all.  Oh, and if
you're worried about puttin a
giant up in yer quarters don't fret yerselves.
Although I'm sure the Conclave
can take care o their own, I thought ye might
wanna know I aint never killed a
man that aint tried to do me in first and I
always try ta tie em up or somethin
the first few times.  This one feller
kept comin after me after I let him go
several times so I finally threw him
in the water to the sharks.  

-Omar the
Sea Dog, at yer service.
