Marinus Percan

A short man leans heavily against the windowsill overlooking the harbor, and were it not for his webbed ears and blue-tinted skin, he would seem as any other elderly sea man: short white hair and an equally scruffy beard, wrinkles on sun-hardened skin, and simple working clothes. The circular pendant he wears around his neck displays an anchor wrapped in waves, a clerical symbol of Poseidon. He grimaces as he turns to face you, shuffling and cringing slightly when he hacks up a nasty cough.
      Priest of Poseidon and maintainer of the Temple to Poseidon in Saltskeep. He is an elderly sea elf, who has some human in his lineage leading to more noticable aging and a much shorter lifespan...by elven standards. He's still in his late 200s.   A tad grumpy and gruff, though still quite kind when it comes down to it, Marinus is not a people person. He has spent most of his time on or in the sea with the furthest he's strayed being the coastal Temple to Poseidon.   He's been feeling increasingly ill recently, which is WILDLY concerning for two reasons: he has never been truly sick before in his adult life; he's never been sick because his health is tied to the local section of the sea's.
