[You may have seen this very loud blue-haired man around. He's new, but he's hard to miss considering his size and bombastic nature. Right now, he's puttering around some shops on Eltrut...specifically any shops that offer custom goods. He's clearly assessing quality.]

Still figuring out how to use this damn thing...is it on?

[He stops a random passerby to inquire and...yes! They confirm that his video is sending! The hurry along their way because who just asks random strangers things? Weirdos, that's who.]

Alright! So, I've been around for a month or so and I think I've got my sea legs well enough to take the plunge here. For those of you who don't know, name's Darin Altway and I just happen to be a Master Blacksmith! What does that mean for you? Well, if you need tools or gear, then I'm your man! And trust me, my work is affordable and of the utmost quality. Even better news, I come from a port town so I know my way around a ship! So if you need something for your ships that those around here just can't provide...

[He leans in towards the camera conspiratorially.]

And from what I'm seeing...that's a lot...

[He leans back out.]

You should totally hire me! My goal is to open up my own forge somewhere so I gotta get striking the iron while it's hot!

Also, if you've got the scoop on where to find some quality, rare materials and need someone to help you gather them, I'm your man!

[He rubs at the scarred side of his face, thoughtfully.]

Guess there's no help wanted ads up anywhere?
thearchangel: (Here's what we do.)

That feels like the mantra for half of this place. "Screw it, let's make it work."

[At least, in his opinion.]

And hey, they see what you do, it'll be easier to get your own setup.
thearchangel: (Check out this fringe ladies)

Yeah, they say that about your people a lot. Adaptable.

[It's not a bad thing. It's actually one of the more flattering human stereotypes out there.]

Well then. Here's hoping you find an opportunity sooner than later.

Yeah. A lot of the crew I serve with is human. In my ... universe, I guess you'd call it.

[Oh it's handshake time.]

Same here. Good luck.
