Name: Gamut Bilsan
Role: Doctor
Nickname: Old lizard, Gecko
Race: Gamow - a humanoid reptilian race averaging around 5 feet in height. Despite being a race of lizard folk, the Gamow have hands and feet similar too that of the primate family. The Gamow are even capable of growing manes of hair on their heads, yet they lack facial hair. Skin color for the Gamow can very somewhat between individuals, but mostly stays as shades of green or green/blue blends. Tails are a part of this races physique, jutting out of their back from just above their bottoms and usually coming down a few inches longer then their legs to brush the ground with the tips.
Though they are small in size, this race of lizard folk is very strong and very lean muscled in their body builds. Constant climbing and hiking in the steep and thick mountain forest of their native homeland has instilled much strength in their limbs, and the added advantage of their tails help them maintain balance at all most all times. Gamow are also very limber which is a trait that helps them greatly in both navigating their homeland and when using their ancestral marital arts styles. Age wise a healthy Gamow can live to be 150 on average.
Age: 73
Skills: Gamut has an extensive knowledge of humanoid bone and muscle structure, and is quite adept at acupuncture and physical therapy. He also has a wealth of knowledge in herbalism and is capable of producing a wide array of medicine provided he has the materials for it.
Combat wise Gamut is a master in 'Hasgu', a martial arts style created by his people. Hasgu allows the user to precisely control the kinetic energy released from their strikes by either condensing it and redirecting it.. Hasgu users are able to make disabling blows that target muscles, nerves and bones. Gamut can even use Hasgu to cause organ damage through plate armor, or split stone in half. This, coupled with his species natural strength mean that the old lizard can easily take on creatures three times his size.
Further more he is inherently agile and dexterous, with a very strong grip. Natural these gifts from his race give him the ability to clamber up near vertical surfaces, so long as there is the slights crave or crevice for him to find purchase in.
Bio: Gamout was an old friend of Markus's father, and was the doctor working to extend his life in spite his disease. When the man passed Gamut tried to talk Markus out of setting sail, saying that he was to young to be a captain. When that failed the old lizard resorted to plan B, which was to invite himself onto the ship and refuse to leave until he convinced the boy to come to his senses. Suffice to say that hasn't happened yet, so Gamut has taken up residence as the ships bone doctor in the mean time.
He'd later become convinced that Markus staffed most of the crew with teenagers just to spite him.
[There is a bit more to his life then this, but I'll wait till later to add it in.]
Appearance: Gamut is about 4'9" in height, with wrinkly pale green scales and long gray hair. He frequently sports a tunic with open spots so that his limbs are less restricted. Most often he wraps cloth bandages around his arms and legs and is rarely seen outside without his straw hat on.
Personality: Stubborn and grouchy. This is probably the first opinion of him at first glance. Gamut greatly dislikes reckless behavior and is quick to chastise someone when he thinks their being rude or idiotic. Usually by smacking them upside the head. As both a perfectionist, and one who prefers tranquility Gamut tends to get irritated when he's being disturbed or if someone disrupts his work.
Deep down though the old lizard is a bit of a softy, and a lot of his stubbornness is born from the fact that he feels protective of people he cares about. Most of the time if he's pestering someone with his arguments, it's because he is worried about them. When he does lighten up he can be very relaxed and pleasant company, and is known to give advice to others over tea.
Weapons: Though he generally fights bare handed when the need for armaments arises Gamut's favors weapons from his homeland. A four foot long quarter staff, and a pair of two foot long sickles.
